I have something to add to the ongoing Africans Attacked debate. While violence really is the tool of the weak, gratefulness is the virtue of every good human being. You come here, work here, eat off our Economy, and then beat up a hardworking man with a chair because he refused to carry 'six' of you in his cab? Can you imagine any Indian doing that to African nationals in their country? How would the local populace react then? We all know the answer to that, we'll be lucky if we get to see his body.
Yes, this country has bid farewell to the 'eye for an eye makes the whole world blind' way of life. We're actually racing towards the 'two eyes for an eye' brand of living. If and when needed. So tell me, if you come into my house and disrespect me, beat me, how should I react? You are crushing my body, spitting on my self-respect, and then you expect me to treat you as a friend? Too much to ask for brother!
But you don’t stop at this; you go ahead and fabricate a mellow-dramatic show of racism. You sing a song the world loves to listen to. You make us look racist and parade on our roads. If this was a movie, India would surely win an Academy Award for portraying ‘supporting actor’ while you executed your drama.
Ever heard of the West Indies cricket team? They walk in this country as if it’s their own. They feel the love and warmth we happily give. In no other country you will receive a welcome like India. But that does not give you the authority to think of us as ‘soft’ and ‘weak’ people. Don’t forget, we worship you as Gods not guests; but we also recognize the devil when we see him.
Someone has died and death is a vicious hungry beast. Let's not add fuel to the fire and test each other's patience. Indian students too get 'targeted' across the world. But we deal with it, as a few cannot be allowed to represent a rich and diverse 1.2 billion strong nation, that embraces you with arms wide open every single time.
Here’s hoping to a better understanding between us in coming days. Leaving it all behind is nothing new for us Indians. You take the map of Asia and check our bordering nations. We have always applied our brains towards a peaceful and mutually beneficial solution. We know diplomacy and we believe in forgiveness. Cheers to a better partnership homie!

If you haven't forgotten, not too long ago, in a war torn nation, India came to the rescue of African nationals. India evacuated over 4,000 people, out of which 250 were from foreign nations. I was never good at Maths but I count some 63 African nationals on the list of foreign nationals rescued from Yemen by India. Would a 'racist' nation do that?
