5 months and 2 horrendous rape cases... can we even call these rapes? Candles, oil bottles and rods are not used for rape - they are used for TORTURE!!
But the question here still remains - why were both these cases in Delhi?! How is it that such things are not prevalent elsewhere? Or are there?
Fact is there may be.. Nonetheless, regardless of whether or not there are, the crime committed was heinous...
So coming back to the main question - why Delhi? What's it about men in Delhi that turns them into rapists so much more easily than men in the rest of India?!
Answer... no clue... but maybe its because our society has often considered women as objects rather than humans!
How do we stop it? Take a simple example - if you see 5 people you don't know touching a flame and burning their hands, would you touch it too? NO! Our mind works in a funny manner - when we see others hurt, we will try and avoid whatever brought them to the situation they're in! So when 5-6 rapists have been tortured to death, chances that a 7th one will even crop up, are less likely! That's how it's done in many countries around the globe.
Point is, if we want to do something, make a change, it's not in making a new law - it's in executing the law that's present! If nothing else, turn the rapist over to the angry protesters - let's see how many more dare do something like that afterwards!
