Hi, we are Indians! Come, call us dumb, stupid, we won’t mind. We ourselves say ill things about Biharis, haryanvis, bengalis or any other, for that matter. We crack jokes potraying Sardars as stupid people even on national television. We call our government irresponsible, corrupt and our police dishonest. Its all well.

BUT, the minute you say a word about our religion, we will kill you! The thing you say might be rational, might not be rational, but who cares! we won’t even listen to you but start shouting and then you have it. you are gone buddy. Your time’s up.

As an Indian, I have seen numerous instances where people have acted this way. How do we explain this attitude? Despite of being educated, we show such intollerance. Its not that all are like this but majority are, say 90%.

There was this Danish cartoonist who made a controversial cartoon. Muslims in India started shouting slogans, they took to streets demanding the cartoonist dead. I bet they hadn’t even seen the cartoon. Neither had I. So, I don’t know whether it was that outrageous but even these protestors hadn’t. This is just one case, every religious community in India behaves the same way.

There’s this band “SLAYER” which has some anti-christian songs. its been a big hit elsewhere but it was banned in India as Christians went up to the minority commision to get it banned.

Why do we indians behave this way? Its time we grew above such things. A better alternate would be to ask the person responsible for a reason of his controversial views. we just want to kill everyone who goes against our beliefs, HUH, and we say that we are a democracy!!!!!!!!!!
