Vijay, my problem is not that these lunatics are a threat to ‘freedom and all that’ but rather the official statedom deems them important enough to take them seriously. That scares me more.

Going by the words of Phanse (the man who started all this) he has little clue as to what he is doing. So no threat to freedom and all that. Mumbai police though is really saddening.

Black King, I guess the act of violence needs no logic or rationality…just need an excuse :)

The cybercafe attacks are part of the gross ignorance displayed by our politicians in general, not just the Sena.
Also the thing is when they say there are derogatory comments against Shivaji, I bet its not something outright insulting. There have been instances where someone mentioned that Shivaji’s parents had a broken marriage and the Sena folks considered that derogatory.

Santosh, yeah but it is sad that they would think that destroying the nearest cybercafe is not akin to burning the newspaper’s office that publishes the offensive article.

They seem to have it in for Orkut. I suspect Blogspot and wordpress will be next :-)
