And still they march.

I would like to take a moment to say how proud I am of those protesters in Iran who still haven't given up.  After death, imprisonment, torturing, being told by religious and sectoral leaders to quit, after the many, many things that they've gone through, there are still people who care enough about their rights to stand up for what they believe in.  That's real strength.

Would that we cared as much here.  It's time that I started paying attention to local politics.
