Where were you during all these happenings? Is this what the youth of Baluchistan does runs away from the troubles & ten try to make a comeback for it via articles. Tell me how many of your (Sardar) family really live in Baluchistan or are they harboring in other countries & making a hue & cry to enslave the Baluch people already enslaved.

Dear Ahmar,
Welcome to Newsvine! You write beautifully and are a next-level journalist. Thank you for being so brave and being true to who you are. Your work is very important and I applaud your bravery for standing up for what you think is right.
I am a Native American, well, actually Alaska Native, journalist and have spoken on "Diversity" at our local Society of Professional Journalists events.
I am also going to be speaking at the Seattle Rainbow Bookfest about "Just because we're different doesn't mean we're wrong: The Impact of Diversity and Culture on Online Journalism."
At my last SPJ presentation, I presented a Diversity Resource that included information about Seattle's PRIDE parade. i have a gay into transgendered daughter and laughed as I shared how I'd open her bedroom door on a Saturday morning and find her in bed with two other girlfriends. I told the audience that I'd just ask them "What do you want for breakfast?"
Anyway, Ahmar, thank you for being one of our columnists here at Newsvine. You are a great journalist and I look forward to following your work.
*hugz*
