To India's Victims of Rape

TO INDIA’S VICTIMS of RAPE Sisters of mine, Daughters of mine Your lot Prey to fall, To the filthy Appetites Of brute men Inhuman men Hyenas of sex Disgrace of Humanity My heart broken My spirit shocked Your innocence Taken Your life Robbed Apathetic to Remain Impossible for me And every man Of this world With decency That’s why I shout To raise an uproar From North to South and From West to the East Castrate the MONSTERS Castrate the BEASTS! © Demetrios Trifiatis 29 December 2012

A Touching tribute. Heart wrenching writes my friend. This incident shocked my nation & we have definitely lost a beautiful heart in its blooming but her sacrifice is not going to get lost and it is going to create a change in our soft laws & judiciary system, where the culprits get saved due to delay in getting justice. Hope you have seen the Video of My song on You Tube. Just Write RavindraKK1 on any search engine or on YouTube & check the Song on Delhi’s Rape Victim WithBest Wishes Ravindra

They should lock them in a room of women, dont think they would survive, whats the saying do unto others etc. But that makes us women no better than them Will the indian govt. act now the world is watching, I hope so, I understand that its a hanging sentence for such crimes in india. I know from what i would like to hang them.... Seren

Cyndi, Since that I had no way of knowing that this was about a specific incident, I commented in what I thought it was about and that is the sex trafficing of young girls in India and other countries..Sara

No, Sara. This is not about that! This is about the young woman who was gang raped on a bus. She is dead, her injuries were fatal. They... put things in her. It is beyond belief and horrible... I cried this morning reading of this.
