Revenge and injusticea link recommended by kactus on September 21, 2005 - 11:02pm
Via Pandagon, a story about a group of women in India who had been repeatedly raped and terrorized by the same man over a period of years. Finally, At 3pm on August 13 2004, Akku Yadav was lynched by a mob of around 200 women from Kasturba Nagar. It took them 15 minutes to hack to death the man they say raped them with impunity for more than a decade. Chilli powder was thrown in his face and stones hurled. As he flailed and fought, one of his alleged victims hacked off his penis with a vegetable knife. A further 70 stab wounds were left on his body. The incident was made all the more extraordinary by its setting. Yadav was murdered not in the dark alleys of the slum, but on the shiny white marble floor of Nagpur district court. Kind of puts my "just shoot the motherfuckers" meme in a new light, doesn't it? ( links: feminism )

![]() edit my blog posts, but since this is a weblink I was unable to find a way to edit it. So be a darling, artemisia, and do it for me? :) (1)
That old vigilante justice kicks right in. (1)
