Patriotism is much maligned by the unaligned masses seeking a nirvana in Total World Guvment according to their own biases.
India is probably one of the most racist countries I've ever visited.

You said that you went in the early eighties. Therefore using your logic, I would say that Australia is one of the most racist countries I have ever visited based on the way Aboriginies were 'assimilated' many years ago.
Should have used Wacko Jacko in the ad.
I was told that dead persons can be used by advertisers without having to pay royalties.
tut tut ubi,
Selectively quoting is poor, very poor.
Go back and read the post and quote the entire paragraph.

I thought it is good, very good. I should be a journalist!
On the subject of India, I will say that its not racism which is so prevalent there, it is all forms of 'isms'. Lets just say that I know a LOT about India.
However, I would also say that us Aussies get SO defensive when anybody questions us (I can lay claim to several nationalities). Yes India should look at themselves, but I do believe that there is an issue here with the treatment of Indian students. Its 50% racism, 50% studentism.
Hahahaaa.
I reckon the Chinese guy is the worst and the pommies who recently moved don't even really like the Australians so I reckon they will take a long time to assimilate. Because they are white it is harder to pick. The Jordanian neighbours are doing better than any of the others and are very neighbourly and more assimilated than any of the others.
Back to India, last week an Indian bloke murdered his young Indian wife in Sydney. Not a racist attack I know but nonetheless and Indian death in a foreign land that will not be reported in India because it did not involve a non Indian person as the perpetrator. Just a thought.
Australian citizens of Indian decent have come out this afternoon saying they are disgusted in the report........
To mee its not a racist issue, its a violence and criminal infested society that needs fixing.......
has noithing to do with race, and I am so glad these Ausie based Indian spokes people made this clear....
Hmmmmmmmmmm
Well being an Australian of Burmese and Pommy descent with a cupla Indian uncles (in laws), and a Burmese uncle that married a Thai girl and a spanish brother in law and a best mate thats Aborginal thats shacked up with an Italian girl.... Who the hell can i pick on ??.
Might get some Chinese and wash it down with a German beer whilst smoking some afganni hash.
Geez small minded people shiit me .
Ooops i nearly forgot . My Grandafather was French silly ole bugger that he was for going to Burma in the first place and causing all this kerfuffle .
The media always fuels the masses, no matter what country you are in.
An Australian working in India picked a bad time to start a one-man crusade to improve the sanitation standards on the streets. He took a pot-shot with an air rifle from his balcony, where he was drinking with his mates, at an Indian having a leak in the street.
He has been charged with attempted murder. Being an Aussie his excuse will be, no doubt, that he was drunk. This defence, however, only works in Australia, where drunkenness is part of our culture.
This country has racists. No question, but I defy anyone to name one that doesn't.
So, I don't think labelling another country as racist in reaction to news items or whatever, is a particularly cool thing. But - in this country we still have relatively "free speech".
... I do believe that there is an issue here with the treatment of Indian students. Its 50% racism, 50% studentism.
