Argus Posted February 10, 2017 Report Posted February 10, 2017 A bit more than waterboarding in the world's largest democracy... "The rapists should be hung upside down and beaten till their skin comes off," the minister is reported to have said. "Salt and chilli should be rubbed on their wounds until they scream. Mothers and sisters should watch so they can get closure." http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-38928860 Quote "A liberal is someone who claims to be open to all points of view — and then is surprised and offended to find there are other points of view.” William F Buckley

dialamah Posted February 10, 2017 Report Posted February 10, 2017 Sounds like a horrific punishment. Can't say it's not deserved, though. 21 minutes ago, bcsapper said: It's like a cookbook for cannibals! Haha. Want some nuts with that? Quote
Bonam Posted February 10, 2017 Report Posted February 10, 2017 The quoted article clearly says "rape suspects" rather than "rapists". I don't think suspects of any crime should be subjected to cruel punishments like this until their guilt has been proven to the highest legal standard. 1 Quote

Quote The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so. - Ronald Reagan I have said that the Western world is just as violent as the Islamic world - Dialamah Europe seems to excel at fooling people to immigrate there from the ME only to chew them up and spit them back. - Eyeball Unfortunately our policies have contributed to retarding and limiting their (Muslim's) society's natural progression towards the same enlightened state we take for granted. - Eyeball

CITIZEN_2015 Posted February 13, 2017 Report Posted February 13, 2017 Call me a fascist or isis supporter or muslim fanatic or white supremacist or communist (the list of things I have been accused of being in the past!!!!!!!!) or whatever you like but I believe If someone is a proven rapist then I will not shed a single tear for him no matter what may happen to him. I have said it many times I am strong supporter of Capital punishment for violent crimes against women and children especially unconditional death penalty for repeat offenders. Quote

It's actually a lot more like the sort of thing you'd expect from the right wing of the Conservative Party. The rather overtly hard-boiled minister in the story is a member of the Bharatiya Janata Party...socially conservative, nationalistic, no use for immigrants for the usual reasons, thumbs down on homosexuals, big on globalization and privatization to replace social welfare...like I said, they'd probably have no problem finding a nice cosy corner in any self-respecting Big Tent conservative party. Like peas to carrots. 1 Quote I said now watch what you say they'll be calling you a radical, a liberal, oh fanatical criminal
