Villagers lynch man on suspicion of being Maoist
2010-07-28
RANCHI: One man was beaten to death and two people were injured on suspicion of being Maoists by villagers of Jharkhand's East Singhbhum district, police said on Wednesday.

"The residents of Gumadi were guarding their village late Tuesday when they saw three people coming. They suspected them to be Maoists and chased them. The three men were caught and beaten with iron rods and sticks. One of them died on the spot while two were critically injured," a police official said.

The two injured, who have been admitted to the Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Hospital in Jamshedpur, told police that they were not Maoists and were returning to their village near Gumadi village.

In East Singhbhum and West Singhbhum districts, people guard their villages as Maoists on regular basis enter and demand food and extort money.

#2  Darn. Looking at the headline I thought it might have been Barney Frank.

#1  Well, first you should have proof that they are Maoists, like the leadership of International ANSWER, and several administration appointees. And nothing they can say can refute their being Maoists, or Marxists for that matter, because they always lie.

During the HUAC investigations, investigators discovered that hardcore communists had a flaw. They were incapable of convincing laughter when a joke was told. Their worldview was so rigid and strict, that they could not laugh.

But then, once they are determined to be Maoist or Marxist, I can't really condemn someone who beats them to death. Or shoots them. Or hangs them. Or pours gasoline on them and ignites it. Or even impales them on a stake.
