Iranian Actress to Boycott Oscars Over Trump's Immigration Stance

 Iranian actress Taraneh Alidoosti, the star of best foreign language film nominee "The Salesman," has announced that she will be boycotting the Oscars over President Trump's expected restrictions on immigration to the United States.

"Trump's visa ban for Iranians is racist," Alidoosti tweeted earlier today. "Whether this will include a cultural event or not, I won't attend the #AcademyAwards 2017 in protest."

Fine with me. She can go back to her shit hole country and participate in the Iranian Oscars where if you win you get your head cut off for creating subversive garbage.

Let me translate for Ms Alidoosti.
Dear American Scum.  Because I wasn't going to win the Oscar and wouldn't be able to use my acceptance speech to bash the evil satin in front of a live audience, I am making this feeble attempt to be a bitch on some 3rd rate Network blog that no one will see.  Death to America,  Thank you.  Please watch my movie on NetFlix.
