It'll be you one day. - 2

I'm sick of people downplaying the Mangalore incident.
For one, check out the videos in the list beside it. Also do an image search and revel in the world you want to live in.

It was NOT an "isolated" incident. I hate that phrase. No incident of this magnitude could ever be "isolated". It gave room for a lot of useless people to pass a lot of controversial comments, exposing how many people like the ones mentioned in my previous post there are infiltrating top government posts.
Like this woman, in the National Commission for Women. I'm glad she was sacked.
Like the Mangalore court, which directed the police to file an FIR against Woman and Child Development Minister Renuka Chowdhury for being a woman and speaking up on the issue, instead of dealing with the offenders.
Like the Chief Minister himself, who again, threatened to tell step-mummy about Chowdhury making false allegations instead of worrying about how adversely this incident would affect his voters. *

No, it was not an isolated incident. It led to making the Hindu Taliban feel a lot safer, since the attackers got away in the blink of an eye. It led to them going wild and beating up other women. And those are the only cases that were reported. What about the women who didn't report and what about the ones whose reports weren't taken down by the police?
Yes, I believe more women were beaten up. Maybe even by the police, because according to the Police Commissioner, they were only incidents of eve teasing. Nothing more.

Though it didn't make a bang, it did led to the real women snapping out of the supposedly safe world they were made to believe they were living in. Everybody came to know how the police and the courts function exclusively for the elite few and the politicians, and how the 'groups' are mere branches of certain political parties. The can of worms opened. Sadly, only a few noticed.
And some of the few who did notice, morphed it into a mere "isolated" and "unfortunate" incident, to satisfy their political goals. And the sheep believed them and nodded along.
I'm not waiting for a chance this time to say "I told you so."

*Well, he knows how many women would still vote for his party. Apparently even educated women voted for him. I rest my case.
