Yesterday, Moulmein was shocked by the murder of an elephant. The British policeman Eric Blair shot it, while about 2000 people observed the situation: Obviously, the elephant stood calm and peaceful in a paddy field, when Blair decided to kill it.

It was suspected to have had 'must' some time before, wherefore it killed a man. But Blair was a lot to slow and unable to save this man's life. Instead he hesitated long time, probably in order to raise more interest and publicity. He mad up a big show out of killing this innocent, poor elephant by shooting three bullets into its head without hitting the brain. Of course, the elephant didn't die at once, for what Blair fired several times into its heart. It died really dreadfully. To top it all, the elephant belonged to a Burmese man. So Blair will never be punished for the crime he committed.

My personal conclusion out of this incident is, that we don't need the British in our country. They are unable to lead our administration as they cannot deal with everyday situations, like the one Eric Blair had to manage. I am convinced that we have to clamp down on British arbitrariness in order to create our own state. Our people live in poverty, under the British rule. We have nothing to loose!
