We snivel and complain when they come over here and try to impose their culture and beliefs on us. Yet we line up to support a woman like this when she does the exact same thing to them. A corner coffee shop is no place press the issue. She did so at her peril, and paid the price. If she doesn't like the laws over there, she should just come home and STFU about it.

I can't imagine going to another country, a repressive one at that, and thinking I'm gonna change them. She's not some Saudi who grew up there and had no other options. She CHOSE to go there. Hey, if I visit N. Korea by my own choice, I'm gonna have to hold my tongue, get used to gov't. minders and not ask too many questions. That's how those countries roll and it ain't my place to preach to them, especially when on their soil.
