despair must give way to action

This was on auto print and should have got posted on 19 April.  I don't know why it did not.  Anyway, i still think the points are relevant and therefore am posting it now

I am thinking what's the point of latent anger. When a heinous crime takes place we have to hit back where it hurts. What is the biggest weapon a rapist uses after the rape is long over? Emotional and mental degradation. We need to turn the table now. We need to make sure that it is the abuser and not the abused who is shamed. How can we as a society do that?

1. Let us spread the names of the accused and their pictures through all sources on the net

2. Let us flood the newspapers with mails and put pressure to have these 'students' suspended from their colleges till the matter is being investigated

Another weapon that the accused will use will be to exploit the justice system and keep the case in abeyance till it fades from the public memory. let us fight that. The accused belong to business families right? Then let us find out what businesses their families run and call for a ban on the products or services that they offer. Do that till the decision is delivered.

Any other ideas? Let us give it back.  Here are my suggestions:

1. find out the missing details and fill them in

2. spread the word by forwarding this message

3. add to it by writing on your blogs and mails

Let this reach a cresecendo. make sure they don't get away with it.
