Religious procession stoned, tension in Lucknow

Sunnis of UP are going crazy under Akhilesh Government attacking Shia and Hindu processions ...
 
. . . .
Can't believe Hindu's have to take this. Wish another 2002 riot happens in UP. These Muslims need to be put in their place.

Hindus have nothing to do with this. Its Sunni Vs Shia.

Happens, every year during Ramzan.

Yes indeed It happens every year during Ramzaan, It did happened previous year also, but never-mind there were elaborate police force arrangements concerning the same and thank-god there were no further clashes...
 
. . .
These Muslims wouldn't know what peace is if it hit them 300 miles per hour. They are savages.

And what makes you thing it wasn't Hindus who started pelting stones try to expolite the situation to blame Islam or Muslims just like you are. Or you checked the identities of all involved in pelting and they were card carrying Muslims?

Yasoob Abbas, condemning the violence, alleged that it was all part of a pre-meditated plan to disrupt the holy month of Ramzan.Additional Director General of Police (Law and Order) Arun Kumar told IANS that the people who tried to disrupt the procession have been identified

And they are?

Because it's well known that Shia vs Sunni clashes occur in this city. Stay in your weird world with your conspiracy theories my simple friend :)

Really is it that why you got caught and had to applogize ''Oh my mistake''.
