Learn to respect a dead soul mate.

Why so many "thumbs down" for a simple "Rest in Peace" message. Who are these morons? Perhaps they don't even understand simple English. Poor stupid idiots.

Thanks to Him and Milinda Moragoda UNP nomination was rejected. They altered the nomination paper with tippex.
