Misplaced blame
by Amish Mody on Jun 08, 2007 01:52 PM   Permalink

Just because some idiot wrote offensive content, the entire system can't be blamed. The blame is clearly misplaced. The person needs to be addressed. Same situation occurs when a statue gets defiled, the individual or party responsible is never apprehended. But buses are burnt and a bandh is called. Yes one cannot write derogatory things like this without having the guts to face reprecussions. But at the same time, the system cannot be blamed. If this ban is imposed, then the government should start banning every platform including Television, radio and hoardings. These could also be misused mindlessly to offend a certain group of people!!
