Good work desi bhais !!
Gandhi's principle of non violence, which he practised all his life might be a strength according to some, and a weakness according to others. To use Gandhi's image to portray someone as weak and helpless is a folly. Ignorant is the writer of that article and the readers who find it funny.

Wah! I'm a whiner who bitches because my race got disrespected in a satricial manner
Wah! I'm going to whine and bitch and moan about "my people's" oppression by the White Man, even though i was born in north America, get rich off North American jobs, date North American women, eat North American food, watch North American TV, drink North American beer, use North American gas, criticize the leaders of North America
If you want to get in touch with your "roots", go back to India/Africa/Europe whatever.... but don't because North America is the richest continent in the world.... why do you think your forbears came her ein the first place???

I am not sure .. but why don't you ask the same question to Shri Anand Lal Shimpi ji.. ? Maybe he will answer some for you.
Now here is a fact :
Well from 2004 onwards US and India are going to have a dual citizenship setup. Hence I will be having 2 passports, American and Indian. That solves your question .. when I want to get in touch with my roots, I will fly to India. And when the weather gets too hot, fly back to North America.
What a wondeful solution ..
Oh Christ... someone made fun of East indians... run and tell Anand!!!
Much like the article in question... my post was not meant to be taken in anything resembling a serious context... if you've got your head so far up your ass that all you see is the world through shyte-stained eyes, that's your problem... I for one am sick of having to walk around on eggshells for fear of upsetting someone who thinks they're a "minority". If 1/6th of the worlds population is Indian, exactly HOW are you a minority???
Your respectful language is evidence of your ignorance. The refrence to anand was not meant to be taken in anything resembling a serious context. Sorry your head is also far up your #$$
However I pity your mathematics knowledge as well.
In US, we are 2-3 million in number. So figure it yourself how is that a majority. When we talk of minority, it is always minoroty in USA or in terms of US . Maxim being a US based magazine, its US we are dealing with.
You think he'll let a region that has been known to harbour and support terrorism in the past go Scot free??? Get ready to be bent over..

blakeatwork, are you jealous of the success Indians find in the U.S? Otherwise, why would you expect us to feel ashamed that most of our countrymen back in India live in poverty? Do you feel embarrassed by the white trash in your country? BTW, 'Indian' is not a race - it is a nationality or heritage. There are several races that come from India. NA is not giving me this money for free. I work, I get paid - of course, I'm glad NA pays what I deserve which probably doesn't happen everywhere in the world. And finally, your classic statement - "if you don't like something in the U.S go back to the hell-hole you came from"Not everybody came here as a refugee.![]()
No, my language is respectful because I try to enunciate myself int eh proper fashion, and don't grasp at "buzz-word" straws that some "minorities" seem to use as a shield for their own mistrust of North American society (Note the lack of the word 'White' in that sentence.. if you'd like me to break down it's hidden meaning, please let me know)
So because 0.002% of your global population has "made more income then most white families" (again implying you're dislike of those with a paler shade of pigment in their skin), you think that that is indicative of your global influence?? As much as I detest US policies, I acknowledge that they indeed are the only superpower in the world right now.... India and Pakistan are so intent of nuclear proliferation, that they're going to be in for a shcok when Sauron... i mean Shrub, bends his Eye over that way. You think he'll let a region that has been known to harbour and support terrorism in the past go Scot free??? Get ready to be bent over..

You can just march your happy ass right back to India, my friend, because here in the USA you can print/make fun of anybody/ethnic/religious group you want to! Welcome to America.
You have the right to complain, via legal channels. But don't spout all this ethnic pride heritage BS...you just sound like a whiner.
All ethnic groups take a beating (verbal, via jokes) why should yours be any different?

Yet another "go-back-to-India-because-I-don't-like-to-hear-what-you-say". What about the very white, very American guy that wanted to take out "under God" from your natl. pledge? Where should he run off to?

Agreed that all ethnic gruops take a beating here in US. Ours is no different ..however we do have every right to express our opinion in teh legal way .. and bingo Maxim has noticed it and ready for apologies.
And what is this Ethnic Prode heritage BS you talking about ?
We are proud cause we achieved something .. not the likes of you living on social security and buying goceries off food stamps.
I see every reason to be proud of our achievemnt in US.

Or like his potato farming starving ancestors from Ireland or which ever trash pit it was..
See the jealously .. just cause I mentioned some figures with income and success, they start boiling ...
Seems his kids in trailor parks are not getting good education ..
As an Ameican of Indian origin I feel extreme pride in that we can be of help to US and our nation back home with our success here in NA.

ooo ooo ooo.... you used racial bashing!!!. Do we get to march on your house now?? Or maybe I'll get the Gardai or the IRA to knock on your door... Christ man... what jealousy??? You assume that because I spout off that I don't make money??? sorry guy, I run my own business, and make plenty of money doing it.
you seem to have miscontrued my point, yet again. I am all for everyone getting a piece of the pie, even it means only equal portions for EVERYONE. What I bitched about was how sensitive everyone is to "stereotypes". Everyone's a bigot at heart to some degree, whether they hate a person because of their colour, their creed, or the size of their right eye, it's bigotry.... You just seem to think that because they made fun of Ghandhi (spelling), that they should be persecuted, YOU brought up money... YOU brought up legal action... I retorted (OK I mocked you) for your "call to arms".

A small disagreement here, MinorityReport. Ethnic groups are treated far better in the U.S than elsewhere in the world - even back in India. But that doesn't mean we have to shed our ethnicity. We'd like to add our own flavour (and curry is not the only Indian flavour) to this nation. blakeatwork and MichaelD don't seem to like this. They want complete homogeniety.

With this apology, are you and your "lobby" still going to try to "take them down"?
