Is it Growing Darker?

Are the forces of evil surfacing? Is the Situation of the World Growing Darker? Just Yesterday I had posted asking if the Chances of Horrors touching Our Own Lives are Possible. Striking the Iron while it is Hot, have Two Videos of Child Abuse, in this case, of the Corporal kind.

In one, on the left, a THREE year old Child is first THROWN, Violently, down, then bashed Repeatedly on the Head, by a WOMAN teacher. Later, the TV channel showed this woman beating the Child even more, and More Violently, AND Kicking the Child, Twice. I had wanted to post the First video. It seems Videos cannot be posted on this Blog as it is a Free and Basic one. I am Absolutely Thankful to WordPress as it is, of course. To have a Free Site is No Ordinary thing. To watch the Video, please go to the Photos/Albums in:

Giving You a Frame from the same:

Ch bashed

Actually, in the Right hand frame of the presentation, We have a Burly, so called Teacher (again), Violently Caning, this time, Visually Impaired Children. Is the World Growing Darker?

In the Rise of Crime, the judiciary is Very Much Responsible. Cases Dragged on for Decades, Senseless, Meaningless, Puny Sentences, at which the criminals laughingly Thank the judges, etc, Embolden Crime. Keep the Reform and Accountability of the judiciary Very much in Your mind.

Are Our Children Safe in School?

Incidentally, the man who had raped the 6 year old child has been arrested, Thanks to the Relentless Protests. Add Your Voice to the Rising Crescendo, and Keep at it. It brings Results.

Probable vs Possible

Right from my Youth, have heard that One has to be Prepared and Ready to Die in one’s Sleep. Happily, Most of the Time, I have been Successful in that! The thing is that over the years, Long years, I seem to have come the Conclusion that it is Not Very Probable that I would be dying thus. But Which one of Us can say, Daringly, that it is Not Possible?!

But this post is Not about Dying in one’s Sleep!

A 6 year old Child has been raped In Her School in Karnataka. The (Dis)honourable chief minister of that state asked, in effect, What was the Big deal in that?

[What gets my Goat is the Glee in the face of the Toadies behind the man. These kind of people Always surround these kinds of people.]

This post IS about Rapes. And the growing Possibility of this Nastiness, this Horror, Touching Our Own Lives.

One would have thought that with things becoming ‘Public’ so easily, things becoming News so easily, criminals would be more cautious. But since our politicos, judges and the police find ‘No big deal’ even in the Rape of 6 year olds, the thing remain just that: News.

They dare to Gang Rape our Girls and Women in Buses, they Gang Rape and Hang them on Trees, they Gang Rape and Mutilate them With Crow Bars before Killing them. This last one fills me with Anger.

The man who has finally been arrested for the Rape of the 6 year old was serving as the ‘Skating Instructor’* at the Child’s School! Now hear this, Now hear this! The deed did not happen in some Remote, 2 bit school, nor in some ‘ordinary,’ ‘useless’ government school where Nobody wants to send their children. Skating Instructors would be expected Only in places where You would be dishing out some 20 Thou a Month! So, Is Your Child Safe?

Now hear this, Now hear this! ‘Another man, who allegedly raped a seven-year-old child inside a city school two years ago, is no longer even behind bars.’*

So What should We say Now? Has it become Very Probable that such Nastiness would be touching our own lives very soon? No, I would Not say that. But, Unless We Join our Voices to those who are Protesting and Fighting against this evil, Should We Not say that it is Quite Possible that these crimes would keep Increasing? And Maybe Touch Our Very Lives?

Loving means Losing Something!

When I was in my Teens, one of my Really Rich Uncles presented me with Two Pairs of Shoes. His Old, Used ones. Not these ones, Please.

We would All like to Love. We Say that we Love. But if our Loving is going be from the Comfort of our Armchair, from our Leftovers, like giving somebody the ‘Second’ cup of tea from the Sachet, of what Grade is that love?!

That was what cain had done. God did not ask for it, but cain said: “Oh, You want an offering? Here, take this, You can have it.”

cain abel offering

www.worldwidechristiannetwork.org

About Abel’s gifts, the Bible says, clearly: ‘…the First Lamb born to one of his sheep, …and gave the Best Parts as an Offering.’ (Genesis 4:4). It is offering something, versus Offering The Best. What are We Offering? For Our Own Children? For their Future?

People post pictures of their Outings, their Holiday Trips, of the things they ate (and drank) at their parties, and, at most, Copy and Paste some ‘holy things.’ Facebook is Full of pictures saying: ‘Say Amen if You love Jesus,’ or, ‘Say Amen if You Pray for the Hungry.’ Too Cheap.

What have We done about, let us say, the Water Situation for Our Children? Our Children’s Future involves So many Aspects. Have We at least Spoken Out? Or have We left it in the hands of the Nincompoops? You know what I mean.

Loving is Not Easy. When Winning means giving that Extra bit, can Loving be Different? About Giving, Mother Teresa had said, ‘Unless it Hurts You, You have Not Given.’

We might be losing out a little on Our Spare Time, Our Comfort, Our Luxuries and even some Bigger things. But True Loving Means That. Making Sacrifices for Our Dear Ones. The More the Love, the Bigger the Sacrifice.

What to do when an 8 year old Kills?!

I had the following from a Young Friend: ‘When a 2 year old is raped and killed, why should her 8 year old sinner be given a reprieve? That is my argument against saving juvenile criminals. I do not agree that a survivor/victim has less rights than the criminal.’

I really wonder if an 8 year old can physically rape somebody, if it is medically possible.

*******

The discussion had been on the punishment to be meted out to Juvenile Rapists. The example that directly springs to mind is that of a young man, a 17 year old, the one ‘juvenile’ in the gang, who had Inserted heated Iron rods inside the body of his victim, besides participating in the gang rape. he had been described by the survivor victim as the Most brutal of her attackers. This is from the gang rape, now notorious under the name of the Nirbhaya case, in Delhi some time ago.

Much talk has taken place over the issue. I recommend that he be Physically castrated, and that a bullet be put in his foot, to remind him of the Sheer Life-long Pain he has caused his Victim.

To anybody and everybody who would protest against my no doubt Most severe recommendation, may I say, speak to me after inviting 5 or 6 to rape You? (Should I be dirty and say that it Should be Rape?). Should I be Magnanimous and say that ALL of them can be mere 17 year olds? Should I say, Do that, and then We will talk?

Would that not be Most Simple, and bring a Surprising End to the Discussion!? The thing is, those who think and feel: ‘It is No Skin off My back,’ should not enter into discussions or philosophize.

So, let Nobody say I have no sympathy or feelings for the Victims.

*******

On the other hand, in the case of 8 year olds… I am not sure just how this case had sprung up. It was cited by my Young Friend, I am sure, with all good will.

Unlike 17 year olds, an 8 year old would and should be considered a Child. Searching for ‘Over-grown’ 8 year olds, I did come across the following:

http://www.reviewjournal.com/news/crime-courts/handcuffing-8-year-old-prompts-change-school-policy

In this instance, Tyrus, the young Boy, ‘was accused of biting another student and getting into fights.’ ‘He’s (also) alleged to have stabbed a principal with a pencil, though no medical attention was needed.’ [Quotes from the article].

Those are the worst things that could be said with regard to this Child, ‘the special needs student diagnosed with cerebral palsy.’ [Quote from the article].

8 year old TyrusImage of Tyrus: www.reviewjournal.com

After going through the various other photographs presented in the article cited above, the moustache over his lips seems real. Clearly an Ailing Child. Being raised up, …by his Grand Mother. How much and what sort of a role is the absence of his parents playing in the Young Lad’s disorder?

Further on his behaviour: ‘He asked for his grandmother, but no one would let him call her, he said. …He cried.’ [Quotes from the article]. Not the sort of thing a ‘criminal’ would do.

All in all, this Child needs a Home. A Home which would provide him with Counselling services and Support. If ever a Home like that Exists.

*******

I do remember reading a story Years ago, of a Really Vicious child, of the comparable age of 8 years or so, whose doings, which included his suffocating somebody with a pillow, making somebody trip over a wire stretched across the stairs, and things like that. That had made even my skin crawl. ‘Even’ in the sense, I consider myself rather hardened. That had been in some sort of Mystery magazine.

If We are to concede that Children like these exist in real life, I would put their occurrence at no more than 1 in a Billion. If We find them, let us put them in some good Home. …When We Adults cannot be Trusted to Run a Really Useful Rehabilitation Centre, Why to make a hullabaloo about 8 year olds?

*******

All these talks of Juveniles and their Rights. Their Rights DO Need to be examined, particularly in their detention homes. I would say that those who ‘Run’ our Juvenile homes are Not doing those same young people One Bit of Good.

Laws are being made by people who have No Idea of Hunger, Thirst, Pain, Suffering or Problems, and executed by groups of Just the Same sorts. This does Need looking into.

‘You’re grown now’: Sex work in Samaná

What do You do when Society or the Family tells a 13 year old: “You’re not little anymore, you’re grown now.”
And then: ‘The 15-year-old was 13 when she told her parents she was pregnant. She was given three days to pack her things, leave the house and find her own way.’ In effect, Abandons her.
What I would do is, I would Spit on the Family and the Society.

I had come across this post when I was searching for graphics of overgrown 8 year olds for my next article.

Documenting the Dominican Republic

Samaná, a cruise ship port town on the northeastern coast of the Dominican Republic, draws ­thousands of tourists to the island each year. Colorful sarongs, postcards, and Dominican paintings fill souvenir shops along the main road. The locals can lead you to authentic restaurants, idyllic beaches, and, if you can spare a few pesos, girls of all ages.

“This place is a man’s paradise,” said one tourist. “These girls just love to have sex.”

Berenice, Yolei and Chabeli – best friends, mothers and sex workers –  will do whatever it takes to feed their children. So in the town of Samaná, where job opportunities are limited, the three women sell their bodies for money.  

Jan. 6 was Dia de los Reyes, a national holiday for Dominicans. To celebrate, the girls packed their bags with bikinis, snacks and orange soda, and headed to the beach with their children.

5-Year-Old Boy Mutilated

5-year-old’s Penis chopped off in UP in India. Mutilation if there ever is one.

“In a shocking incident, a five-year-old boy’s penis was chopped off for urinating in the field of a villager…” (From Article).

*******

1. courts are erring in Not taking Suo Moto cognisance of the situation. courts have a hand in the rise of crime.

2. After all, No politico’s/judge’s/policeman’s son’s penis gets chopped off.

3. politicos, judges and policemen form a category, who do not know the meaning of problems.

Shirt Turns into Veil!

Many of my posts seem to tend towards the serious. But I Enjoy the Funny side of Life as much as Anybody! …During our Eucharist (Christian Pooja), the Ladies cover their Heads. Darshini is the granddaughter of our Cook, seen here in the Green Sari. Darshini, seeing that she had No Veil, Pulled up her shirt over her head!

*******

At the End of the Worship, I took up my Faithful Old Nokia, and thus We have these pictures.

This is how she appeared during, and just at the end of the service!

To show how she looks in her ‘shirt,’ this shot as under, got taken.

Below she is now with the Shirt turned into ‘Veil!’
