These are the reason why I do not like the Pakistani government or its culture. They do not have freedom of speech, the concept of human rights is a joke, corruption is so deeply entrenched that government workers accept bribes out in the open, child brides are legal, rape victims must produce four witnesses and violence against women is legal. I could go on and on. Some people could argue that it is their culture and we must respect their culture. I agree to some extent and the US itself is filled with crime, racism and violence. The difference I want to point out is here in the US at least there is the chance of obtaining justice. Human rights are protected under law and an individual has the opportunity to bring his or her case to court. Lets put it this way who here would want to live in Pakistan, would want their children to be raised there, to have their sisters, mothers, daughters raised there? I say put your money where your mouth is.
