A society cannot change overnight. The change we're talking about will need decades to take place however we can lay down the foundation right now.
In my opinion, such beastly behaviours are a result of ignorance and the lack of proper training. People who commit such acts are probably not very well educated and are themselves victims of psychological and social disorders. This, however,doesn't in any way mean that we should sympathize with them. They should be punished under law for their horrific crimes. But what I am saying is that there might be a way that is better than having to punish them...it is to prevent the things that may transform human beings to complete beasts in our society.
We should emphasize education. This is the answer to most of the problems hounding our country. Proper education should be provided to children, even those belonging to less fortunate families. They should be taught how to respect others' rights, how to abide by the law and how to manage their anger/depression. They should also be given adequate knowledge about Islam and what it says about this life and the life after death. This way, they will fear Allah and think twice before committing any crimes. They will also have a higher realization of their role in society and will perhaps become better citizens.
And of course, on top of that, our law and judiciary system has to improve in order to have proper law and order in the country.
I hope that we can all improve the condition of our country by working together.
May Allah bless our country and help our people find the right path. Amen.

Atleast someone's doing something about the injustices and inhuman behaviour. Makes me feel like hanging the people responsible in a public place. but what difference will there be, between me and them, if i behave like an animal, as they did.
We all have to step up to the plate and do something about it. But i wonder, does it take money to be given away to people, to change thier behaviours. I doubt it but i would like your opinion about it !
Please say how do you think we can induce some common sense to bring about a change for the injustices in our society, in our daily lives. Im looking for suggestions.
Please dont 'view' and then just leave. im not asking for any comments either. suggest your most stupid of the ideas. who knows someone somewhere reads it and might act on your suggestion which might turn a life around somehere. Looking forward to hear from you people.
