Drudge Title: India Blames White House For Shooting
Top State Department officials including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have been working behind the scenes to assuage Indian anger following the attack on a Sikh temple in Wisconsin over the weekend by an Army veteran and alleged former white supremacist.
Indian government officials and Sikh leaders across India were outraged by the attack that left 6 dead, including 4 Indian nationals, at a Sikh temple near Milwaukee and called on the U.S. to do more to protect Sikhs living in the United Sates. Clinton called Indian Foreign Minister S.M. Krishna from her stop in South Africa Monday after Krishna criticized the U.S. for failed policies and a growing trend of violent incidents against religious minorities...

He himself may have been acting all by himself but his indoctrination is very mainstream.

I won’t even wade into what this jackhole was thinking.
He got himself killed real good.
It’s a shame he had to take others with him.
No it is not.
All I know is a white boy stopped the killin by being armed and standing up.
He even waved folks off whole he was dealing with the skinhead asshole and taking shots.
I have lived in this country all My life from N to S and E to W, I have never met a skinhead EVER!
I know you want to brush it all under the carpet and move on but I am still curious to know what he was thinking. What his hatred against brown people was. What did we do wrong that he had to take such a violent extreme step. Just the fact that we are here and we have a different skin color?
A racist is not just a random loner but a product of society, government and media. This guy even had his band called "End Apathy".
It was one lone nut.
As have said before, an American cop stopped him.
Unfortunately for me that’s not quite the end of the story.
You want to pretend there are no racists in the US that’s your prerogative. I know the US far too well not to buy that. And I lived in AL for 2 years and actually met some self proclaimed “racists”.
I have a friend that ran an entire town in AL.
He is no racist.
He left the place rather than be labelled
He left because it was not his burden to bear, and he had ample places to fulfill his life in these united states.
My own Brother was persecuted as a shop owner in India.
He is a good soul, but he has fled.
The right to bear arms in America has a greater function than mere survival, it forces the individual to recognize that it is not a fictional ‘state’ that has authority, but every able, armed individual working in concert. It forces true democracy and responsibility and is a very real parallel to the Sikhism's own view on the importance of Sangas(Ancient Indian republics that the Sikh Gurus wished to revive)
Thank you for your support, but personally, if it isn't already the case, arm yourself and take up true democracy and responsibility. Encourage others to do the same. The more people who do this, the less chance there is of weak minded people (like the Wisconsin shooter) who are fundamentally never true adults because they no more recognize the individuals role in upholding truth and justice than a herd animal understands their bondage to the farmer—they only see different forms of collectives and scramble in the hope that the collective that most resembles them will treat them with love and kindness.
They don’’t care what principles are universally right and true, only which collective mothers them more. They remain children and react as children, throwing fits when they don't get their way.
Along with the right to bear arms comes a much greater burden, that is to use the weapon responsibly. That is...to use it only and only in self defense, in defense of others and in service of the nation. Sikhs have that mental discipline, Americans don’t.
Amen
Wow. That’s a really bizarre statement.
You must have missed how we crushed Saddam, crushed the Taliban. We should have left immediately, but instead we tried to nation build without crushing the underlying ideology of Islam. In WWII we did not make that mistake, we crushed the underlying ideologies of Nazism and Nippon militarism before nation building. So we ended up with stupid ROEs and political objectives, but make no mistake about it - our warriors crushed the best Islam could offer up, and always will.
Oh, and further - skinhead racist whiteboys can burn in Hell soonest. That doesn’t change the fact that you’re spewing quite a lot of nonsense.
And I will stick by what I said. In an evenly matched fight whiteboys will piss in their pants when they face Muslims. They are just whiteboys not Sikhs.
