Can someone spare the world of these outlandish fashion-loving monsters, please? The media is swarmed by them and they are swarmed by the media! Nobody has any use for them; if you think stitching a few strips of cloth that barely manage to cover the model's breasts is an expression of creativity, then you'd better start nominating porno for the academy awards! At least, porno makes no pseudo-intellectual pretences!
It's the same level of anti-establishmentarianism that creates journalists with an acerbic liking for public ouctry. Why should anyone question why a monument is being erected as a tribute for the hero of the land? Those who have no faith and those have no heroes should not waste the time and hurt the sentiments of those who do. He who has faith cries just as often as he laughs; he who has no faith can do neither. My sympathies for your wrecked home Mr Ketkar, but I can't imagine any other outcome of your meaningless writing.
The only difference between you and that mob is that you are a vandal disguised with a pen. The true essence of a "free democracy" is not in being able to opine on anyone, lashing our tongues and pens like irate wagon drivers lash their whips on horses, but in mastering the art of leaving each other alone. And although the second hand that goes the distance to strike the clap is the clapping hand, one has got to wonder why did the first guy extend his hand in the first place!
