Imagine a scenario: A few thousand people packed in to watch a spectacle, which would cheer them the stadia is abuzz with thundering noise of people waiting for it to happen. The organisers;some of the most influential and rich people who control the stately activities from inside and out.They are sitting on a high-up confined pedastials watching the mass going crazy from top. The participants are waiting in their cabins and sweating with nervousness; their overall existence is at stake. They have the overall responsibilities of going out and fighting for their masters, who provide them with their bread and butter.
The dreaded gates open; participants emerge one by one; the mass going absolutely berserk marvelling at the sight of their macho heroes. And the race for survival begins! The masses going crazy with every move, every run and challenge and tackle and even at every drop of blood spilling on ground. Some fall on ground and cry in agony with their sighs lost amidst the jubilation for winning partcipiants. And so the event comes to an end with a slury of down and lost participants uncertain about their next moves, and some winning ones who are only relishing untill the next event, because they never know next time it can be they on the ground.
The masses go home, eat, sleep, get to work next morning and the morning after and after untill the next event, which would again put a check on their worries and give them moments of happiness and mute the want to complain and oppose the injustices. The potion of sweet poison continues to stir their blood with tolerance and mutability;something all rulers in the world dream of!
Now, if you thought the above description was about a bloody battle of gladiators, then you are partly right. But why can't I apply each word of the lines to our very own game of gladiator:FOOTBALL? Yes, the masses are the crowd, the organisers are club owners and investors
, their confined cabins their executive-boxes, the dreaded gate is the tunnel from which player emerge, players fall on ground get injured blood spills and crwod cheer and enjoy every minute.
What do you guys thik have we come far from those days we called dark ages?

This is indeed a cause of concern for minority ethnics and has been for long time...
Lawfully, there is a solution for this problem and will always be. But the question is how long do we have to wait for our freedom in foreign country/ies? How long does majority ethnics will take to understand that foreigners are human beings like them...
Probably decades or centuries...Isn't it???
