Please will Rediff get facts straight and update reports? The shooter was a South Korean student of English who went beserk after searching for his girlfriend who left him or so reports say.
On what grounds does the moderator and who is he/she to disable reporting abuse from some very irrelevant and ridiculous comments? This is absolutely unheard of. Abuse may be reported but must be evaluated by someone with criteria. Your moderator would be better off cancelling all those biased comments that don't even consider the facts of the article concerned and end up pitting Hindus against Muslims.
This has become a paranoic state of mind that shows how unable we are to evaluate facts that have NOTHING to do with the issue of Hindu vs Muslims.The editor/publisher should bring back the discussion into the relevant framework if any positive result is to be obtained.
