What garbage

Consider that after thousands were killed in the 9/11 disaster, emotions would naturally be at a high pitch, and yet only one fellow was killed by a lone individual at a gas station.

As a desi immigrant living in the West, I condemn the narcissistic mentality of films like these. It sounds like spoiled immigrants are demanding that every nation kowtow to them, so that even one lone attack is treated like the sky is falling. Look at how the horrific spectacle of thousands killed in 9/11 is eclipsed by the one gas station owner killed, in the minds of these self-pitying narcissists. It's disgusting.

Next thing you know, they'll be portraying it as a great "struggle for emancipation" like they're in Alex Haley's "Roots" or something. As if they're marching with MLK braving firehoses and police dogs. This type of self-pitying narcissism fills me with disgust.

I also note the politics of Indian minorities and Left-wingers trying to carry the entire Indian community with them in their "outrage" like some tail wagging the dog. Oh, give it a rest, will you? Take some Rolaids to calm your pathetic heartburn, and recognize the world doesn't revolve around you.
