Calm down, man:-))  I really think you need to loosen your kashtie, just a
little bit:-))  We all love to eat crabs.  But take a look at the subject line
of your post. The operative word is "mentality".  

> 

You have described the crab mentality, whether Goan or otherwise, better than
anyone else when you said, "...stay away from their big snapping claws.":-))

That's what we're talking about, "big snapping claws"

- Goa style:-))

 

Mario,

 

I think you have understood my precise point more than others, have you gone
close to crabs in their natural habitat ?  As soon as you wade in to water where
there are crabs they will not pull up their scissors and come snapping at you,
initially they will move away from you or try the camouflage, it's only when
they are threatened that they come snapping at you, so, isn't that self
preservation ? Which is in fact "universal mentality" so why only Goans should
be labeled "crab mentality" ?   What do you do when you are cornered ? I am sure
most humans or most species at that,  would surely defend themselves or at least
try to defend themselves  isn't that natural and why should only Goans fold
their scissors and tuck them in their pockets a wait for "doom's day".

 

The way things are going on in Goa, corruption, mega housing, mining and all the
other evils including drugs and murders shouldn't we all in fact  sharpen our
claws and start snapping before we loose all of Goa's natural beauty and
resources ? Now who needs to loosen his "kashtie" my friend ? In fact we all
should be tightening our "kashties"
