The Thackeray fiasco

Since childhood we have been taught that we live in a democratic country where we have the freedom of speech. But does it mean that the freedom of speech and power(in case of politicians) should be miss used.
I had been reading the fiasco created by Raj Thackeray. He has continuously kept Shahrukh Khan under the Shiv Sena scanner for his stand on Pakistani players in the Indian Premier League (IPL). I believe that Srk appreciated the talent and quality that few players in pakistan have. He neither protested in the country's support nor sympathized with any Muslim community.

I would like to ask Mr. Thackeray as the citizen of India - has he become a political leader just to raise petty issues and do religious bifurcation only. At times Shiv Seniks beat punjabiz and bihariz for getting settled in Maharashtra, burn buses when they feel like, make loss of government property, etc. Can you people stop making mountain out of a molehill and do something good, something valuable that brings benefit to our country.
