Indians often say things without any seriousness. Chattering classes. It's been a badge for centuries. To claim some Indian wants a foreign power to rule it is sheer stupidity.
"To claim some Indian wants a foreign power to rule it is sheer stupidity. " well that is a nice statement i do not believe i referenced anything but an anectdote. No need to state someone is stupid based on a conversation now is there. That being said were you involved in this conversation? No? well then telling someone who was what he or she claimed is in fact sheer stupidity. Also as it happens this conversation started with her stating that there is a lot of corruption now and how the British introduced Common law which although not perfect helped to bridge a bit of their caste system by helping out what are referred to as untouchables. She claimed that in many respects they were better off. You dont like it, fine just relaying a conversation i was involved in keep your "sheer stupidity" comments to yourself
