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.
EXACTLY the point we want to make! The song is in bad taste, and is full of disrespect for women. So if we cant stop the other "Forms" of disrespect instantly, we atleast shud not look to add on to it.
that song was recorded in pakistan. it was never released in india on CDs or whatever. it was never played on
television as there is no official
music video of it.
from that point of view, pakistan is apparently more liberal than india considering the singers of that song are living a perfectly normal life and they are well known and are often invited at public events to sing the same ****ing song.
Heard of Anti-social elements? When such elements are in majority in a place, such stuff will be accepted, rather than rejected. And i guess, i dont need to remind the plight of women in Pakistan. So for u, liberal means safety given by anti-social elements, or does it mean safety for women?
After answering these, i have another question for u......why do we have the rules against using abusive words on the forum? (May be it wud have been already discussed, but it seems i might have missed out on a lot!)
