Fateh Bindra Sahib,

I disagree with you. First of all everyone including the journalist threw shoe has apologised and he admitted that he did something wrong. But sometimes extra ordinary circumstances demand symbolic actions and this was symbolic. Just looking at the action and not anything else beyond it is not correct. the same thing was emphasised by a sikh woman intellectual on an indian tv channel yesterday. Everyone accepts what he did was not right way. But why it lead to that. Look at the incident in light of following facts -

1. Chidambaram was repersenting Congress govt in that conference.He did not answer adequately to the question and tried to hush up the question. If you watched indian tv channels yesterday, Mark Tully, an english jounalist also mentioned same thing.

2. Journalist was a reporter and reporter should be impartial but hey are also human beings. He did not throw the shoe in an aggresive manner. Look at the video, he tossed it lightly to make a news and to protest.

3. The shoe wasnt directed at Chidambaram as an individual. It was for authorities whom he represented.

4. It might have been pre planned, and very rightly so, look at the impact, both jagdish tytler and sajjan kumar are out of race in elections now. basically the shoe was directed at both of them and it hit them as intended.

5. The journalist put his career and reputation at stake for a cause. I think its commendable . The way he has handled it, he made a huge impact and at the same time apologised rightly.

6. you say its shame on sikh journalists, but when people sitting in top seats in india didnt care about any sikh sentiments and about sentiments of victims of these two guys, such small indecency is justified for the right cause.

7. i am assuming you know the full background of 84 and these two guys so dont want to repeat it.

8. its very easy to be intellectual, sit at hoomes, have opinions, write on internet and do nothing , but i salute to this journalist who had the guts to do this impactfull thing.

9. it migt cause sikhs slight embarrasment but the bigger purpose it served outshines it.

10. politicians in India will always use such things, but i think with this incident a common sikh whose sentiments have been deeply hurt has made an impact. just withdrwaing these two buthers is not justice for sikhs. but its better than seeingthese two guys contest elections.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
