I agree. I will defend freedom of speech till my last breath, but that hashtag is hate speech.

You really are @Zarvan's long-lost brother.

I know. But they derail the discussion, and its a waste of time to even engage with them. Engaging them gives them an audience. There must be a Freudian explanation for their patheticness, but let them wallow in that. She is not a serious journo is highly evident from the fact, that she does not...

Death penalty is wrong. Even in rape or murder. That's me the ultraliberal speaking. But in cases of apostasy or blasphemy, it is not only wrong, but immoral too. It then polices the thoughts of its citizenry, and tamps down on the birth of ideas. But are you really asking this question, or...

I was repasting what I had replied to her. Her article is not an update, as it uses 5 year old data, when much has changed in that five years. And equally serious, and detailed articles have come out in all major Indian newspapers. People know. And in fact, they were an election issue last time...

You and @Zarvan are birds of the same feather. There should be a sarcasm tag in PDF.

@DIRECT ACTION I hate to say it, but @Keel is right here. We are definitely not more powerful than Japan. USA, Russia, China, UK, France, Japan, Brazil are all more powerful than India at the present.

The 'Maharaj' of Controversy: Sakshi Defiant on Statements He tells NDTV that his government is willing to support the death penalty for conversions

Both are equally terrible. And the guy who said it is not random stranger, but a Member of the Parliament himself, where his party holds a majority. So yes, his statements have more import, and must be censured, not defended or laughed away. Because at least it shows the guy is not fit to be a...

Two of those articles I have read before, and are good. I have specifically pointed out the mistakes in her article, and I fail to understand how a wrong article adds value. The only value it adds is to lies and propaganda.

I had mentioned the points before in this thread too: Let me judge your claims - Naxals are CPI(ML) not CPI(M). CPI(M) is in power in Tripura, and the two parties have no single member in common. UAVs are specifically not used in Naxal operations. There has been a lot of debate in India bout it...

Neither @Keel or @sabena siddiqi are interested in facts. I tried giving them the real picture, but they are more interested in propaganda than reality.

Yeah who needs enemies, when we have friends like these?

India: MP Sakshi Maharaj vows death sentences for Hindus converting to Islam or Christianity BJP's MP Sakshi Maharaj with Indian prime minister Narendra Modi(Facebook) An Indian lawmaker with the ruling Hindu conservative party has claimed death sentences should be introduced for people who...

Our genes will kill us all.

Tibet has a sixty year history of insurgency. Same as Kashmir, or even the Naxals. And newsflash, the vast majority of modern India was actually united under the Mughals, the Delhi Sultanate, the Marathas, the Gupta empire and so on. Megasthenes named his book Indica, not countries of south asia...

The condemnation/censure of Hebdo does more than anything else to discredit Muslims and Islam. Because the implication is really clear - make fun of other religions, and its A-OK. Make fun of Islam, and be prepared to die because to quote people in this forum, "you don't tangle with thugs; you...

Sovereign comes from Old French word souverain which means ultimate. A sovereign state has to have an internationally accepted declaration of statehood, something California does not have. And the Supremacy Clause in the US directly states that federal laws may overrule state laws. Examples are...

As if none of those Indian insurgencies have multi-year histories? None of these insurgencies are recent in India either. And when did I downplay problems? I mentioned China has problems, as does India, as does every Asian country. I gave in fact, reasons for the naxalite problem, and you read...

As I mentioned at least thrice in this thread, she overstates the incidents - and these have happened before - in the 60s, 70s and 80s. In fact Naxalite violence has decreased, and been decreasing for the last 4 years. But no, you did not read the thread, but came here to spout your nonsense...
