Poonte looking through your window, it seems anyone with a dhaka and palapali topi there in the rally is your suspect???? what kindda nonsense is that... what are you suggesting that we stop wearing our nepali topi? I don't think a well educated fellow like yourself should be so bias towards our heritage and culture.... everyone should follow the serpha's for supporting the peace, atleast they realize King is the only option for peace. And again, your targeting the nepalese who wear nepali topi is very bias.... I wonder what you call yourself when you introduce to a foreigner..... do you claim that you are indian or something else, because your thinking reflects that you don't like nepal and nepali or it's culture and it's people. Nepali topi is the universal sign of nepalipan, no cast, creed or religion is bias towards our TOPI, everyone and every walks of life in nepal wear one and has owned one or wore one, and you might be that one too.... So, just because you have the power to write and express your feelings, doesn't mean you can say anything you want, that is why there is sensorship in nepal NOW. I doubth it even in america you can't just scream anywhere??? or can you??? if you want to find out, I would ask you to stand in front of your apartment and scream and shout slogans for an hour, I will gurantee NY city's finest will be paying you a private visit. Instead of writing all crap about people you don't even know.. why didn't you just ask them what they thought about everything that is going on in nepal, instead of pointing them out in the picture in internet, if you were a participant or just and observer you should have the guts to talk to the people in the rally and than point them out, stating who said what... It shows how amature you are in your invistigation----> refering to the posting by BRUN42. This is the kind of reason we have no free democracy and press freedom in nepal, democracy doesn't mean you can say or speak anything, press freedom doesn't mean you can write anything without investigating or quoting a solid source (like nepali newspapers), who wrote anything they pleased sitting in their office without going out of kathmandu, And according to you and your report, you said and compared, there were more people who showed up for peace really than the rally against the King, This shows there are more people who would rather see the King successed than the maoist or the politicians, so the population has spoken in both rallies in DC and NY; there are more supporters than opposers. Peace In Nepal. Jai Nepal Gorkhali p.s.---> none of ya'll can deport anyone for going in a rally or being politically outspoken in this country.-------> people like you can only hide and speak from the shadow's.. it takes a real nepali to come and speak his/her mind enmasse to the public.
