For all those accusing KA either staying here or outsied please understand, we know very well tat rivers r national resourcses & v need 2 share it,all v want is to be done in a fairer way. Not by taking us for granted & imposing orders as per ur(tribunal) wish. What v r asking is only our right. KA is a very peace loving state never consious about their language so much. Where in South India can 1 find such a large %ge of vegiterians than KA, not in AP, not in TN, of course not in Krl,who beleive in non violence,let alone harming humans, they hesitate to harm even animals. V worship the poet who gave message of "VISWA MANAVA" which means " whole world is one family". Kannadigas r very simple people without any complications.They dont know lobbying, dominating even in thier own place. But it seems like the people comming from outside r taking it as thier weakness & simply trying to take advantage. Just like India having problems with her neighbours same is with KA. Not that KA is a troublesome state. Those people who r accusing KA are intolerant people themselves can tolerate Kannadigas defending.

Even Hitler is a vegitarian. But he killed 6 million Jews.
Gujarat is also more vegitarin than u guys. We know happened in Gujarat.
ur logic here is going against u very bad.
Eating meat or not eating meat will not make anybody bad.
Seeing, Hearing, Speaking and thinking bad will make bad.
Here I am simply commenting as ur logic is bad. But I accept kannadigas r relativly soft. I am an Indian-Tamil.

Boss I do not know much about KA, but Killing many people in 1991 and applying black paint on Belgaum Mayor and supporting all these activities do not fit the "soft" description. Am I missing some thing? Thanks.

did ALL of the kannadigas kill those 19 people ? did ALL of the kannadigas paint the mayor black ? why chose a few to represent the majority ? and both were almost surely by political activists and rowdies, so do you want to take the rowdy elements as a reference ? i'm sure there are rowdy elements and political activists everywhere. the real test for being "soft" or otherwise is for people to move into cities, acceptability, language and cultural adjustment, etc. and i bet karnataka is as goo as a place in india as elsewhere, contrary to how you are trying to portray.

Mr.Rayker, Ur views r totally unbiased & very mature. When the rest of them seem to have allied against KA, very few seem to support KA. Let the justice win. I'm not against any Tamils. There r lot of good Tamilians who have contributed a lot KA literature,art & culture. Its few bad people who r earning bad reputation for their own people.

Sir,what I m talking is not about average kannadiga. In 1991 Tamils had also attacked kannadigas. They also attacked KA police and left lot of them injured. I even know about a incedent one night in 1991 when few Tamil youths snatched a pistol from police constable, put him down on road & tried to fire.But luckily for him the bullet dint release(thanx to vintage arms that KA posseses). Later the constable was rescued by a group of people who happened to spot this.This is just an eg. It is result of their domination that 1991 riots happened.Also slum Tamil youths behaved like goons and normal Kannadigas like me were intimidated by them in areas where dominated.The situation still prevails to some extent. Is'nt it a shame that v r intimidated by outsieders in our own land. If v r tolerating all these things is not softness then whatelse. Stop using some isolated incedent in whole history of KA to accuse.

Dont compare to crores of Kannadigas to a maniac like Hitler. He is one exception.Speak in general terms. Being vegetarian is one step closer to being closer to non violence. They r not immune to seeing blood & flesh like nonveggies. Understood.Its difficult to understand if u r not one veggie.
