Rapists? in my world ???

So Renuka Choudhary, who incidentally was my mom's classmate in degree, and who is the minister for women and child development is seeking the death penalty for rapists.

What a great fucking idea! it is all the rage these days, I hear that the Taliban too have a death penalty for rapists. When you are thinking of following the Taliban, there is no way you can go wrong. Right ? Now, if only we could get them to have the execution done by stoning instead of the boring old death by hanging, we could get ourselves a national pastime, change our country's name to Indiastaan or something similarly catchy, and make a woman's testimony worth half that of a man's.

And Lo. Behold! Everybody wins!


My personal view is that the rape accused must be given death[sic] sentence, because for the girl it is a life sentence. - Renuka Choudhary on Rapists, apparently missing the missteps in logic with her reasoning


Let's see what Advice Bear has to say about all this:

hindustan is a legitimate name, which is why I did not use it. and besides, in this example, such a name would be ironic.
