So what ? I know a few priests in Canada and the US who sexually abuse
little children. I know a few KKK members who kill people for just
being the wrong colour. I know a few men who beat their wives every
day. I know a few men who rape their own children. I know that the
first white settlers of North America are resposible for the death of
more than 10 million Indians. I know that Black people could not ride
in the same Bus Seat or go to the same washroom until the 1950's. 

So a few girls sleep with MPs. Are you so stupid that you think it
does not happen in US or Canada ? I feel sorry for you. You still
have the colonial mentality.

There is some truth in that. But could you blame the whole of SL for
that ? Again you are very naive if you think it dos not happen here.
Poor little boy. If you are white, there is a much better chance of
getting a job than if yo were black or some other colour. Don't you
know about the glass ceiling ?

>If Italian or whoever keep their identity, should I follow that.?

Nobody is saying you have to sir. But i have found that been proud of
our culture gives you a better sense of self respect. Besides you are
one of the many SL people who ridicule their culture, saying it's
"stupid" etc, but who have no self respect or any kind of intelligence
at all. Like I said, you still can't shake the colonial mentality, can
you ?

>mind telling me how SL is taking care of you?

Free Health Care, Free Education etc. We try sir, but we are poor. If
you are one of the people who think that we should not have made
Sinhala the official language, let me say this, The only mistake we
made was not to give the same standing to Tamil. By making Sinhala the
offcial language we gave a great chance for many poor people for an
education they would otherwise not be able to have. If we did the same
thing for the tamils it would have been great.

If you can't think of any, I guess it good you don't live in SL. Who
needs fools like you. we have more the enough already !
