"When I first put the flag in my car my family told me I was being idiotic and that I'd be carjacked by skinheads or the Christian Coalition, whichever found me first, and for this reason I've opted out of telling my family, I'm not ready to hear a lecture full of "I told you so," and "America does not like Iran, it is not a good time for us." I have been told on multiple occasions that it is not the proper time to attempt a political statement, but what people fail to see is that I'm not making a political statement. I did not purchase this flag to say "I am Iranian! Nuclear technology or not I support my country!"
