NOT CONDEMNING IS WRONG

A paper unworthy of reading

Reading from the infamous mouthpiece of the dominant party of the ruling coalition about a criticism by a persona non Grata lambasting DAP of not condemning the murderers of Sosilawati and three others really make me want to vomit. It is nauseating and so childish of such newspaper to publish such shallow and tantamount to racism comment from such person.

First of all, not all matters should be sensationalised such as a criminal act involving brutal and inhumane conduct as it may severely affect the feelings of immediate family members of the victims. Sensationalised such criminal act by a well-known publication demotes their status like ordinary tabloids which seek readers by doing the same without considering the fact that such may not be true and against the sanctity of human beings.

Murder is an act of unjustified killing and thus a crime. As such, it is not necessary for anyone and in fact everyone to demonising such act as it is a known fact that such conduct is wrong whoever the victims and alleged perpetrators are. Not every thing should become a political tool to gain attention as there are other things need to be considered apart from gaining attention and cheap political mileage. Lives have been lost forever and to take advantage of such heinous crime is an insult to sanctity of life and dignity of both the victims and their family members.

This is why so many hate politician and why many abhor and distance themselves from politics by condemning it as dirty. What really makes politics deem dirty is because of people like the one mentioned above, who is in reality a political whore looking for attention as he is no longer needed. Such inconsiderate behaviours by some politicians-whores should not happened as aims should never justified the means.

Boycott Utusan!
