They have money and brain. What they lack is physical ability to fight back.

Courage has very less to do with physical ability. Even a hare, when threatened, will fight back. What the Brahmanas (and Hindus in general) lack is the emotional ability and courage. They have the brains, but not power. They hardly have the money to sustain a fight. The NRI Brahmins may have money, but most Tamil Brahmanas are close to penury.
We have witnessed many hundred such events. Every time there is an an attack on India, Hinduism, or Brahmins, there are two kinds of reactions from the general public.
1) Extreme Sarcasm: Tending towards self-flagellation and bemoaning how spineless the PM is, and how this will happen again... or,
2) Empty Venting: Purposeless venting of anger which soon dies down in a few days. A lack of strategy from the venting-junta or a strategy with no real action item or follow up.
Yes we know the DK has a free reign under Karunanidhi. There will be such attacks in the coming years, with additional blessings from Madam Maino. Where can a difference be made, and what would be the most EFFECTIVE countering of such forces?
