people are crazy
by Kedar Deshpande on Apr 10, 2007 02:14 PM   Permalink

i think its upto the people to decide whether they should copy something or not.. in this boy's case i think it is the mistake of the parents that they left the kid unattended watching any channel on TV. Now the court will give an order banning all suicide scenes on TV. Is this going to really solve the suicide problems? I dont think so.. we have to look at basic stuff like education and population control to get rid of such stuff. banning smoking in movies by heroes has not brought the sale of cigarettes down has it?? In spite of the price hike, more and more cigarettes are being smoked.. so theres no point blaming the TV channels.. People say news channels are good for u.. they give u general knowledge and all sorts of crap.. i think news channels show the ghoriest of scenes and get away with it by saying that they are showing the truth.. So are TV channels. Such suicides keep happening all over India and I dont think even 0.00001% of them are done after watching it on TV.. we goot to get to the root of the problem..no use banning such stuff on TV.
