Briton jailed four years in Dubai for a speck of cannabis on the tread of his shoe.
The ensuing Fark thread somehow manages to claim that Amerika [sic] is worse. (Search for the username King Something.)
Even apart from some people's astonishing inability to sort things along a continuum, it occurs to me that, unlike the guy in the Dubai jail, anyone currently in the U.S. is free to leave. Anyone not currently in this country is free never to come here, if that's how you happen to feel.
Vote with your feet. We'll all be better off.
