December 6 has come and gone (for the unintiated it is the day the Babri masjid was demolished), fortunately there was no untoward incident, the reason might be because there was sufficient security arrangements, and police were all over the place. But unfortunately the Muslims in some parts of country declared it as a black day and demonstrated in public places wearing black shirts. I am not against demonstration and every human being has a right to do it in a democratic country. But is it right on the part of the Muslim community to demonstrate and show their displeasure just after the Mumbai blasts have happened and the wounds are still fresh in the minds of the people. This is one of the reasons Muslims are alieanated from the mainstream. Your response.

I think sometime we all feel anger, and do things we believe is right only to alienate ourselves to others. It is sometimes very hard to look at things from another's perspective. Many religions teach their people that they are victims of something or someone, they always see themselves as victims and everyone else as the perpetrators. But I am thankful for free societies, that all people can express without violence their views.

Yes, I am not against protesting, but think of the victims of the Mumbai blast, the sores are still raw, if somebody retaliates what will happen, that is my worry.
