Hey is this the part where we ask for proof?

Cuz all I've been hearing is that Canada's allegations are totally baseless until we provide proof. Isn't that how it works? Or is proof only required when India is being accused?

I think you got downvoted by people who thought you were asking for proof that India murdered that fellow.

I found it pretty clear you were mocking India's government for not providing any proof of Canada being a terrorist sanctuary.

Lol thanks, you got it. I'll wear the downvotes as a badge of shame, and a reminder to take the time to think before I shoot off a stupid comment.

Bah, who am I kidding. It's not the first time this happened and it won't be the last. I once got downvotes in a newiran subreddit because the OP compared the Iran govt to neanderthals - I felt that homo sapiens neanderthalensis is a bit misunderstood and didn't deserve to be insulted by the comparison.
