Day in and day out every time we open any news column or website unfathomable barbarism is all that greets us. Within a week we saw two of the most disturbing incidents which makes us believe that the evolution of humanity has stopped since long and is in fact reversing fast. First the brutal Newtown Shootings in Connecticut and the second being the recent disgusting rape incident in a public bus in the capital city of India which has finally forced me come out of my sabbatical and write this piece.
Lately we are observing that as the world is becoming more and more closer because of rapid globalization instead of bringing us all closer it is just breeding more and more intolerance. As much as we may blame the government or system or unemployment or poverty or any of the numerous conspiracy theories; it stands to reason that it is our own frailties and disrespect for law that is allowing these worthless vermin to do these unimaginable evils. It is our own selfishness and narrow mindedness that is getting reflected by the actions of these few invertebrates.
We can say that there's nothing one person can do ?? but if each person thinks the same then there is going to be chaos. We must stand up to oppose all injustice. period. We must stand firm against everything corrupt and narrow minded. Also just because something is an age old practice doesn't mean it has to be correct, we must think for ourselves before believing. Too often our aloofness encourages the mentally sick. THIS MUST STOP !!!
