Because in the absence of law and order along with education leaves mob justice and extremism as the only way of thought.
You are right. The vacuum created by the absence of law and order and education is filled by mob justice and extremism. One must therefore pay attention as to why those two things are missing in Pakistan. The evidence would suggest that it s by design so that a privileged minority can hold sway over the entire country and its resources.
(Please note that I am not saying what the evidence suggests is right or wrong, just that it is so.)
What can happen to negate these affects is either education, an enemy that can be fought and faced or a complete breakdown of systems.
We can clearly see that education is simply not a priority by choice, so let's take that solution out. The enemy created and nurtured with great care and attentive efforts is the unifying force, equally clearly, in a security state such as the one we see. This will remain the modus operandi, until the inevitable breakdown of systems accrues enough momentum due to inexorable and worsening issues arising from overpopulation and scarcity of all types of resources for the general population.
That is non-existent for all intents and purposes in Pakistan due to misplaced priorities.
The priorities are not misplaced. They have been carefully determined to be so by design.
However, Ive started to realize that instead of attacking what are clearly outbursts coming from a different background and experience - its better to understand why they are there.
There is no need to attack or attempt rectification of anything. The time for those is long past. Now it is merely a matter of watching the results come in from the priorities of the decades past. Understanding the issues is good, but just as useful tot he patient as an autopsy at this stage of the national evolution.
(Again, please note that this is not an attack on anything or anybody, but an evidence-based dispassionate evaluation.)
The law is misused here
A. Public outcry on the issue
B. The need to show results to superiors /public
C. Relative ease of taking down a effeminate young man
Misused? May be. What is most instructive is that the law was passed and implemented without even a definition of exactly hat "obscene" man within its context. And yet many here would simply go off as they have in this thread, and that, by itself, ir very revealing, if one thinks about it.
The same way it was for lahore harassments, murders or the corruption cases and looted wealth. When as expected it doesn’t really serve justice or solve the issues as has been the track record AND no leadership to look at things introspectively , then you so everything from blaming the victim to calls for mob justice.
Who here remembers the two brothers beaten to death in Sialkot over accusations of theft? The Lahore harassments are merely yet another punctuation mark in this steady march towards madness, which, along with the countless ones that preceded them. This story can end only one way. It is just a matter of time.
(And yet again, please note that this is not an attack on anything or anybody, nor is it a verdict on whether it is right or wrong. It is just an observation of just the way it it.)
