How about recovering the looted public money from your brother Mahinda, that is the second step.

Gota ,you and your entire rajapakasa regimen should resign immediately before the fire of innocent people is going to burnt down you. Until your ruling party members are begging for life from the poor innocent people ,our struggle will escalate in nonviolent ways.

People of this country cannot have any further discussions, interactions and even dealing with a despicable person like you or any member of your family.

Gota why was Myna not arrested together with johnny? Anybody who instigates violence has to be arrested. How come you are silent? One country many laws? People will soon turn more violent which will take country towards greater anarchy if you act like a blind and deaf man

Mahinda and that loud mouth goon Johnny, should face justice for instigating this violence. Six lives sacrificed and hundreds injured. 30 days of peaceful protests and they thought they played a trump card that backfired. It's the villagers taking their wrath on these corrupt politicians.
