Indians for guns

eight comments:

I am very proud of you my Indian Brother to support Guns in the Indian Society. I live in the USA and am among the very few Indians in the USA that owns a firearm. I have been looked down by some of the fellow ignorant Indians where I live, they think that I support violence. I really do not understand the prejudice that lingers in the mind of a common Indian citizen. I freak out everyone when I tell/show the firearms that I own. Well enough said, when I think about moving back to India with my firearms, I just dread it. I need to know more about the Indian Firearm Laws. Again Mr. Singh I really proud of you.

Thank you Karthik! I regularly face such people all the time The ignorance of people who talk about Gandhian values of non-violence is simply amazing! Ghandi was very much against Gun control and the kind of passive cowardice that such people try and hide behind their so called virtue of “non-violence”!! Gandhian non-violence was anything but passive and certainly not cowardice.

Gandhi advocated non-violence but DID NOT preach cowardice, he said and I quote “I do believe that, where there is only a choice between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence… I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honour than that she should, in a cowardly manner, become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor.” Gandhi goes on further to state “But I believe that nonviolence is infinitely superior to violence, forgiveness is more manly than punishment. Forgiveness adorns a soldier…But abstinence is forgiveness only when there is the power to punish; it is meaningless when it pretends to proceed from a helpless creature….”.

I could go on and on… BTW, do check out http://www.indiansforguns.com – you will find several like minded Indians (and non-Indians) there. Some based in India and some from overseas.

Cheers!

Thank you for writing in Jatinder, it’s always a pleasure connecting with a fellow pro-gunner. :) Yep! It is an expensive sport and made even more expensive by the silly restrictions on imports of arms & ammo – put in place by our government!! :P

Cheers!

at the outset, i take this opportunity to commend your blog & applaud its objective… having perused through the mile-long list of requisite forms (with considerable tedium, i might add) deemed mandatory to buy & thereafter carry a gun (with the added head-aches associated with ensuring the continued possession of the same tossed up in liberal measures as a generous bonus by our ludicrous bureaucracy), i am scared to death at the idea that if i am somehow able to tide over the current dissuasive faculties within & finally do decide to apply for a firearm and lo & behold, in the rare event of managing to successfully wriggle through the cumbersome & frustrating processes involved and winning the coveted license… the first & only thing i end up doing with it is ‘buy a gun, put it to my temple & boom!!!’ ...err… ahem… a small voice within seeks to know if getting an exquisite replica will be equally arduous? ... preferably a beretta… one that can scare hitler (that’s my wife by the way, just in case u conjured up images of nazi era) into submission…
