A Lawyer for a Terrorist ?

People were murdered in cold blood. Bombay was taken hostage for 3 days .... more than 250 ppl died ... 2 NSG commandos , 16 policemen and 4 top cops were sacrificed in the process.....
10 terrorists taken down in exchange and one caught red Handed in the act... over the last couple of days this boy from pakistan who struck terror here has been singing like a bird and has confessed to everything that went into planning and executing this terror attack... and after all this wat happens..?

There is a debate on whether this mass murderer be given a lawyer and then let law take its course..? Wat level of stupididty is this .. ? We are not talking about a guy who becasue of personal vengeance went on to kill another human or a murder that has happened as a part of a gang war... these people attacked something much bigger than an individual or group of people.. they attacked our country. they killed innocent civilians in cold blood. they attacked and almost succeeded in killing the very spirit of our country ...

and there are ppl - ppl of the calibre and stature of Ram Jethmalani who are on TV arguing that Law of the Land is above all and should take its course... Does he mean that these terrorists and the guy who murders another person for money are the same? It is very nice to show to the world that we are a law-abiding peaceful nation on one hand. But then does that help us in any way? The people who attacked our parliament, our very symbol of democracy, were taken to court charged wit capital punishment..and now he still lives on with the order having being stayed... is this wat we want ??
Well as an individual I have the right to question why my hard earned money is being spent on maintaining these scums..?arent there better ways to spend the tax am paying..? to start with y doesnt the government get rid of these ppl and use my money to pay the defence and Police departments better?

They say that Law is blind- and hence equal to all. but then there are somthings which are bigger than the Law and I hope ppl realise and recognize this and set and example that somethings are above the law and will be dealt wit accordingly - a man like Kasab doesnt deserve to be taken to court ....

Sad, but painfully true. And soon, people will stop talking about it so much, and it will become another one of those violent and tragic events that just disappears into the blue, except for the families of the victims.

Nice to know you go further than movie reviews :) I've started trying to blog, but don't think I'm any good at it!

hmm... very strongly put. and im not trying to be the devil's advocate but then i hope ul remember the sensible saying 'an eye for an eye makes everyone blind'! though ur emotions are reflected in all our hearts.. u may want to rethink that WE (and by that i mean the 'commoners' of the country) are human beings.. so easily washed away by emotions, places and people... also if u think of it.. people are not bad.. their actions are.. while some of us are strong enough to be able to put our foot down and say no.. others arent!.. so while its sad that the whole bombay fiasco has come down to this discussion.. noone's becoming braver by killing another human being neither will the blood bath solve the core issue.. and the only reason i think he shud get his lawyer, his trial and his 'hang till death' sentence is because we( Indians) are not them.. we are not barbarians..
