Srinivas Kuchibhotla an Indian man who was married to a loving wife, was killed this week. Kuchibhotla was shot and killed, while his friend was also injured, but is recovering. The alleged shooter, Adam Purinton, was reported to have yelled "Get out of my country" before pulling the gun and shooting the two Indian men. Another man was injured, as he "attempted to intervene" in the heated situation. This event unraveled in a town in Kansas. According to witnesses, before the shooting, Purinton began to "hurl racial slurs" at the Indian men after he had had a few drinks. The families of the injured and murdered men place blame on the Trump administration for its campaign which is run on hatred of immigrants. The US Embassy even released a statement calling this a "tragic and senseless act". Either way, the tragedy that unfolded in these families live's won't be forgotten, and neither will their undeserved suffering.

ReplyDeleteInteresting post. I wasn't aware of this event until after reading this. That's very unfortunate to hear. It's so sad how much violence is constantly taking place.
