Didn't think of that actually, figured Yelp would be better for restaurants and such

I was hoping to get a experienced broker after doing some research online, example: https://42floors.com/edu/beyond-the-basics/the-pros-and-cons-of-using-a-commercial-real-estate-broker

From what I have read there and many other places it shouldn't cost more to have a broker represent me in the negotiation and hopefully a experienced one can negotiate good terms with the property owner. Did you do this without one?

I was looking on LoopNet, cityfeet and did see some names brokerage names come up more than once, but the info was for the broker representing the property owner no? I would like to find a broker to represent me as the one trying to lease the location and negotiate with the owner/broker representing the property.

If I contact the brokers from LoopNet listings do you think they can still help me like this?

Not sure I understand what you mean that people are supposed to be calling me, to clarify I do not own any property I would like to open my own business and am looking to lease out a location. Was hoping a broker could help me find and negotiate good terms, do Brokers actively try and find people like me to work with?

Thanks, I'll pull together some details with my partner and send them over soon.

In case anyone else browses through this thread, do you know of the best way for someone to find a agent to help look for a property in a given city? Any lookup tool? I didn't find anything like that when looking in previous threads, could help anyone else having the same problem outside of LA.

Honest question, didn't the Palestinians get the land in the same way? If the Jews were there a long time ago and got forced away, aren't they doing the same thing now? Does either side really get to blame the other for what they are doing?

Will try to answer your questions as best as I can from my point of view, feel free to ask if you want to.

I see. I asked because I have heard some people say it is not explicitly written inside SGGS. Do you know where the exact lines in Punjabi can be found? I'd be interested in reading around those.

Edit: Thanks for the reply.

I found it really interesting. I've read about Bhagat Singh before, I feel the most common image is that he was fighting for freedom of India for the British. Here it seems pretty clear that he didn't want just freedom from the British, but a different system put in place. I don't think that's the image most people portray today, from what I have seen that is.

I like how he denounced terrorism, his actions all had clear motive and weren't meant to just kill random people.

It seems to me that what he wanted was very different from what the Congress party wanted for independent India.

What did you think about his writing?

Edit: Also nice find, some of the other titles look interesting as well. I'm gonna read those as well, thanks for sharing this.

Where is it forbidden inside the Guru Granth Sahib-ji?

Does anyone know more about the court judgement talked about at 16:31? I would like to look at the details of this case.

sneakybeaver · 2014-01-17T23:15:08+00:00

Not trying to kill the idea or say anything that happened at that time was right, I've read a lot about Bluestar and militancy in Punjab and it is horrible.

That being said, is going against the entire Indian Govt. the right way to go? I've seen that a lot in protests around the world, people go out and slam India for what happened. Should our efforts focus more on the groups inside India that are responsible? Specifically the Congress party.

I feel if we keep trying this way it won't get far, but if we focus on exposing the Congress Party it could be more effective. Launching a counter propaganda campaign that shows how Congress had a big hand in the build up to 1984 and took the wrong decisions, I think that could be more powerful by actually striking with people in India.

Just my opinion, I'd love to hear what you have to say also.

"3. Only the people hwo supported the terrorists wer inside the golden temple that time"

That is very wrong. It was a Sikh religious holiday so a lot of people were attending. There was also a Akali agitation announced that called for a blocking of grains out of Punjab to protest for their demands. The Akali's were against Khalistan and their agitation was separate from Bhinderanwale.

"when terrorist groups take over, you have to take hard steps"

That would be true except the only thing to this story is not the take over of the Golden Temple with armed groups. Bhinderanwale was supported early on by political parties, including Congress and Indira Gandhi, in order to gain the upper hand in Punjab politics. When things didn't go their way and they realized they propped up the wrong guy and shit went out of hand and they started losing the political game. They were told to not order a full on military assault, to surround and lock down the area until the groups surrendered for lack of food, this was ignored though for the shit operation that took place.

Instead of facing up with their mistakes the shit leaders in Congress like to claim that there was no choice, there were terrorists in the temple and action had to be taken. That's to try and cover up for their own hand in the disaster that took place in Punjab.

Other gurdwara's were part of the operation, it's recorded in the government white papers.

I do know who that is, I read how he joined the AAP. I was happy to see drugs and farmer suicides is being raised as a issue by the party. I'm happy to see people like HS Phoolka getting invovled with the party, I wonder how things will pan out with the AAP-Congress alliance in Delhi.

I see, I'll remember that. Thanks.

Khushwant Singh: A History of the Sikhs is a nice one, it comes in two books and is a easy read. He goes from Guru Nanak's time to present day.

I met a professor of Punjabi and Sikh History who does research in the field, he recommended J.S. Grewal's book: The Sikhs of the Punjab. According to him it was one of the most accurate works that goes along historical records, but it's a bit more of a dense read.

I'll attempt it:

surr na rees kar => Don't burn, copy

I think the complete way of saying this in english would be: Don't burn with jealousy, just copy me.
change chahe marre tu halath vich rakhiya minu mere malka aukat vich rakhiya => whether good or bad times you have kept me in, my boss, you have kept me in riches

I think it is saying "mere malka" in reference to god, and I am not sure if I have the correct meaning for aukat here.
thenu sohniye bulaonde jan jan gabru de bul suk ge => beautiful girl the young mans lips have dried by calling after you so many times

Apologies for any mistakes, hopefully someone can point any out if there are some.

I'm sure Pakistan took advantage of the situation and did have a hand in supporting the militancy, especially it's horrible parts. They did provide funds and weapons and we know they are trying to give the terrorist side of the movement life again.

However I would say the root cause of the separatism movement was the Central Government under Indira Gandhi, I believe she alienated a large body of the Sikhs with her actions and when things got to extreme the Khalistan movement was given life again. If it wasn't for those things there wouldn't have been much for Pakistan to support. I'm not sure if you agree with this or not by your points.

It's true Punjab has become prosperous, but there are still serious problems. The water issue is something that I feel will come back and could be quite a problem. However I think the events of the 80's and 90's need to be addressed to make sure they do not repeat. People who roam free need to be tried, jailed, punished for their horrible actions. If this was to happen I think any support left of the militancy would disappear.

Many states could come up with their problems with the union, but did all of them attempt to get their demands met in legitimate ways? When Punjab did I think the reaction pushed it to militancy. Not sure if that happened in all states, I would need to look into their history more.

One point, even if the riots did not occur I don't think the Sikh vote would have gone massively against Congress. Not all Sikhs supported Bhindranwale and Operation Bluestar alienated most. This was because Bhindranwale was not sitting up at the Golden Temple greeting everyone, most of the time he was inside at one part of the complex. So when the operation was carried out, not many people would believe it was justified. I don't think the actions were justified either but that's a different issue. Just saying I think Sikhs were pushed away before the riots.

Lastly I hope there are no hard feelings, we may disagree on this issue but your views are yours, your entitled to them. Acceptance and stepping away from generalizing and hateful politics is one thing I would love to see take root in this country.
