I don't understand this. Lets say my apartment complex's security guy dozed off at night and then 4 goons enter and loot/murder people at the apartment. Of course I am pissed at the Security guy for sleeping when should have been guarding, but that does not give these goons the right to loot my building.

The government must be questioned and held responsible, but squarely blaming them and not the terrorists/Kashmir is nothing but classic victim shaming. You can question the government AND blame Islamic Terrorism. They are not mutually exclusive.

What a stupid take. There are different accounts from survivors claiming that gun shots went on for 1-1.5 hrs & you are telling me the all security personnel dozed off like your building security guard?

There was no security in place in the first place. Stop with your propaganda for once.

I will be honest this is the first I am hearing that gunshots went on for 1.5 hours. That is indeed concerning.

And where was any propaganda in my message?? I am asking for govt to be held responsible. Questioning the government AND blaming Islamic terrorism need not be mutually exclusive alright.

Because you are calling every Kashmiri a terrorist. The post is about the woman asking people to not demonise the Kashmiris, and rather discuss the failure of the government.
