RE: [IAC#RG] Shanti Bhushan in Sanjay Dutt's Defence !

We are moving in the same direction-following American way of life- social,business and politics.
Already there have been instances in schools where teenagers have killed classmates on petty arguements in gurgaon.
Gun culture is on the rise-licenced or illegal.

Dear sarbajit 

What is the guarantee that possession of automatic weapons would have saved Jaffari from the violent mob.

Then how can one ensure that people with free access of arms will use it for self defence only and not for criminal activities.In US there have already been instances of mass murders in schools by mentally unstable people with free access to arms.

You say that IAC stands for free access of arms for all citizens. Does views of mr Sarbajit are IAC policies or other members also are entitled to have their views?

Dear Mr Kumar

You fail to mention the following:-

In 1969 rioting Hindu mobs burnt down his Ehsan Jafri's house. he possessed weapons since that time. These wapons saved his life on several occasions.

In 2002 after the Godhra incident, once again a mob attacked his house, this time a very large mob armed with knivces, swords, guns and gas cylinders to be used as improvised bombs blasted their way into his house.  4 hours of calling everywhere for help did not bring relief. The mob had full police support and computer printouts of voters lists. Recorded calls to the DGP of Police brought no assistance. In such cases of a State Sponsored elimination pogrom,  the minorities deserve to be armed with automatic weapons. If Jafri had these he would be alive today.

Possessing or using a firearm in riotous situations is dangerous and may cause death to the user of the weapon. Such situations call for calmness and tactfulness in dealing with the agitated mobs.

 

In 2002, Ehsan Jafri, a former MP from Gujarat faced a totally unknown riotous mob agitated over burning of 59 Hindu pilgrims in the Sleeper Coach a Godhra. Normally a peace loving man, Jaffri came out of the house and when the mob was shouting, instead of pacifying them, he took out his weapon and fired at the mob. The already agitated mob got into a frenzy an lynched him to death.

 

Unless absolutely necessary to protect oneself in situations of performing one's duties or extensive travels at untimely hours outside the populated areas, one should not carry the dangerous weapons and face situations where that might be used.
