"Laws are for little people"

In news that you can’t use M. F Hussain is pained that no one spoke for him when he found himself in unpleasant situation. Yes, you read it right. Apparently the media blitzkrieg launched by self righteous secular liberal establishment was not enough for him. Now far be from me to condone threat of violence against the fossilized artist but that’s not why he left the country. If he was concerned for his safety, a perfectly understandable concern, he could have asked for security and it could have been easily provided to him. All in all I don’t really believe that there was any serious threat to his safety, again this doesn’t not justify threat of violence against him. What happened was both individuals and organizations filed cases against him for disrespect of religion, again one can argue that there shouldn’t be any law restricting freedom of speech on ground of offense to religion, and that is a legitimate argument (though I am of two minds about this), but that doesn’t apply here, as there was no conviction in this case. Now even if people find those filing cases disagreeable, approaching court for grievances is a fundamental legal right, and can not be curtailed. Further while it could have been construed as a case of legal intimidation if he were some aam admi, however he is not one, and he could have easily defended himself in the court. The only reason he didn’t choose to do so is because well, "laws are for little people".
