    Dear sowyrassola: Dude! Are you for real?

    Well, if you must know, the subjets you need to take are: 1. How To Sell Your Integrity For a Couple Of Bucks. 2. How To Put On An Outward Appearance of Being A Modest Public Servant While Concealing Your True Nature of Public Predator. 3. How To Prostitute Your Servises While Feigning Dignity And Decorum. 4. How To Split The Proceeds With Your Chain Of Command (Fractional Mathematics). 5. How To Falsefy Truth While Keeping A Straight Face. 6. How To Generate And Maintain A Private Sourse of Revenue From Panhandlers On Your Beat. 7. How To Use Your Official Status For Private Employment of the Highest Bidder. 8. How To Sell Your Mother, Wife, Daughter At Discount Rates. 9. How To Difficate On Your Uniform And Blame Others Convincingly. 10. How To Be The Highest Scorer In The Most Popular Police Game: FALSE ENCOUNTERS! 11. How To Look At Yourself In The Mirror, Face Your Family, And The Public Without Appearing As A Hipocrite.

    So, you see Shree Sowyourasshola, the list of subjects is exhaustive. These skills are usually acquired by those from gutter backgrounds, but are polished in Police Academies, and on the job. Remember: Practise these skills throughout the day and dream of them at night. Pretty quick, it’ll all come naturally. Your studying Taxation is a very good start. Once you learn how to juggle figures, it’ll be a snap to juggle police reports and innocent lives. Besides, your Pideon English and absence of any real writing skill would put you shoulder-to-shoulder with most IPS clowns.

    But if you truly desire to serve the nation, get yourself a job sweeping the streets or cleaning public toilets. It is more honorable than discrediting the police uniform by lothesome, gutter conduct.

    Make your family proud! Good Luck!

Some Interesting Stats On Arrests Of Women

In 1930, the British govt arrested 17,000 women for their involvement in the Dandi Yatra (Salt March). During 1937 to 1947 (10 Years), they arrested 5,000 women involved in the freedom struggle. From 2004 to 2006, the govt of India arrested 90,000 women of all ages under 498A. On the average, 27,000 women per year are being arrested under this flawed law. These are stats from the NCRB.

The family of the writer was tortured by the Indian Police in an attempt to extort over a $100,000 by holding them in custody for over a week. The police, in cahoots with the magistrate and the PP, did this due to the ridiculous allegations made in a 498A case by his embittered ex-wife. She filed the case years after he and his family had last seen her. Thousands of 498A cases are filed each year in India by women seeking to wreak vengeance on their husbands and in-laws. Enormous sums are extorted from intimidated families implicated in these cases by corrupt Indian police officers and elements of the Indian judiciary. The author and his family haven't bribed any public official nor have they given in to the extortion. This blog aims to raise awareness of due process in India.
