Vhotee (Why'd you pick a derogatory nickname like this?),I don't see why you've got problems with me cringing at the sights of such drivel. You said it yourself, "freedom of speech/expression", innit? 

Regardless of how differently we feel about this, I can't help but reiterate - this is a small issue. Sweating over nonsense like this simply isn't worth it. In fact, I'd go onto say farcical would be an understatement. We tend to take our pride way too seriously. We brag about having the highest mountain in the world. We 'took' pride in being the only hindu kingdom in the world and what not. How'd you feel if you came across an Indonesian bragging about belonging to a country where 99% of the entire population is follow Islam religion? Imagine coming across a San Franciscan in NYC taking pride about Golden Gate bridge. Big f******* deal, eh? 

Back to the topic itself, racial slurs thrown at Indians was pathetic and moronic. More often than not, it's a bunch of hypocritical pricks who carry crappy attitude like that. I mean, you grow up listening to Hindi songs, watching Hindi movies and serials , adoring Indian actors/actresses/cricket team/ cricketers but when situations like all these arise, this turns into a dick measuring contest.
