Iranian President says no gay people in Iran


Ok, now another reason not to go to Iran… No Gay People. Now I understand his bad haircut. In a question and answer after his speech at Columbia University, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad responded to a question from the audience concerning Iran’s abuse of gays and women “In Iran, we don't have homosexuals like in your country”.
n Iran, we don't have homosexuals like in your country” Ahmadinejad also was confronted with Amnesty International figures suggesting that Iran had executed 200 people this year, including people labeled as homosexuals. Ahmadinejad is reported to have replied, "Don't you have capital punishment in the United States? You do too. In Iran there is capital punishment." What a nut!
