WOW ! The attitude is interesting. I am sure for the people who lost family and friends in the attack will appreciate that its hardly a nudge in the death rate.
Err. I think he meant that it is not going to make a diff to the politicos (as though anything does). As indeed subsequent events have proved. The "event" was just a nice excuse for getting rid of a few inconvienient politicians. BTW RR Patil was trying to break the police-underworld money nexus. Most dance bars are benami held by cops. On a more cynical note, there are more people dying travelling on the local trains and farmers comiting suicide. But heck it does not stop our cocktails and diner.
Thanks JTD,
Saswata, Sorry for the bad choice of words, it was just meant to be an objective view of the issue
