Go Away Politicians...we dont need you!

Now this is just too much. Time and again our patience has been tested and time and again we did spring right back into action because we are Mumbaikars and we are in the rare possession of the so-called "spirit of Mumbai"! But this time, its gone a bit TOO FAR!

Mumbai is freaking the highest income tax payer in the country and WE are the most affected! F***! I want to know where the f*** is that money going. Cause it definitely did not go to the 1000s and 1000s of policemen who don't have decent bullet proof jackets, caps to protect them from the heat BUT YET, STOOD FOR NO LESS THAN 48 HRS TO BE VIGILANT AND PROTECT THE CITIZENS! We pay them peanuts for it while the politicians hold GRAND BIRTHDAY PARTIES AND WEDDING FOR THEIR NIECES AND NEPHEWS AND SONS AND DAUGHTERS AND GOD KNOWS WHO ELSE! And this is not just Mumbai...but to the entire country. Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Delhi, Bangalore, Surat...cmon!

And if that wasn't enough, political parties have been using it as a propaganda to garner votes! OMG! How insensitive! You have some Vice-President of BJP, Naqvi saying "what do women wearing lipsticks and powder carrying candles understand about politics.". Now this is what he thinks of women...BULLSHIT! You know what Mr.Naqvi...these women have sensitivity... feelings...emotions... maybe you can learn a lesson or two from them. And if you have such a problem with women wearing lipsticks and powder...why do your colleagues and you run after them and pay them atrocious amounts to entertain you every night and favor your raging hormones!

Exercise your right, do vote...vote for nobody...exercise option "49-o". We don't want the sick politicians who don't understand the sentiments of the public. Except maybe Kapil Sibals interview with CNN-IBN, every other politician looked so detached. Major Unnikrishnan's father did not allow the state CM to enter his home!!! GOOD! Awesome. The freaking politicians are using this occasion to point fingers at one another and to do their own PR.

We need to know that we are being managed. We need to know that we are safe. We need to know that we can leave the house in the morning and know we and our loved ones will come back home safely and happily. I don't want to sit in a cab and be scared of what/who all are around me. I don't want my friends so say "I am scared...I don't want to die"!

The people of Mumbai and the media are now determined to fight this war on terrorism. Please done let it die. We need a solution to this...and the solution is US! You and me! Be a vigil citizen. We need a Lee Kuan Yew in India. Politicians are misusing the democracy in our country. Its time we stand up and let our voices be heard.

Salute to the Army and the police force! We are proud of you...thank you.
