Assam govt mulls arming Muslims in Bodo areas

[Dillinger]

every citizen has right to kill other in self defence. People in far flung areas cannot be possibly provided security by state and it makes sense to allow them to carry weapons.
Is not that the whole idea of licensed firearm. You can defend yourself from immidiate danger before state can respond.

Not much into law are you, no citizen has the right to "kill" people in self defense just like that, we don't have stand your ground laws or stuff like that, unless one of them plants a knife in an attacking Bodo's back and can prove circumstances wherein his life was in danger. This isn't a situation where you're getting mugged in the street and defend yourself, this is about forming a large militia, possibly organised, which will not be under the specific authority of the state or its institutions in terms of its CnC. IF they form illegitimate militias then they are militants just like naxals or the ranvir sena, de facto they have challenged the authority of the state and therefore have waged war against it.

They will not be provided with weapons, should not be provided with weapons, even if the damn soil turns red with their blood. Besides given the track record, these folks can forget about any actual protection. Last time the great protector of the realm signed the Assam Accord and provided a blanket pardon to all the people who were convicted (yes there were convictions, over 300) in the Nellie massacre.

Licensed fireamrs has a vetting process to make sure the people who get the guns are not 'crazy.'

Even if you do arm them, when another riot occurs, there will be bloodbath.

not arm everybody, but a few who are selected by govt and can effectively defend before reinforcement comes.

I wonder why Nellie isn't talked about more, since it was far more gruesome than Godhra I think.

My solution is to get a lot of the migrant out of the Bodo lands.

And then actually deliver services, infrastructure. The region is massively neglected.

They have the state police and the CAPFs, it is up to the state government and ultimately the Home ministry at the center to implement them properly to ensure peace. Said folks in the police and the CAPFs are the "few who are selected by the govt.".

And I don't trust Indians with firearms. EVER.

Last thing we need is more guns in our region

India is showing all the signs of a failed state. Any country that cannot impose law and order is destined to fail.

Muslims from all over, particularly BD and Pakistan ought to send collected donations of cash to these people to help them buy weapons.

Exactly why should we expend blood, sweat and gold to secure illegal immigrants, we've spent enough on the fencing and the patrolling of the border. The Bodos are guilty only of taking the law in to their own hands, if anything it should be our authorities evicting the illegals, by application of force with extreme prejudice if necessary.

Yes, so they can kill, rape too.

And Bodos aren't going to be intimidated either way.

Absolutely correct sir.And to be honest,the Bodos,in these case atleast were guilty of nothing.You said that their only guilt was to take the law on their hands,fine.Let me ask you and everyone something,did the government leave them with any other choice??What has government done so far to evict these illegal bastards from India's land??Infact successive governments have encouraged them for their own vested interests,there by changing the local demographics for the worse.

These so called act of ethnic cleansing or whatever by these Bodos is an wake up call for the GoI.Evict those bastards for the good or far worse days wait them ahead.

Bodo's have been intimidated enough for them to take up arms. Which part of this are you blind too ?

As for Dillinger hating BD'ians, there is no evidence of that. Like all law abiding and patriotic citizens he appears to be clear about evicting illegal aliens from India.

You on the other hand seems to hate Indians and India. You might want to think about that.
