Illegal Mexicans or legal Indians: Controversial poll resurfaces as LA burns, 'Be very careful what you wish for'
In a recent social media poll, Americans said they would prefer illegal Mexicans over legal Indians. As Los Angeles burns amid anti-ICE protests, a controversial poll resurfaced on social media in which Americans chose illegal Mexicans over legal Indians. As many of the LA rioters are Mexicans and they waved Mexico flags in their protest, some social media users dug up the poll, conducted not long ago and showed that the result of choosing illegal Mexicans over legal Indians is in front of everyone. "Be very careful what you wish for, last year Americans have chosen illegal Mexican over legal Indians. While illegal Indians are being deported without any noise, Mexicans and others have burnt LA," one wrote. In one such poll conducted as recent as April 22, 84 per cent chose illegal Mexicans and 16 per cent legal Indians. "Illegal Mexicans are welcomed, Legal Indians are denied in most powerful country. Result infront of you," one wrote on X sharing the video of cars on fire in LA. — Netajinonsense1 (@Netajinonsense1) "Whole west make racism against Indian but the thing is that Indians respect law of the land work hard make progress, don't run for easy money," another wrote. In a similar poll conducted in December 2024, 82 per cent picked illegal Mexicans. Some social media users explained that the context of those polls was different as the polls were conducted mostly on H-1b rows. Legal Indians take up Americans' jobs and they can't be deported and that's why illegal Mexicans were picked in those polls, some said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo The LA riots started from protests against ICE raids in Los Angeles. About 35 Mexicans were reportedly detained in these raids, following which Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said migrants are not criminals."Mexicans living in the United States are good men and women, honest people who went to the United States to seek a better life for themselves and to support their families. They are not criminals! They are good men and women," the Mexican president said. Donald Trump deployed National Guard troops in Los Angeles, which started a Dem-Republicans tussle with Dem Governor Gavin Newsom resisting the deployment of the troops. While Newsom threatened to sue Trump and asked border czar Tom Homan to arrest him, Trump said he would have arrested Newsom had he been Tom. Trump defended the decision of sending the National Guards to LA and said if it was not done, Los Angeles would have been completely obliterated.

2 Charred To Death As E-Rick Being Charged Catches Fire
New Delhi: Two men, including a 55-year-old, died after a fire broke out when an e-rickshaw was being recharged in east Delhi's Dilshad Garden late on Sunday night. The deceased were identified as Shashi and Ballu. Police received information about the fire in Tahirpur Kodi Colony around 11.39pm on Sunday. The cops described the building where the incident took place as a ground floor and three upper floors built on an approximately 25 sq yard plot. "The fire had broken out on the ground floor of the house. Head constable Rajkumar acted promptly and evacuated a woman named Meera Devi," a police officer said. After the fire service extinguished the flames, the bodies of Shashi, 25, an e-rickshaw driver, and Ballu, 55, a vagabond who occasionally drove e-rickshaws, were discovered. They were sent to the hospital to ascertain the cause of death. Two e-rickshaws were also found scorched. Police said that the charging point was illegal. "Inquiries revealed that e-rickshaws were being recharged on the ground floor of the house. The fire was caused by a short circuit," the officer revealed. Shashi lived in the house with his parents and three brothers. A case under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita's sections 106(1) (causing death by negligence) and 287 (negligent conduct with respect to fire or combustible matter) has been registered at Nand Nagri police station. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Start Now Undo Investigation is in progress and the crime team and the forensics team have scoured the spot for clues. Anurag, Shashi's brother, claimed the fire was triggered by a short circuit in the electrical board. He said the malfunction caused the inverter to catch fire, which quickly spread and burnt a motorcycle parked nearby. "My brother worked as a bus conductor, but more recently, he had started earning a living by driving an e-rickshaw," said Anurag. He added, "Ballu, who had no permanent residence, occasionally accompanied my brother on rides in the e-rickshaw. At night, Ballu usually slept on the ground floor with Shashi. At the time of the fire too, they were together." Anurag explained that after the flames started spreading, the tenants present in the building managed to escape safely. His elderly mother was also evacuated from the premises in time. "We used to charge both our e-rickshaws outside the house because there wasn't enough space inside," he said.

Crimes by ‘outsiders' trigger protests in Uttarakhand, locals demand stringent checks
Dehradun: A series of violent crimes involving individuals from outside Uttarakhand — including the recent murder of a 25-year-old local man by a poclain machine operator — have led to widespread anger among residents and prompted authorities to tighten background checks. The incidents occurred over the past week in different parts of the state, including Dehradun and Pauri Garhwal. The poclain operator, accused of murdering the youth in Pauri Garhwal, remained absconding. In another case, Dehradun police on Saturday arrested three men from Haryana and Delhi for allegedly attacking a car belonging to a Dehradun-based merchant navy officer after his vehicle overtook theirs on a busy road on May 30. Meanwhile, seven men from Punjab were arrested for allegedly assaulting locals with swords in Srinagar, Pauri Garhwal, after being asked not to create a disturbance. Residents of Dehradun and surrounding areas blamed inadequate background checks for the rising violence. "What is happening in the past few days in the city and other parts of the state is completely unacceptable. We never have any problems with tourists visiting our state, but the kind of activities they are indulging in against the locals can never be tolerated. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo There needs to be a crackdown on such behaviour and strict action is needed against them," said Umesh Dhyani, a resident of Dalanwala, Dehradun. Responding to the public outcry, inspector general of Garhwal range Rajeev Swaroop told TOI that all district police units in the division had been instructed to intensify verification drives and act firmly against the accused. "Acting to curb such incidents in the Garhwal division, police launched Operation Lagaam (control), an ongoing campaign, to check road rage and related violent incidents, which have also seen a rise recently. The state is known as Devbhoomi — abode of gods — and we will not allow anyone to disturb its peaceful environment," Swaroop said.
