Its time...Can we?

Last night I was watching TV after a very long time. I would rather read a book than spend time in front of idiot box but somehow I decided to be like an idiot myself after I finished having a glass of milk. Surfing through the channels I had to find my way till movies or sports section would start. Midway there were news channels. I was surprised, saddened and shocked that every other channel was either talking about a brutal crime or rape. A thought struck me - “ Is it my India :( ? ”

Today, the whole virtual world is aloud with one more unimaginably brutal rape in capital city of India, that too of an innocent five year old. If you are visiting twitter or other social networking sites in India, you just cannot escape the news. Everybody is ferociously outraged, and rightly so. Even if it is done by someone else we all are so ashamed of the act that our heads hang low. I guess everybody must be thinking - “Where are we going? There is no governance, no safety, no values, no humanity, no freedom – not even for small, young, innocent children. Seems like the whole world around is filled with extreme fear, horror and uncertainty. What do we do? Do we have place for us to live without fear? ”

Rape is not an act of sexual frustration, it is a psychotic disease. And the problem is that disease is spreading fast. The man is no more a man; he is becoming Satan.

I do not really know the immediate cure. I really don’t; except giving extreme fear back to that Satan. Any rapist caught should be hanged publicly but not before his vital "tool of terror" is severed, and that too publicly. Satan should also know what it feels like. When one Satan would feel, it will spread to another as well. It works the same way; as disease...Of course the administration has to make sure that it has actual culprit before it’s done. That’s the only immediate cure I can think of. Let me know if you know another?

Though, the long term impact can be caused by more emphasis on education ( I do not mean academics, mind you), and awareness of human values. It needs to be imbibed since young age. Secondly, the usage of any kind of drugs / alcohol needs to be administered by oneself. Once a person gets drunk he is not the same person any more (don’t we all know it). Most of the gruesome crimes are committed only after getting drunk. Once one is high on alcohol, his awareness goes down, his sensitivity goes for a toss.

Its time we really need to give it back to the Satan. Give it back hard. Lets find out the ways!...And then we need to develop an awareness, a process, a system, an educational giving so that our next generation does not live in constant fear and anxiety like us, so that we have better world, so that we have happier tomorrows, and, so that sky is no more red with blood of a girl child. 

We all have to start on it immediately. Can we? Even in small ways?
