Samsara that was some of the truest stuff I read on this site...Everyone has a godddam opinion on every case and they are so quick to vilifiy someone with that "holier than thou" attitude. This sort of thing can happen to anyone. Although I did not know Acharya personally, I doubt that he intended to kill the motorist. He made a foolish decision in trying to evade the police and this was the outcome. Imagine the guilt and remorse and despair that this man went through in jail. Just when he is entering the zenith of his life, he does not get to enjoy any of the fruits of his labor or take care of his family....instead he is sent to jail and not allowed to even keep contact with others via phone..I understand what he did was wrong and Keith Brown can never be brought back..but this was not a deliberate act of murder..and why the fuuuck is it so hard to give even the slightest bit of sympathy for the man and his family...Honestly, that "dai-bhai syndrome" that so many Nepalese are afflicted with bugs the hell outta me. There was this one dumbaas who was 5 years older than me and expected me to call him dai..I did outta respect...but none of the actions he showed warranted that title..if I was in trouble or needed something, he would never make an effort to go out of his way to help me..which is fine, that is his own prerogative...but why the hell he expect me to call him "dai"? There is no brotherhood there, and I doubt that there is even a true friendship there..
