This isn’t a good way to talk about Kannadigas – really they aren’t like colluding against “North Indians”.

The biker was also very angry and was probably abusive, but it also appears that the conflict escalated.
If people claim to be intelligent – then it’s obvious that there was nothing to be gained by getting into a physical fight, and the intelligent party should have just let the matter drop.
What really bothers all of us is the complete one-sided nature of the complaint where it appears that the complainant was stopped,abused and assaulted for NO REASON AT ALL. Only the public CCTV footage showed that it wasn’t what it was made out to be in the complaint.

They are a deeply parochial and chauvinist people and gang up against “outsiders”.
