Mumbai came under attack. Terrorists. They came with a purpose and achieved more than what they wanted...
I am a citizen of India and now, I will think twice before going to a Mall, Cineplex or a Hotel. I will never set foot in a 5-star hotel after this perhaps. I will always look at 20-something boys carrying shoulder-bags with a little suspicion or for that matter anyone carrying a rucksack. I will, at all times look for owners of bags and suitcases in trains, buses or even public places. I will make a mental note of all the fire-exits and nearest staircases at all places, wherever I am. I will not believe in the efficiency of metal-detectors, for a man just illustrated that even after carrying a gun, the detector did nothing. I will not have any faith in our so called ‘leaders’. I will look at most politicians with disgust. I will feel unsafe in my own country.
I will worry for my daughter, for the world she will grow up to live in. Will I ever have the peace and calm that I am entitled to?

Its so scary these days... it still sends a shiver down my spine as I pass the Triden everyday. :(
I don't understand them, these terrorists. How twisted can a mind be to think of killing civilians or any human.
I know your daughter is going to be safe in your hands.
I really dont know if we are still pissed with the way things happened or have accepted life and moved on...namesake arguments between pak and indian govt just shows thats its all bullshit talks and nothing else...i sometimes wish i was born pre independence and knew what mutiny means, courage to stand up for ourselves and others...will they ever do something abt this....minor group of people creating such terror and majority fearing to walk on the streets.
