Qadianis use Lahore massacre as excuse against 2nd amendment

@khoji

After the sad tragedy in Lahore, Qadianis are calling for repealling the law declaring them out of the bounds of Islam.

“The** US government** must take every measure in its power to have all levels of government in Pakistan eliminate the laws and ordinances that have become the tools to facilitate and institutionalize the persecution of Ahmadi Muslims” and have been used against other minorities, he said.

Yes, the laws that discriminate people on the basis of religion should be repealed. But is the intolerance resulting in such massacre, and declaration of Qadiani being non-Muslims somehow related?

I question this logic.

According to Pakistani law, there is no kind of discrimination against shia people. And yet thousands of shias have been killed in Pakistan all around the country. Actually there was a time in Karachi when people used to wake up everyday to do a newspaper-“count” of number of shias dead in the city.

Killing of minorities is directly related to intolerance in the form of extremist militants. Whether laws are made or repealed, such killings will continue to happen, unless intolerant militancy is wiped out of the country.

Khoji Bhai Sahib, I agree that simply making Laws will not help if no one follows them…

But using America as an example will not work either…their solution for minorities is putting them in “Reservations”…you know all the Indian Reservations…that is an Original American solution!

seems to be working for over hundred years now!

Do you think it will work in Pakistan too?

@khoji

You mean quota system?
There are some good points about this system and some bad points. Depends on where you are coming from.

I am not sure if America actually follows this system in general. They have it implemented in very few areas.

Khoji Bhai sahib you missed my point altogether…

US is in no position to tell pakistan how we should treat Minorities.

Look at how the American Indians are kept under control…

They are living in Reservations (Territories set aside) ever since after the Civil War.

How did you arrive at “Quota System” from my post?

Ofcourse it can be argued that in Pakistan, FATA uptil now was a kind of Reserved Territory exclusive to the Pathan Tribes.
