Protest against erection of M. K. Gandhi statues around the world

This petition was published by Vivek Nirala on Sep 06, 2010

Perpetuating Gandhi as a role model by erecting a statue of him in a location as prominent as the Sacramento state capital ground, the University of Michigan-Flint grounds and any place around the world would be deeply offensive to those minorities who were harmed by his ardent prejudice. Please consider replacing this commemoration of Gandhi with the celebration of someone of better character who can provide a positive role model for society.

To educate, create awareness around the Globe and empower the underprivileged community and secure their rights, we, the undersigned, demand:

(1) Please refuse to honor Mr. M. K. Gandhi, a man who preached such passionate prejudice.
(2) Refuse naming streets after Mr. M. K. Gandhi and refuse erection of Gandhi statues.
(3) Educate people around the Globe about true nature of Mr. Gandhi, a racist pedophile.
(4) Demolish existing Gandhi statue in India and around the Globe.
(5) Remove Mr. Gandhi from all Indian currencies including coins, notes and other printings and engravings.
(6) Expose Gandhi, who is a myth. Refute that myth and publicize the reality. Gandhi was deeply prejudiced against all minorities, from black Africans to low-caste Hindus. He also demonstrated a shocking lack of morality, from sleeping naked with young girls to employing nonviolence and satyagraha merely as a tool of political expedience.
(7) Reading books or visit www.gandhism.net (Lack of efficient methods of communication and documentation allowed Gandhi to effortlessly create a convincing but false image of himself.)
(8) Internationally, Gandhi has become a propaganda tool for the Indian government to whitewash its questionable activities. Beware of Hindu associations/organizations abroad and Indian missions and Embassies.
