RE: My daughter's quest for justice

in Dream Steemlast year

Fine. We now know that you are proud of your homeland.

I prefer justice, but I understand the impulse.

It's a fact. I consider the thirst for revenge to be an understandable human impulse, but vigilante justice to be just as reprehensible as the act itself. The death penalty, by the way, is just as reprehensible; I have already written about this elsewhere...

It is a shame that such things happen.

Rape, sexualised violence, assault... All over the world.

That they might still be considered acceptable in your country and among certain people...

That's something I know from different women's rights initiatives and my Indian friends. Even if a society as a whole has become very progressive, there are still reactionary attitudes in which a woman is worth nothing. As far as I know, there are groups in India that believe they are in the right with such positions and that the judiciary does not put an appropriate stop to them.

It's time for us humans to grow up!

A fact again. We are at the very beginning of our possibilities - the human being in itself is a perfect being. The only problem is socialisation... Our dealings with each other need to grow up.

If you want to see racism - I can't stop you.
