Indian government must take a lesson from this. Never arrest a Muslim terrorist, do justice on the spot.

印度政府必须从中吸取教训。不用逮捕恐 怖分子，当场击毙即可。

The guy who did it was black. How does it relate with Trump supporters? Looks like political correctness and dumbness has become the latest fad in journalism.

凶手是个黑人。这和特朗普的支持者有什么关系?

看来识时务和保持沉默已经成为了新闻业的最新时尚。

Reason is Open border between US and Mexco...if there will be open border of India with Pakistan then there must be such incident in India everyday...

原因是美国和墨西哥之间的边界是开放的…如果印巴边界是开放的，那印度每天都会发生类似事件。

the police should stun the culprit instead of killing him so that they can interrogate the matter

警方应该把罪犯击昏，而不是杀了他，这样他们就可以审问清楚这件事
