I'm a Sikh and i agree with Jet that Hindu's in general were not involved in riots. yes, it was complete handywork of Congress under corrupt leaders like, Bhagat, Bhajan Lal, Lalit Maken, (Rajiv was ill-advised). but remarks in this blog of justifing the '84 killings show one's short sighted. remember, even today if there is a attack on INDIA, it's Sikhs in general and Punjab in totality that will resist & fight. i challenge that all these who write rubbish pro-84 riot remarks or justify the 'dera' will never come forward to save India. and these very same people who justify the 'dera' will react angrily when somebody shows a Hindu goddess/god in bad light. then there actions are justified. In Orissa, a mob (it is not important to mention the religion) burnt a christian missionary and his two small sons to death. now does anybody want to justify this? it is a behaviour of convenience - if somebody else is attacked then it is fine, and if u r attacked then it's a problem
