People are angry over this is because if a person like Shahrukh (who get 42 lakh hits on google within 0.2 seconds) can be harassed, then what will happen to a common Muslim?
I said the same thing... when a common Muslim is going through the pain why can't he. What extra rights does he have to get a free pass? He got to suck it up and live with it.

Angry Re: Shahrukh Detained at US Airport

Nandshyam,

You are getting the issue wrong over and over again. I think you are deliberately trying to pick fight with people.

The issue is not that Shahrukh didn't get any special treatment. Nobody, including SRK himself, is asking for special treatment for him. All we are saying is that it is wrong to single out Muslims and harass them. If there is some problem with somebody's record or papers, then security people have every right to stop him.

But we all know that that was not the case with Shahrukh... They only detained him because he is Muslim.

Got it??????

Nandu, Do you think it is right to view all muslims as terrorists? If yes, then what is the difference between this discrimination and the one mooted out against the Jews before WW1I

Angry Re: Shahrukh Detained at US Airport

This incident has really brought the hidden thoughts of people about Muslims in this country. People may show off that they think of Muslims as equals, but messages in this forum has shown that they are just lying.

Just tell me, what if it was Amitabh Bachchan who was detained on the airport instead of Shahrukh Khan, would you've still said that he deserved it? Amitabh toh even wants special treatment in temples.... Shahrukh never asked for any special treatment on any airport...

This is just really hurtful
