Morality Undefined

Re: # 3 Thank you Nikhat it means the world to me that you can relate to what i felt than and i am feeling now. I sincerely hope that we all have the strength and mettle to do better in such situations.
Munshi Premchand’s quote sums it up very well what I was trying to say doesn't it. Its fascinating to me how deep down we all consider ourselves highly moral people. Thank you again

Morality is a shady business

You have come across an unfortunate incident and you knew that, “If you are not the part of solution, you are part of the problem”. So being a caring, conscientious person with high “Morality” check constantly functioning it must be killing you even after four years. But thanks for sharing it as it could awake some of us. It had surely stirred me up and brought back some memories.
I have always despised the tendency of this herd- silence, indifferent attitude from us when come across such situations. But when I encountered a somewhat similar incident I did same-did nothing simply watched like a cine viewer. My participation could have rescued a little kid from the cruel beating of six feet tall robust man-maybe a guard of some jeweler’s shop in one of the busy shopping arcade of Karachi at daytime. Instead, I just watched, then ignored and continued my shopping like many men, women there at that time. The way that boy was begging, trying hard to free himself from that guard’s iron grip and his sobs whenever comes to mind I feel so little, ashamed of myself.
I remember I was thinking “koi merd ka bacha is zalim ka haath kiuoon naheen pakerta…is bache ko kiuoon naheen churate?” Then after few minutes my rational mind patted my disturbing conscience, made me realised that may be the boy was caught while stealing something... but still…that kind of beating-totally barbaric.
This incident also happened quite some time back. Later I made I a pledge it would never happen again- would never be such a coward again. If I see any wrong doing right in front of my eyes I would stand up, intrude and do my role to save my conscience from future torture.
One of Munshi Premchand’s novel I read named “Maidan-e-Amal” i.e. “Field of Action” which points to this heinous Achilles' heel of us as a society that “Talks of goodness, principles, decency, ethics and morals are good as long as they are simple words but whenever those values are needed for action, few dares to step in the field- and those who dare same society shuns them.”
Thank you again for bringing this issue up so we must come out of this “I should mind my own business” kind of attitude as evil of any kind-big or small, hidden or revealed, public or private needs “Actions” not just mere “Intentions or lectures on Morality” .

The authorities should have been informed and if honest, they would have sorted this mess out better than ordinary passengers ever could hope to.

The trick that they usually employ is this one.

The women's groups come up with a load of hocus-pocus that makes men out to be better treated than women, or that they are far more abusive than is currently recognised. They base these lies on virtually anything that they can get their hands on.

Air will do.

Their feminist cronies in the media wet themselves with delight and publish the falsehoods with large headlines accompanied by exaggerated tales of female misery and woe.

The public is outraged. The politicians are blackmailed (literally) into supporting their malicious causes both vocally and with funding. If they refuse, they are publicly and vociferously castigated as being closet supporters of violence against women and child abuse etc.

In the meantime, the men's groups have no funding to test or to counteract the 'research' and they do not have very much access to willing accomplices in the mainstream media. So there is no protest, and no public outrage at the feminist lies.

A few years later, with any luck, someone, somewhere, manages to prove that the feminist groups were lying all along, but it hardly gets a mention in the media. Besides which, it's too late. The damage has been done. The female population has been enraged successfully against men for a few years over the matter (and over all the other slanders against men that are running concurrently) the laws have quickly been changed to disadvantage men, and the feminists just keep coming up with other lies to replace them.
