Sinhala thugs destroy Tamil shops in Badulla. ⇒

   29 May 2009, early morning

I wish other news agencies would step up and verify reports like these from TamilNet. This seems like it would be easy enough to do, and would certainly provide some sense of what's happening in Sri Lanka now that people don't live in fear of being blown up by the LTTE. There are so many small reports like this on TamilNet: Sinhala thugs harass Tamil women in Ratnapura, Armed men shoot Tamil youth in Colombo, Tamil shop burnt down in Wattala, Tamil civilian reported missing in Colombo, etc. This is all recent news. And i'm skipping over all the "Tamil Youths Arrested in XYZ" stories, of which there are plenty.

Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
