Now Sri Lankan's are taking the law in their hands as they don't have much respect for most of the police personals.

Does it matter they are buddist, hindu, muslim or christian? Look at what happened and not who it happened to. If someone did wrong then it does not matter what religion they belong to, nor does it matter what religion you and I belong to. WHAT IS WRONG IS WRONG. Your skewed logic is very un-buddist like. Please stop wasting your time commenting here and go learn a bit more of your own religion. You are a danger to not only the society at large but also to yourself.
