STUPID CUPID - LETS ATTACK !!!!

Valentine's Day is approaching and the Hindutva Brigade is out of its slumber. Nice name they have given to their campaign this time- MORAL POLICING ! Its always nice to be self-appointed custodians of the civilisational heritage,or should I say its a superb cloak to camouflage their hypocritical non-sense ! Its ridiculous to see that this time their target is the state known to be the 'Mecca of the Software Revolution'.Its outrageous,as a responsible citizen and a thinking individual to digest their preposterous rhetoric.I mean is there a dearth of substantive issues in this country to fight for ? I am sure,our country has attained that level of enlightenment,atleast now, in not showing any sympathy to such publicity stunt-men and showing them their real place - an ASYLUM,may be ! If they really want to protect our civilisational values,then they should go and teach those youth a lesson who disrespect women on the road,or those who ill-treat their parents,rather than kidnapping and maiming a Hindu girl for talking to a Muslim boy.Our rich civilisational values never taught us such lessons. Where are we heading ? I know India is a democracy,so everyone legally enjoys a right to speech,but that doesnot give a license to paranoid individuals to get a frontpage picture or to appear or re-appear for a prime time news story ! We call India to be mature democracy,but i think the people should also show some amount of maturity in dismissing such signposts of stupidity.
