Iranian police to install cameras in public to identify, penalize unveiled women

In a further attempt to rein in increasing numbers of women defying Iran's dress code, authorities are installing cameras in public places and thoroughfares to identify and penalize unveiled women, the police announced on Saturday.

If identified, violators will receive "warning text messages as to the consequences," police said in a statement.

The move is aimed at "preventing resistance against the hijab law," said the statement, carried by the judiciary's Mizan news agency and other state media, adding such resistance tarnishes the country's spiritual image and spreads insecurity.

A growing number of Iranian women have been ditching their veils since the death of a 22-year-old Kurdish woman in the custody of the morality police last September. Mahsa Amini had been detained for allegedly violating the hijab rule. Security forces violently put down the revolt.

I'm sure the Xtian right may want similar monitoring in this country.

2. A deep hatred of women spreads across the globe.

Women being sent to their deaths, jail, torture, rape.
Denied basic human rights.

American children slaughtered in classrooms.
Putin torturing, raping, murdering children in Ukraine.

At least the men in Ukraine are fighting the good fight.

3. Idahoan police to install cameras at state lines?

In an effort to discourage women from leaving the state for legal abortions? That day may not be too far off. Indeed, the Taliban morality police seem to be writing the playbook for red state repression these days.
