Sons of Mothers.

Saturday is over. Obviously Sunday is ticking . It's around 1 o' clock. And I have a lot of assignments to complete before I go off to sleep. But I feel like writing. Writing or typing, it's the same thing nowadays. I don't know who but someone is playing Requiem For A Dream soundtrack, and as always usual, it's hitting me, hitting me more that a patch of nicotine. Music has that power, power to make you feel, power to drown you in the sea of feelings, power to show you different colors of life. Music is, actually, more than that. 
You are on which side...?
          Before writing this, I was reading an article in The Guardian, it was related to the gruesome act of Gang rape in Delhi. It's a long, detailed article but it speaks truth. It shows the very clear lines of difference in India. Well I am not here to contaminate this article by passing my irrelevant judgments. 
          Friday the 13th, it was Dave Mustaine's, Megadeth Frontman, birthday. But this Friday was made special by the famous judgement given by the sessions court, death sentence to all four convicts. I saw most of us were quite comfortable with his judgement, they were happy and in a way celebrating it as day of justice. I personally think this judgement is biased. We cornered this act of rape in the category of ' Rarest of rare' without realizing the price we are going to pay for it. Just because the girl died in this case, the case became a special one ( I feel ashamed while saying this ). This means that when a four- year old is raped, it's not a rare case. When a seventy year old is raped, it's not a rare case. There are many cases where women are raped again and again in their own house and then asked to live in the same house beneath the eyes of the same person ( or persons). Is it not rare or is it very common that we ignore it so comfortably..? Ignorance is Bliss. Fuck it. It's not bliss always. Just look around yourself and you will see many girls,women and small kids ( girls and boys both) are raped daily. Just because it's so common, we ignore it.
        Don't categorize these crimes.Next time when a man will rape a woman, he will think that he did a small crime ( BTW he won't think ), he didn't kill her physically but just raped her. Those four men are not exceptional . They did the same thing which all rapists do. Sadly, our Judiciary lost an opportunity to spread the message that RAPE IS VERY COMMON IN INDIA,WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT. It should have done something concrete not just some death sentence which will vaporize soon. It's like we have to live this quite rage which is inside our head. And nurture these demons present in our society. Sometimes these demons themselves don't know that they are demon, that is the most dangerous part. 
   I am sad that we are glorifying this hollow judgement.
