you can always give stats and shut my mouth up... 'oh they did not treat me well this time' ... is not good enough
if ordinary kashmiris get roughed up elsewhere but indian visitors return unmolested, I say we should all learn a bit from 'wahabism'...
They are better a distinguishing between combatants and civilians than our own forces, it seems.
What stats did you quote?

A truly intelligent insight.
Combatants and civilians are clearly visibly different, from their point of view. What does the policeman see? An amorphous crowd in the middle distance, or close by, all doing, apparently, the same thing. What do they do? They wave lathis menacingly and the crowd retreats, watches for a bit, and then comes forward again. In case it becomes menacing and dangerous, the police open fire with shotguns. Educate yourself with the spread of pellets from a shotgun. If they point the gun down, there is a loud bang and nothing more; keep doing it, and far from dispelling the menace, they aggravate the crowd. If they point the gun up, the same thing, but some unwary spectator peering out of a window gets peppered, and the howls of inhuman conduct go up. If it is pointed straight, a great many get hit, and if there are smaller people in the crowd, they get hit higher up, in the face for instance.
Does the stone pelter have a similar problem? He is faced by full-grown adults. A Kashmiri policeman in mufti can be spotted immediately; he is a stranger, he is much older. An obvious tourist is also easily detected.
It is asymmetric.
The trouble with this series of posts that you have made is that every single one of them stinks of the lamp. You have neither seen these confrontations nor mingled with the people nor had an opportunity to observe the development across time, but, as in the case of our favourite body part, you have an opinion.
Oh boy, do you have an opinion.
Exactly how does that add to the topic?
You want to have a sense of duty??
Alright, think you are a Kashmiri Pandits whose daughter was raped and killed, whose other kids were shot dead before you, ran away from valley with the feeling of cowardice because you could not defend your children.
Now please justify to yourself that all that is ok as long as Kashmir get's freedom and you and your kind are not welcomed back. Justify to yourself that you were not targeted because of your religion...
I have seen stupidity buy you my friend take the cake...
It's not stupidity, it's cynicism.
