Sidhoni Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 And i thought Mumbai was safer than Delhi? That's all you care about?
Clarke Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 And i thought Mumbai was safer than Delhi? You should have asked some women about it.
Stuge Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Unfortunately, all this outrage distracts us from asking the most fundamental questions. Where are we as society ? Who are we as people ? Whom is this outrage against ? This happened in Mumbai. Something like this probably every 20 minutes somewhere in India. It is a sick country, but it is law and order issue. As a country as a nation we have failed .Country who can't protect its own citizens is nothing in reality .
mastana Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 That's all you care about? My point is women are not safe anywhere in India. But some people here say things like this city is safer than other one blah blah which is not true. And me caring or not caring about this won't change her life. She doesn't need anyone's sympathy she needs justice which none of us other than the law can provide.
veer Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Good work by police... all five are under arrest now..
rkt.india Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Unfortunately, all this outrage distracts us from asking the most fundamental questions. Where are we as society ? Who are we as people ? Whom is this outrage against ? This happened in Mumbai. Something like this probably every 20 minutes somewhere in India. It is a sick country, but it is law and order issue. Most people will see this incident as an act against a female and will link it to perception towards females in our country like female inferiority, male superiority, but we need to look at this beyond this but crime as a whole. We see a rape here and then a murder there which can be of anyone, male or female, but if it is a male we wont even think about it, but if it is a female, we will start talking about crime against females and gender biases will creep in while we will not even think about fundamental issues that are escalating crime. Why people are not able to think right? There are always two ways of crime, intentional which is planned before it happened and unintentional which happens in a zest, heat of the moment. The biggest thing to think about is growing criminal tendencies in humans and increasing behavioral intolerance. Why people are not able to differentiate between good and bad? ? Why they dont think that some thing they are doing can hurt others?
rkt.india Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 As a country as a nation we have failed .Country who can't protect its own citizens is nothing in reality . I do not think it is just a man and woman thing. There was a man with the girl who was beaten up too. Read my post above.

Crookbond Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Yup that is what is disturbing. Some people just care about their Mumbai vs Delhi debate. Scroll up and check who bought the Mumbai vs Delhi debate in this thread and ask which city/region they are from - you may get your answer.
Sidhoni Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Scroll up and check who bought the Mumbai vs Delhi debate in this thread and ask which city/region they are from - you may get your answer. Not talking about this thread, I saw people doing that on twitter.

Grim World of Mumbai Rape Accused maybe lack of empathy and taking what you want by force is how people live in Indian slums? It looks like the mumbai rapists lived in conditions similar to the ones in delhi.
EnterTheVoid Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Personally, I have just become numb from reading such news.
Crookbond Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Not talking about this thread' date=' I saw people doing that on twitter.[/quote'] Fair enough but I am skeptical the comparison was started due to conversations on the Twitterverse.
maniac Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Seriously this is F***ed up....wasn't there a myth few years back that Mumbai Police wasas good as Scotland yard...Whatta joke...Not just Mumbai,Every where in India,the Police system is a Piece of Crap.
Params7 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 sad... this keeps happening in India :facepalm: Need some draconian laws for preventing it from happening again Draconian laws will not prevent rapes from happening again. They'll just make sure they don't leave the victim alive to tell the story. You can't fight social frustration (corruption, rape, murder) rising from poverty, overpopulation, lack of education, flawed upbringing, imbalanced male to female ration (female foeticide) with draconian laws.
randomGuy Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Mohamed Kasim Hafiz Sheikh alias Bangali, the main accused in the gangrape of a photojournalist, has said that he and his gang raped four women in the last one year at the same spot where Thursday's rape took place. Draconian laws will not prevent rapes from happening again. They'll just make sure they don't leave the victim alive to tell the story. You can't fight social frustration (corruption, rape, murder) rising from poverty, overpopulation, lack of education, flawed upbringing, imbalanced male to female ration (female foeticide) with draconian laws. Nice post.
EnterTheVoid Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Their actions were physical manifestations of the sexually deprived culture they were brought up in. Moral depravity starts at a young age, one simply doesn't become a rapist overnight.
beetle Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 >>>>>>Mohamed Kasim Hafiz Sheikh alias Bangali, the main accused in the gangrape of a photojournalist, has said that he and his gang raped four women in the last one year at the same spot where Thursday's rape took place. That is the sad reality of the rape victims. God knows how many don't even dare to report such savagery because of what happens to rape victims after reporting. The way the police deals with the victim...the hospital staff, the lawyers, the family ,the neighbors......that is what makes us a sick rotting country. Just read the comments on any of the reports and see how many people question why the victim was out there is the first place. The victim was out with a colleague at 6-6.30 pm.They make it look like that was the reason for the rape. You think these guys don't have the mentality of a rapists?
Crookbond Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 In its desire to give saturation coverage to such crimes, TOI led the way. But there were four oversights that ought to have been caught by alert editors. http://thehoot.org/web/home/story.php?storyid=6990 TOI-let paper :isalute:
