One news headline you don't want to hear or read in 2015

Well, it is 'news' that I am talking of... and it could be anything from the driver who makes Uber tremble to the Air Asia plane that has disappeared. I know the year has been full of tragic events and none of us would want any of those tragedies to repeat themselves in the new year. But then rapes, air accidents, murders, bribes, political instability, economic crashes... and so many other things will keep on happenning.

What is that ONE disturbing or not-so-disturbing occurance that you feel should not happen in 2015?

The one thing that disturbs me most is DIVISION.

For instance, the division of a State. If our political masters keep on insisting on these divisions, a day might come when my block of flats might actually be a State and the RWA would be elevated to being the government. No, i certainly don't want this divisive trend to continue.

In fact, any news on borders being dissolved anywhere in the world will be welcome news.

Should we compare like that? Is one woman being raped in Delhi less heinous than 100 children killed in Pakistan or numerous families slaughtered in Assam?

Not comparing... talking about just one thing that should not happen in the new year does not mean that you favour other evil events that have happened, TF. :)

You're right... strikes, dharnas, and rallies only disrupt.

I am unable pick one over the other, this sounds so frivolous.

The times are such that no crime is too big, and no atrocity too small.

I understand there cannot ever be a utopia in any country, but still if prayers go out into the cosmos, then - 

  • I don't want any girl to face the brunt of an acid attack.
  •  I don't want any child molested anywhere.
  • I don't want any child committing suicide because of harassment at school.
  • I don't want a traffic jam blocking an ambulance's speedy run for the hospital.
  • I don't want homeless dying in the cold...
  • And I don't ever, ever want to see a child serving me tea at a roadside dhaba or selling toys and balloons at the traffic signal.

One more wish is that nobody goes to sleep on a hungry stomach. That there's enough food for all.

Ragini , My thoughts exactly 

  • I also do not want any maiming/ killing /rapes in the name of religion or caste or any reason what so ever in the world
  • The list would be infinitely long ,there is no evil deed lesser than others .You cannot say which evil is ok to be a headline ,even job cutting is bad ...
  • I wish for peace and harmony which I know is too much to ask

Well... "no rap sessions between subramanium swamy and digvijay singh, death of good people" is too bad. We cannot surely survive only on what Kapil Sharma doles out to us.

I'm sure North Korea isn't going to annex South Korea so long as they (the northerners) are getting their moments on Hollywood flicks!
