When the state protect purity

The last fashion in Tehran.

In the spirit of fairness, the woman was beaten because of her arrest resistance and not because of her dress code. However this doesn’t change the point that this is the natural development  when state policing moral code - what you watch on TV, what web sites can you visit and how you dress.  

One might argue that I’m exaggerating - after all shouldn’t the police enforce dress code at all? shouldn’t the police stop people from walking naked in the streets? But the fact is that social restrictions are much more effective than regulations and when we over regulate we transfer the responsibilities from the individual and the society to the state and only make them weaker.
