V Iyengar says:".....However, of late, there have been a lot of cases......"
How may cases? Are we carried away by a few cases that we see on TV? The 'collectve ourtage' is sustained by TV news which are driven by TRPs. Or a 'minorities angle' which will give mileage for a certain political party. If your case will bring no TRP or political advantage, not even a stray dog will sniff at you.
I am not telling anybody to loose a few teeth. I am confessing that the average man is a toothless tiger. All the law, police, court, press, TV, Human rights activists etc may let you down if you don't fit in their agenda. Even your wife will not be with even for moral support.
Drawing inspiration from movie? Sorry, I am deflated by the real life stories of movie stars getting of the hook. 'The long arm of law' has released them! If you are a filmstar the whole industry has a big stake in you and that takes care of you. Ordinary Mr X should feel fortunate if he is sniffed by stray dogs!
Ligting a candle is such a bookish notion. Remeber the case of Satyendra Dubey or Manjunath Shunmugam? Now only their family lights a Diwa on thier death( read Murder) annivarsary.
The point is that, an expensive and slow judicial system, Corrrupt or inadequately equipped police and the Dada- neta-lala-babu combo- all of them make a formidable grid of landmines that if you trip on any one of them you will be a loser, even if all the other elements are in working condition. Individuals who fight against the system will be martyers who will not be remembered beyond their funeral.
Any housewife understands that. We can talk romantic concepts because we are typing on a keyboard anaymously (BTW No one is that ananymous. Big brother can track you down in no time.)
That is why the teeth and bones paradigm exists. It is a sad statement but a true one.Private Reply to 7 Th Thinking Hat (new win) |
