After Threats, Police in India Promise Protection for TV Evangelist
BANGALORE, India (RNS) Shiv Sena, a hard-line Hindu group, is threatening to disrupt a massive healing crusade planned by television evangelist Benny Hinn, but police promise they will provide adequate security

The Shiv Sena is not a "Hindu group" it is a right wing political group with a supposedly hardline "Hindu" agenda. Now this is the problem with some of your western and Christian propagandist reporting. The Shiv Sena is restricted to certain pockets of India and they hardly win even 5% of overall votes in Indian elections. They do not represent the hindus nor have the hindus given them any kind of political or religious mandate. These guys gain their publicity with these kind of antics. India knows well how to handle these idiots and the "western" media needn't create more trouble by spreading misinformation. And one more thing, in a free country everybody has the right to protest as long as it doesnt turn violent.

Anyway the Shiv Sena isnt anywhere near the guys in grey crep in your country. Bad examples, if thats what you are looking for, are everywhere and not difficult to find. Even we people here know about the KKK and the "Dot Busters".
