Now thats a different topic altogether. But still, theres a difference between satisfying lust/satisfying the sadist within a person, and satisfying a basic need known as hunger.



talk about having double standards. a vulgar song is not alright. but the actual task of killing animals is alright. no one here is condemning the act of rape. the topic here is some people are not comfortable with vulgar lyrics in a song that no one is forcing them to listen to. so it should be banned. there are lots of things which do not hurt anyone. different people would have different opinion about that. no one is getting hurt because of the song.
 
Because Vulgar song is provoking brutality? All are not sane minded like us? Even full blown adults dont have that sane minds many times? U see single body guys trying to mimic a Salman Khan or an Amir Khan or whatever? Guys like these have impressionable brains, despite of being full blown adults?

That would be a separate interesting debate. So are you ok with killing of plants, & what about germs & bacteria?
 
lol. someone here asked me for proof that weed is not as harmful as ciggies. i am sure there are definitive studies online that would prove just that. but you guys are just assuming here that vulgar songs ARE provoking rapes. this is the same argument that is used by ****tards in usa whenever there is a school shooting. ban the violent videogames. no one takes them seriously. it's a shame that indian public is behaving like a bunch of pussies asking for a ban on a song that is like years old and no one but a few cares about anyways. just because some idiots are as you say impressionable it does not mean you should ban things for everyone out there. as someone talked about earlier in this thread... you did not ban shaktiman because kids were jumping off the roofs. you do not stop making huge buildings because some people jump off them. you also do not take away freedom of expression just because some people out there are 'impressionable'. if that is how you are going to handle things like... there are shit loads of things that you would have to cover. we do not stop driving because people can die from freak accidents. you do not stop eating meat because some people can die from mad cow disease. and you do not take my right to speak my mind or do what i want to do (as long as i am not harming anyone else) just because some people would do just that.rapes are not happening because people are listening to honey singh songs. rapes are happening because a lot of us are brought up in a society where women do not get the same respect as men. instead of banning honey singh for a harmless song, it is better you protest against the lack of action against the khap panchayats and the *******s who mock the sanctity of women kind on a daily basis.
 
you are completely ignoring the concept of public and private usage here. Am I comfortable with someone changing his clothes in front of my family? no. Am I comfortable with someone changing his clothes in his own house, WITHOUT disturbing me in any form, yes.

Hmm.. But what if someone says that according to him its decent & his interpretation/intention is not of harming anyone . Why would you have any problem?

i am not a member of peta. i like eating non vegetarian food. i like washing my hands. am i against whaling in japan? yes. but that makes me a hypocrite. and as you can see, i am accepting that fact. but then it's my opinion. i am not enforcing it on anyone. i was brought up as a vegetarian. my parents do not object that i started eating non-vegetarian. that is pretty reasonable in my opinion. they respect what i choose for myself. and i respect their views by not eating the gory kind of meat in their presence :D

well here is the crucial part. there are laws against public indecency. and there are laws against a lot of other things. even if we are against them, there is little we can do about it. if honey singh sings a song and sells it internationally, it does not make him a criminal in india. listening to songs with vulgar lyrics is also probably not illegal in india. filing a fir against him for something he did not even do inside india and is probably not even illegal in the first place? well i am not sure how stupid is that. i wish there were laws in india to punish people filing such stupid FIRs in india. we are in a way becoming like america. filing an fir has become fashionable. sadly, you can file a stupid one if you are an IPS officer. but if you are a common man and some member of your family is raped, you have to find contacts or bribe to get a FIR registered.
 
@admin - My personal argument at this point is of public availability, broadcast & usage. And my argument is that the law is THERE and if YOU feel its wrong, feel free to pursue to have it amended. Why are you questioning someone asking it to be followed. And to say Honey Bunny caused rapes is going overboard & I am not in favour of putting him in jail, rather repramanding him & let him go. And stopping public usage of them. If still he wants to sing in his bathroom or someone wants to ask him for a private performance. Nobody can & would try to stop them. But allowing it to be generally available like guns/weeds is kind of endorsing/accepting that behaviour as being norm. And that sets a bad precedent.

That's what my point was. If I deem it indecent, it shouldn't be done in front of me. my definition of decency shouldn't be applied to what person A and B do without concerning me (and by do, I am referring to things like listening to songs etc. not raping, killing etc.). youtube in my view falls in the latter, you will not be subjected to a random video on youtube unless you want to see it unlike films or tv or radio where you may just be sitting and be forced to watch something. So yes, that particular honey singh song should not be aired on TV/radio etc. but I am not concerned if its on youtube. The onus on ensuring that your kids should not be listening to such music should be on the parents and not on the government.
 
Well, if he sang in US & its on youtube, no one can question it. Can anyone question Sherlyn Chopra for example? No. But can they question if she does the same in India. Yes. Because there is something called law of the land. And here too we have laws, if you want to have them amended, feel free. But how/why are you questioning someone who is endorsing it? Arent you guilty of doing the same thing, that you accuse the same person of forcing his view down your throat?
