Perez Hilton Quotes

At that time Iran was a Muslim theocracy and if there were overt homosexuality that was officially discovered, the heretics would be killed. The logic of the government was that since they had killed the homosexuals, there were none left.

If the President was to be believed, Iran was the only exception.
