It is about time for the govt to take some kind of action for blocking the roads and the inconvenience to the public due to these protests and strikes. Some place allocated not in heart of Colombo.

I can't believe why still there are lot of idiots who just follow the government seing all the bull shit they play.
When jvo demonstrates against these unethical, irrational ruling, still there are people who think about them selves.
Idiot sri lankans, act today before this government kill your rape you with taxes while pampering their children, kill your father/brother and protect the culprits, inprison the truth and protect the lier and sell the country to china and make us all bankrupt and fly to US with their green card.
act atleast now to save your future generations and show some resistance to these rulers so they will not act as we all are dumb asses.

A protest is meant to cause inconvenience to fat cats like you who only care about yourselves.
So now you want protests held outside the city ?
The only way to stop it is to help eliminate what they are protesting over !
Get off you butt and DO SOMETHING curios.

And ruining of the Judiciary by the corrupt Rajapassa clan does not make your life miserable? JVP is trying to do something about that problem. For you. Appreciate it.
