Hey Prasanna, just watch your mouth, dude. Surely you imply that TN is not a peace-loving state. Look at the inflammed passions over water that makes riots erupt in mostly karnataka. There is hardly a whimper in TN or hardly any retributions. Just because some Kannadiga goons attack Tamilians in Karnataka DOES NOT MAKE karnataka a violent state. Mind your language and please stop baiting Tamils and Tamilians like this. Tamilians fomening hatred or jingoism in the name of Tamil or Dravidianism are in a tiny minority, but even these people do not claim to be supremacists. Let us stay United, Prasanna. I am as much a Kannadiga as you are, even tho my mother-tongue is Tamil. I strongly feel that Cauvery waters need not be released to TN. TN should learn to take water they get that flows naturally. I have spread this message to many Tamils regarding the same. I feel that TN people ought to be totally non-violent in the water issue and even find their own resources. I think self-esteem is more important.
