Politics & Government - 9 April 2007

i got pulled over in january for speeding (40 in a 25) and at the same time got a ticket for driving on a suspended liscence ( i forgot to pay speeding ticket from over the summer)....so now i have a court date (today) and my co-worker told me i should have gotten a lawyer...i didnt think i would need one bc it didnt seem so serious but she seems to think i could go to jail!!!!! the other thing is this....when the officer pulled me over he searched my car and found marijuana. however i was never "officially" charged with anything, they didnt arrest me, i never got anything in the mail saying i would be charged so i thought maybe they just let it slide...but now my co-worker said she thinks that will be the reason i go to jail today! im freaking out!!!

It seems like they have accepted it as an undeniable fact even though it is nowhere near factual. To question it is like blasphemy to the believers.

Please read this rather interesting article in newsweek.

According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as well as International Human Rights Law, as promulgated by the UN, a state or government has no legal right to interfere in the religious practice of it's people. Moreover every religious group in a state must be given EQUALITY!!!

In India, which by the way is a Hindu majority country, Hindus are not permitted to build Hindu schools and are constantly being required to compromise "Hinduness" for the interests of "Indianess" and "secularism". In India, ALL NON-HINDU people are accorded special treatment and have special rights (one example is the PM's recent statement that all Muslims should be given first preference). This means that Hindus are treated THE WORST in their own country. The pro-left media is the biggest enemy of Hinduism and of any patriotic or nationalist pride.

SHOULD THE HINDUS OF INDIA MAKE A FORMAL COMPLAINT ABOUT THE CONGRESS PARTY AND IT'S HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS TO UN HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION ???
