The problems with the Religious Police will never end. This time, According to Arab News, “a group of men were detained by the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice [The Religious Police] for trying to help a woman who screamed for help as she was being forcibly taken away by commission members.” What amazed me is the statement of the commission member who said “What that man did does not represent the commission.” I don’t understand this. Who the hell does this man represent? The Saudi Human Rights Center?

I’m thinking of buying some t-shirts from Threadless. Cool tees, but I’m afraid of the size difference between the US and here. Anyone knows anything about this?
