This is not related to the Mumbai blasts.

It is to the recent demonstrations by a few Shiv Sainiks who wanted to express their vent against the desecration of the Statue of Hon. Meenatai Thackeray.

While viewing the succession of events after the desecration, I was wondering whether there is a kid in all of us. 5 year old kids go berserk when people do not listen to them. They start throwing their toys at people around and in the house. Hardly do they know what they are doing. The only thing they know is, this will get them what they want.

If anyone starts behaving like a 5 yr old kid, pelting stones at buses and destroying public property and causing nuisance to general public, is the behavior justified ?

Don't we punish the kid and teach him the values to be a more responsible kid ? Should the same pattern be applied here as well ? The government has to play the parental role. More importantly people should start realising the difference between them and a 5 yr old kid. Go and find some sane ways to protest. Else, get slapped!

Thank you,
Manish.
