On: Why many Indian politicians have a criminal record

[alokyadav15]

What about 1948,1986,1992,2013... Riots , why always whining about Gujrat or you think that only in gujrat riots politicians were involved ?

[helloindia → alokyadav15]

With your logic, since politicians are always involved in Riots, it's ok that Modi was also involved in Gujarat Riots?

[alokyadav15 → helloindia]

of course not , I mentioned those riots because biased view of andrewvijay , where riots means gujrat and criminal means modi.

[andrewvijay → alokyadav15]

They are not the prime ministers now. The context that we are talking here is about the current govt. If the previous govts had lots of wrong doers then it doesnt mean the current govt doing the same is okay. Get your priorities straight.

We've banned this account for repeated incivility.

[rameshdsouza → andrewvijay]

Using the same argument - we shouldn't discredit those crimes and criminals just because they are not prime ministers or chief ministers now. Get your priorities right.

" Chinese " No offence but they copy everything

[damon_c → alokyadav15]

The blatant copying of the successful ideas of others to the maximum extent legally allowable under one's prevailing legal jurisdiction is an activity pursued profitably by people of many ethnic groups and nationalities.

There may be companies or individuals that does so but generalising is definitely not the way to go

[recalibrator → alokyadav15]

Exactly. The Chinese refuse to acknowledge intellectual property. It seems embedded in their culture.

[w1ntermute → recalibrator]

Just as it used to be embedded in American culture: http://www.victorianweb.org/authors/dickens/pva/pva75.html

I don't have anything against the beautiful Chinese people or their culture. I was just stating what I see as a well-known fact.
