criminal pols and their hypocritical online hacks

i am loling @ the self righteous pontifications of a certain blogger about duminda silva, gun fights, and criminal politicians, etc..

i mean how did this person, his suckerboys, and family members, forget that they worked, works, and will work for, same sort of criminal pols. just two weeks ago same blogger ran an extremely dirty politician's facebook page.

did you guess who i am referring to? good! lol.

(btw support of this blogger is a sure sign of defeat for pols he supports. check history).

where i stand

as i have said before here, only way to cure the political system of corruption (and attendant criminality) here or anywhere in the world (most of world is no better than here, west just conceal it it better), is to reduce the power of politicians/state over other ppls' assets/freedoms; be it by cutting government spending/welfare, removing regulations and pols' control over regulations, etc., etc., 

i will support such a libertarian program. in the absence of one from any electable politician, my support or opposition, for pols or parties, will depend on other considerations; ref my voting guide for last presidential election.

i will continue to laugh at ppl who pontificate on criminality and corruption of some criminal politicians while working for others. lol.

sarath fonseka supporters incite and welcome violence

yesterday sarath fonseka's supporters held a violent protest against his arrest. they attacked police. they damaged private and public property. they tried to enter colombo court premises unlawfully.

so much for respect for rule of law !

imo there was nothing wrong with arresting a person like sarath foneska against whom there is mass of evidence to start a lawful prosecution. (btw i will write a separate post examining sri lankan blogosphere's various objections to his arrest in the next few days.) but if his supporters and defendants think that action should be protested they are free to do so, peacefully. they are also free to file a fundamental rights petition if they want to challenge the arrest (they say they will).

they (mainly pathetic out of touch political refugees in fonseka's unholy alliance of unp, jvp, tna, slmc, etc) however chose violence. they used false accounts of sarath fonseka's arrest with allegations of physical abuse, parading his teary wife in front of cameras (to allege more falsehoods about lack of access to him), etc. to drive his supporters to a violent frenzy.

so much for truth! so much for respect for rule of law and constitution!

if they think violence is going to help them they are wrong.

but his supporters were happy with it so far and vow more. in sl blogosphere too their supporters welcome it. indi padashow samarajiva, an online propagandist employed by unp, is saying it is something to be thankful about (several hours after the event. so well aware of violent nature of the protest. note that.).

do they believe such violence is justified?
if so that is no surprise. in fact that is typical of them.

remember same ppl thought tamil tiger ltte terrorist violence was justified. they subscribed to racist notion that ltte represented tamils and perverted logic that tamil grievances (some of which are real) inevitably leads to violence (they probably think poverty leads to theft too). some of them thought jvp terrorist violence was justified too.

well most ppl, and thus most sri lankans, don't think such violence is justified or welcome it.

will these lovers of violence complain as and when they face the lawful consequences of their violence (as they should) ? hypocrites will certainly complain, but don't expect us to empathize.

justice served - jayaprakash tissainayagam racist hate monger and terrorist supporter gets 20 years rigorous imprisonment

justice prevailed today as colombo high court sentenced jayaprakash sittampalam tissainayagam for 20 years rigorous imprisonment.

he was found guilty of inciting violence and racial hatred, and collecting money in support of terrorism.

we should thank the court for seeing through his facade of being a journalist. it was used to cover his murderous activities. label "journalist" should not serve as a blanket immunity for dastardly crimes.

he had legal counsel and had all the opportunity to challenge the charges and evidence. he and his lawyers failed. he is appealing as he has a right to do .

unsurprisingly his supporters (to a man same ppl who opposed defeat of ltte terrorist murderers using violence if needs be) are protesting this and usually mention only the racial hatred charges, conveniently forgetting the other charges. much good such lies will do them (beyond generating some sympathy from tamil tigers' useful idiots in west who are too lazy to find facts) when faced with truth. if they want to make a case they should make it in proper form with facts and evidence in court. they already failed.

i personally hope his appeal fails and he gets to serve most of his sentence, and no unwarranted sympathy or amnesty is shown by sri lankan authorities. justice for all those innocents (including children) killed by terrorists he supported cry out for that.
