pt.1 The price of being an Indian in Australia

part 1 of 4: Despite protests, Indians have been the easy targets for the locals in Oz.

while i condemn these attacks, and all racially motivated attacks, do keep in mind that australian missionaries were burned alive in orissa, not to mention the 'foreigner issue' made out of sonia gandhi. racially motivated attacks anywhere, in india or australia should be condemened. and desis especially should keep this mind the next time you decide to bash blacks, Hispanics or other non white races/ethnicities, its not ok when it happens to you and its not ok when you do it others as well!

we grew here, you flew here. no matter what race you are there are gonna be problems so shut the fuck up and stop whinging !!

@kent0bmx first of all plenty of people of indian descent are born and/ or raised in australia. take australia's ambassador to india for example. 2nd in case you forgot you are not the natives of australia as you are the descendants of british prisoners. so uh ya you came from somewhere else too - england. the head of state of australia sits in buckhingam palace in london, queen elizabeth of england.

@xgotfiveonitx dude i could be a coon for all you know so that would mean i didnt come from england but all im saying is that no matter what race you are there is always gonna be someone want 2 start shit with you and that they need stop making it out that its only happening 2 them ok.

@kent0bmx instead of getting angry and upset, why dont australians address the issue and simply condemn it? obviously you are against any form of hate crimes.

last time i checked more australians get killed in India then indians in Australia so stop whinging , you burnt our flag in this video for god sake you're asking for trouble . I'm going to buy a indian flag just to take a shit on it then burn it.. now

@Mr1000hp you know what though, things like this ,acts like this, the prejudices, and racism is what leads to the rise of the hindu fundamentalism. its a sickness that afflicts indian hindus who live overseas the most. i know you are talking about the killings of australian missionaries, but guess who funds those fanatics? its hindu migrants who live outside of india itself. they seem to be more fundamentalist than the people who actually live inside india itself.

G'day mate. I am Indian. Lived on the Coast for about 6 years. I dont think all Australians are racist. There are racist in all countries. In fact I never had any problem except for some pub brawls. We always made up after a few pints. Most r fair dinkum.

When u r in Australia stay like Australian if u come across a bunch of racists ppl just ignore them.Follow the rules dont just visit the dangerous places follow the norms and guidelines.

You're beginning to get caught up in your own rhetoric. The problem with this victim blaming culture is that you assume the victim was a victimiser. When you resort to that level of thinking, you're not much above the perpetrators themselves. And you're also saying Indians are self-critical; what happened to 'they're all prejudice'? Pick what side of the fence you're on before forwarding moronic statements.

Honestly, I think you're full of BS. You've no business commenting on these matters imo.

[xgotfiveonitx]

@jc55 what 'identity crisis'? you are a typical nri who cannot handle criticism period. thats why i see people who live in india itself ready to be critical of india that would give an nri like you, who lives in denial a complete heart attack. when desis are prejudice against each other, prejudice against blacks, latinos, etc. why should any feel bad when things like these happen? its still wrong regardless, but a learn a lesson of what prejudice can produce.
