Reply to comment by PhukneeBone in TIFU by slapping a muslim man for secretly recording my sister twice by Zerconite101

I couldn't agree more. One of the guests told me to shout at the caterer who called this person and ask him why did he call a muslim guy. My exact answer was - What decent human being would tell someone 'Don't hire a muslim person'

Religion comes in because everyone agrees that these people always stick together in defending each other when one of them fucks up. He can call 500 muslim men and not even 5 of our neighbors would come to help us.

This was the same reason no one called the police. Everyone thinks the police will always side with the muslim guy because of two reasons. Either they'll scared to act against a muslim or they'll defend him and accuse us

I can see how you might think that. That country is not known well for their police force, as bribery and corruption are rampant. I believe money plays more of a role here than religion as far as the police go. Hope you and your family remain safe. Imo you are NOT the *** hole. Is he medically ill? Maybe he has a history with that stuff.

Unfortunately you're right. Our Police Force IS like that. Even in Bangalore, the city I live in. There are countless stories of the police being the bad guys and maybe less than 10 of them being the good guys. But still part of me believes in our police. I may not trust them. But I still believe there are good policemen who are making a difference.

As far as the mental status of this guy goes, no normal human being would do such a thing and then act like it wasn't even a big deal. He didn't even mind me calling his son and his wife and telling them everything he did. And also the way his son was talking, he probably knew what his father was doing.

I guess what I meant is was he visibly mentally ill? Sometimes you can tell by either behavior or physical deformities.

Totally not trying to create a religion war, but that this the case with a lot of religions. I see it with Hasidic Jews all the time. I think that something about religion in general tries to make its members as underdogs, persecuted victims that need to band together to protect their very core of their identity. Not saying persecution doesn’t exist, because Muslims and Jews and all religions have been persecuted throughout history. But this doesn’t mean that they are always persecuted and any act against an individual is an act against them all, and some people fail to understand that

I have a muslim friend in our friends circle. Everytime anything remotely related to hindu-muslim or even just muslims alone comes up he says out loud 'I apologise already!' He says this like a joke, but everyone knows what he means and why he feels like he needs to say that
