@stux 1. In an ideal world, cops would be intelligent, enlightened, law abiding and fair, and be an asset to a community (including this one). 2. In the real world, cops are disproportionately powerful, servants (mostly) to their political masters, intimidating and actually dangerous for anyone opposed to the Govt's illegal actions. 3. This is NOT theoretical. Activists, dissidents, student leaders etc. have been JAILED in India for fighting for the downtrodden, for speaking against the Govt.

Indians ran for linking Aadhaar. Ran for changing Currency. Ran for 1 Nation 1 Ration Card. Indians have been kept busy like how! Now we jobless Indians are running for that bloody #FasTag!! Screw the Economy, Onions, rapes and killings and all else. The whole wide world does not, any more, bother about anyone's religion, skin color, pronounciation or food as long as the person is superb in whatever s/he does. We Run

If watched attentively, this video exposes how only tiny parts of India(mostly in & around NCR) have blossomed while rest of the sub continent is in the dark. Light or Enlightenment about which all religious blokes have talked about, in reality, probably implied material prosperity as contained in electric bulbs
