Let us avoid stereotyping at this delicate time, though it might be the first thought that comes to one's mind. With a Patil, there was also a Naik. Wasn't he a Goan ? We do have our Mahanands, and among the recent killers, with Talwar, as if to balance him, there was also a Rodrigues. Not to mention, the victims of the murders have been not just Goans but also a family of non-Goans who moved from Sawantwadi. Marathas have been very patriotic, and full of pride historically, but the situation today is too complex for simplistic answers. samir
