A shame that two people were killed for their sexual orientation, while that may be the crux here to martin, it is not to me. IMO it's a baseless crime and would be completely wrong if it was here in the US. Different counties, municipalities, states, and even countries pick and choose what is right or wrong for their inclusive communities. I'm glad that there's a space in the world for people who do believe what they believe and are free to express it as such, and if that means repressing homosexuality or free thinking then that's what it is.

Since this is not the US, and "Iran enforces Islamic Sharia law, which dictates the death penalty for gay sex," it is unfortunate. We don't get to pick where we are born, what family we are born into, what time period, what sex or sexual orientation, body type etc. It is just luck of the draw, and I consider myself quite lucky.
