So I heard about the Delhi Gang rape and the poor victim kind of late, due to my assessments before end of term followed by continuous day-dreaming of hiking Table Mountain (which unfortunately I didn't do due to time constrains.). And today morning I woke up with sentences and my powerful opinion, but lost mot of them while I was eating my breakfast.
I think the big commotion for her rape incident and death is not outstanding if compared with the other rape victims from the past. Yes, I am grieving the incident and her death, but just shining the light on her is just making the previous victims feel more secluded and left out. The other ones might not have been mentally stable to report the incident after it occurred. On average, a girl gets raped in Delhi alone every 18 hours (and ironically, most of the rapers know their victims; hardly any are strangers). This girl's rape incident made millions, if not billions, people realize the brutality of rape and how it should have a death penalty. After her incident, I think the best thing for her is to pass away. It is better to be put out of your misery than be put into it. If you compare it with the rape victims of the past, who might still have a life, but will be living it without a life. Get what I mean? I pity those people whose cries go unheard, or unnoticed; who cannot look into any guy's eyes the same way as before. So I don't think that alleviating one girl's incident is good and fair enough. I really don't get the reason behind this, yes it's an eye-opener, but putting her name alone isn't at all fair to the other ones.
If you look at it in a way, rape is almost synonymous to murder - killing the joyful and everlasting soul forever. It should be taken as murder in all the countries.
And if you are opposing my views, I humbly request you not to break into my room and destroy my stuff, I have 3 other rooms in this house. Kidding, but seriously, don't break into this place. I heard that some girl's father's clinic was broken into after her adverse post on Facebook condemning Bal Thackeray (to be honest, I've never heard of him before he died).
Anyway on a happier note (if there is any) I went to Nicki Minaj yesterday. The Nicki Minaj thing wasn't that bad. I mean, after getting a free ticket. I didn't sell it though; people would have paid a bomb. The concert was congested, cold and loud. If you had claustrophobia, you would be found sitting in the corner wailing like a lost baby. People were drinking, smoking and all that. It was like a teenage madhouse. People dancing like no one was watching. It was amazing and freaky altogether. This was my first concert. Nicki was great. She sang well, dressed up pretty decently and all the cuss words were censored cuz it was open for all ages, but that doesn't mean we should omit them from out loud and ear-screeching out-of-tune shrieks. People were drunk as hell; so drunk that they could get lost in their own house.
My school starts at 6th; have a whole week to waste. I am dying to go to Life of Pi.
