Kerala has been wrongly accused… Though these particularly strong comments can’t be justified, I can’t help thinking that maybe the attention has digressed from the actual point the passage is trying to convey.
The issue in the post is about the barbarism involved in controlling stray dog population.. Instead of getting agitated with comments on regionalism, shouldn’t we be voicing out the necessity for effective implementation of the ABC programme? Just because cruelty to animals happens in all parts of the world and all over India, it can’t be ignored or pushed aside.

What do u do when coupla stray dogs bark at you? Just ignore it and walk away. Unless its clear and present danger you don’t have to do anything much and trust me, this guy ain’t gonna make any significant dent on whatever he wishes to. But its true what they say, there’re more animal lovers than people lovers. No one really gives a damn how many die in Kashmir or Afghanistan or Iraq.

Actually the picture depicts some dogs napping together after sunbathing. Really.

May be he / she is looking for some media attention. she/he is such talking incertitude arguments.

I believe she / he may be representing dog kingdom? She/He doesnt want to know about anything that happened to human beings in Gujarath riots. Further more she/he dont have any job I guess

I think the ‘delhiwala’ and his language should very well be ignored..

i dont think the petition is anything serious to think about…just another bull****..

There are a number of approaches we could take.

#1 Just don’t care and don’t listen that way not to contribute to any attention this petition could get(this might not work in this special case)

#2 Create a counter petition detailing the vested interests, and false information on this petition

But please don’t build a north Vs south conspiracy theory. It is just a people vs people case, most of the time even though unconsciously we make use of religion and ethnicity to get our ideas propagated, let us not do it this time.

I think the best way to fight it, is to ignore it.

Am hearing about it for the first time from your blog and that shows the petition hasnt been any popular, which means people doesnt see any value in content.

Also arguement that Kerala tourism will suffer coz of animal butchering is stupid. If so, none would ever travel to countries like China where people eat dogs, ryt ?

Let’s not unnecessarily promote some pervert’s blogpost through our blogs. Ignore him.

@Sooraj
Screw You….

@Jayapradeep
I have never made this issue a north Vs south one. But I have mentioned the coconut issue, which is plain truth and is the result of the sunflower lobby, which is primarily from north india.

And about freedom of speech, that fellow can campaign against killing dogs, that is perfectly fine. But making that issue an alibi to attack the tourism industry is not acceptable. Why is he particularly interested in targeting the tourism industry which has got no relevance to the issue.

So far we have not played the suffering malayalee tag, we have been fighting the system on our own, meanwhile we have all sorts of regional issues in every other state. We have been patriotic…. not like the tamilians, not like the kannadikas, not like the maharashtrians or even the punjabis. Whats wrong if I say that out loud ? We have accepted every culture that came to kerala…… and may be thats one reason we have progressed so much even with out much help from the centre.

We are partially responsible for our state…. and I admit that. But that wont prevent me from pointing out the exploitation. Look how crowded our trains are ? What do you have to say about the coconut issue , Just a token issue to debate.

And about holi I still maintain my stand. Its a north indian festival, which we accepted just like every other foriegn tradition we accepted. we are a bunch of receptive people. Will the maharashtrians ever celebrate onam ? And that holi post was intended to show the double standards shown by some organisations when they protest against valentines day.

I think this is the apt time to protest against “gosai’s”.There are some north indian lobbies working against the interests of our poor malayalies.
Thanks Kenny. This is relevant today.By the by what about our next “Blog camp 2009″? I am eagarly waiting for the camp.
