Woman Is Gang-Raped on Order of Village Council in India

37. Make an example out of this village, and maybe the dissenters will take action in the next one.

There may not have been explicit agreement involving everybody in the village, but their silence speaks volumes. Pressure notwithstanding, is there really an excuse for closing the door and shaking one's head upon seeing this?

The Indian government (not White people) needs to make it crystal-clear that this is completely intolerable in a civilized society; the people responsible probably don't give a flying fig about sanctions or fines or strongly worded letters - direct, unmistakable action needs to be taken. As in the entire tribal council should be at the very least locked away for a long time, or publicly impaled, and perhaps yes, the village burned, razed and the earth salted. While they watch.

The relative innocents can be paid off, given someplace else to live, but sad to say I kind of agree.

Don't bother replying; I'm literally on the way out the door to work and won't be here for the next 12 hours.
