you are talking about democracy in america. sir let me remind you just after the 9/11 attacks. americans killed sikhs and muslims because of confusion and also because of frustration. division betweenblack and white is till there in few places..
india has its own problem, dont interfare in our matter.... we are able to solve our problems by our own.

They do it only once for all like 9/11, Virginia tech etc. At least in USA, they say that "In God we Trust" unlike our Cunning Karuna Nidhi. If USA can hold the population of India for one year, we can take the comparison.

There is a different potitic there. They knoiw only one religion... religion of Money.
And they accept hefty donations from Billionaires and corporates.
Sec 295 of India Companies Act 1956 disallows donations exceeding 5 % of profit for political contributions. Tehre is no such restriction in USA.

In 1933 Adolf Hitler was elected democratically to the Reichstage by offering special privileges to Germans and removing Jewish rights with disastrous consequences and 52 million people killed in the resulting WWII, the greatest single loss of life in History.
Do not play around with Democracy, it can be even more dangerous than dictatorship if not implmented wisely.
