The Day My God Died

Saw a documentary today, The Day My God Died. It's about the prostitution racket in Bombay, India.
Bombay; India's financial hub, Bollywood, land of oppurtunities, most expensive city, home to the most expensive home in the world or whatever great bullshit people think about it. It's also home to the WORLDS LARGEST RED LIGHT DISTRICT. It has to be a must see for any tourist, cmon now.
Here are some of my feelings after seeing the documentary:
  1. Utter disgust at mankind
  2. Utter disgust at mankind
  3. Utter disgust at mankind
  4. Utter disgust at mankind
I will elaborate the points above in the following paragraphs.

1. Utter disgust at mankind
First and foremost I wanna say that mankind includes myself. Now back to topic, oh ya Bombays most happening place. Girls are being trafficked from Nepal in most interesting ways. Drug them with adulterated Pepsi, or a biscuit, or even crumbs of food, or even better, promise to save their child who are dying of some illness.
And when they wake up, they are in the land of oppurtunity with sick oppurtunists staring at their flesh. Thats it for the first point.

2. Utter disgust at mankind
Before I proceed, I wanna give you their(girls) demographic profile.
Average age => 14 years
Virgins => Almost all, except helpless mothers
Thats it for their qualification. Oh shit, I forgot the most important of them all, "they are females with ______".
The fill in the blank will be different for every individual reader, so be as truthful as possible or should I say as human as possible.
Too much off track. So we woke up in Bombays brothel street and now we dont want to work here. But you dont have an option. If you "try" to protest, as per your constituitional rights, then 7 to 15 men gang you up in a room and beat you and rape you till you submit. One girl in the documentary, let her be Aarti, was just a 7 year old, when this happened to her. I mean, I have friends and family who have a 7 year old daughter and I dont even want to think of something like this happening to anyone in the world. Ok now all the non-virgins, do you remember the pain your loved one went through when you had intercourse with her for the first time or her first time. You didnt even want the faintest move of yours to hurt her. But here is a seven year old kid being raped by atleast 10 grown up men who think of her as a piece of meat. What had she done to deserve this? Anyone with an answer?
Ok then now your serving customers who come by the hour or even the minute, and I mean it. Sometimes they need to serve 30 to 40 "customers" a day. Thats a pretty lucrative setup and sums upto 700 million dollars of ROI annually for just one street, in one city, in one country, and hopefully one planet. I so dont want mankind anywhere else. Ok then next point.

3. Utter disgust at mankind
Now you are serving "customers" of all sections of society and ages and occupation and lastly "sickness of mind". One girl denied having anal sex and the "customer" stabbed her to death and covered the employee with a blanket. Basically, if you deny anything then you can expect to be raped, burnt with cigarettes, have acid thrown on you, incisions that make you feel like a curse to life itself.
And our boys in khakhi, the police or the biggest set of bastards on the planet. And being from India myself, I know there are alot of them everywhere. They come to the brothels for their weekly collection; in terms of money or flesh. This is where my blood boils. I mean, it just boils to rip the flesh of these people in power. Just cut them enough so that they can remain breathing. But this is where I get to the last point.

4. Utter disgust at mankind
Ok now I want to just kill all these cops, middlemen, politicians and finally the most important person of them all, myself. I am the biggest asswhole this planet has seen, and am sure you can relate to me(no offence or pun intended). Thats because, I see these things happening, I blame these rascals, I want to bring them to justice or whatever and finally the most important thing, I want to watch the next IPL match which would be starting in a couple of hours because Bangalore has a good chance of qualifying to the semis. I dont know why its not in me and many others, if I can say so. We see, we know whats right, we know how it can be fixed, we know this, we know that and we know UTTER CRAP. I just completed my Masters in Computer Science and trust me I dont know the value of 3 meals a day. So thats what my 18 years of education has succeeded in failing to teach me.

I wish some good things happen in the future, for each and every single person.

And ya, the CV of the girls after 6 months of employment:
Average age => 14 years
Virgins => None
HIV + => 80% (although it can take upto 5 yrs to show up, this is a guaranteed addition to your CV in just a matter of months)

Now to just tell you about Aarti. She got rescued, at the age of 11, by the International Justice Department and resides in a shelter in Nepal. This shelter is ofcourse run by a woman, who is unlike all of us, thankfully. And Aarti has AIDS, and she is getting thin by the day and is going to die pretty soon.
When asked if she has some desire in life, she said, "Earlier when I was a girl, I wanted to fall in love, get married and have children."
Then she was asked again, "Do you have any desire in life?"
Now she stopped gazing at the sky, looked back at the camera and came back to reality and said, "No I dont have any desires.", with a tiny little everlasting smile and absolutely no tears in her eyes.
