"Indian people are like fucking animals."
While waiting to board a flight from Kathmandu to New Delhi, I moved to the side of a crowd in front of the jet bridge to catch up with my mother in line when I heard this man behind me say those words.
His name is Joaquin Bonilla Garcia. He's a Spanish passport holder.
When I called him out on his blatant racism, he remained silent. After the flight, upon realizing I had filed a complaint with the airline, he tried to tell me there was a "misunderstanding." But I heard him loud and clear.
I'm sharing this for two reasons.
1) I believe in freedom of speech, and I believe just as strongly that words have meaning. I think hateful statements should bear consequences. I couldn't track him down, but I would appreciate your help in identifying his community and holding him to account.
2) Racism is alive and well, even (especially?) in unlikely settings. I wasn't expecting to hear this kind of language on a flight within South Asia, surrounded by South Asian people, from a tourist who was visiting the region voluntarily. As an Indian American, I feel the pressure to be extra conscious of my behavior when I'm a visitor in another country. Clearly, others feel the opposite, even more empowered to behave badly when they are away from home.
Commander Farooq Shaheed from Poonch, Sudhnoti AJK speaking about the injustices committed against Hindus & Sikhs in 1947 in Poonch & Mirpur.
“If they were given protection like they were told and didn’t have all those things done to them - the same would not have happened in revenge/reaction to muslims in Jammu.
When it comes to basic human rights, Pakistanis don’t even have a concept of this - they have something else going on.”

@anhilatecaste Its clear to many of us what he is saying. If he needs so much more explanation , he is pathetic communicator. If some one else has to interpret him, they need to be authorised by him to explain..your definition talks of special status because evry other right is already provided
@iamthedrifter Pakistan is reality
Doesn't matter now who said what.
1. From Indian perspective, a good riddance.
2. Two nation theory proved wrong, muslims from Indian side, Bangladesh is the proof.
3. Fooled people by eradicating history n aligning wrongly with Arabs, common Pak is clue less.
"When HINDUS visit Amarnath in Pahalgam, heavy security is DEPLOYED. When we Kashmiri Muslims visit Ajmer Sharif, there is NO security needed. Why? Because Hindus DON’T kill."
A Kashmiri Muslim Gen Z girl EXPOSES the hypocrisy of regional parties who once incited STONE-PELTING, asking who was ever safe as a Hindu in Kashmir before the 1990s.

Take a few minutes to hear how we are being looted by government officials. Lowest bid? The high prices will stagger you. Lowest bids and lowest quality is only for public infrastructure
@arnav_d I dont know whats the basis of you saying this? There have always been leaders who represent various communities but under the aegis of the constitution..one of these surely is not wanting to do that

Not "& Sons" but "& Daughter" — This Kolkata father's Durga Puja pandal board is winning hearts online. In a world full of "& Sons," he chose to write his daughter's name.
@Amit24TD Yes the one you support only beheads everyone, and by the way how exactly did Joan of Arc die? By the way its not practiced in India or anongst Hindus anywhere, there was historical set of events..which can be debated in context but thats because debate is possible in Hinduism
@theabdlrah keep imagining suppression stay in confused inferiority/superiority complex Sharjeel needs to put his points in the framework of the constitution and not try to harness pathetic popularity with his victim upbringing..
@theabdlrah And he considered Gandhi, as Mahatma, not as fascist. He had greater influence on masses than Jinnah whom people like Sharjeel Imam want to emulate.. so please keep that logic off.. and since those 100 years of education key tenets of Madarsa's have worsened not got better
