While I would NEVER defend anyone attacking another human being for just being who they are or believing what they believe, an occasional act of violence, usually perpetrated by one or two people without plans aforethought does not compare in any way with burning alive three innocent people by a mob who'd planned it ahead of time and who prevented others from trying to extinguish the flames.
The two boys were aged 8 and 10 if I remember correctly.
IT SAYS A LOT ABOUT YOU THAT YOU TRY TO DEFEND OR MINIMIZE SUCH AN ACT.

First of all get this straight:
I condemn such acts in the harshest possible words. And I fully agree with the death sentences meted out to the perpetrators.  
 
does not compare in any way with burning alive three innocent people by a mob who'd planned it ahead of time and who prevented others from trying to extinguish the flames.
 
All those involved have already been punished. Get over your emotions.
 
A hate crime is a hate crime whether done ramdomly by a couple of people or organised by a mob both are equally ghastly. Now you dont try to defend or minimise such acts when perpetrated on Indians in your country.
