When a state fails to protect it citizens, in case of Pakistan, the state is involved in terrorist activities against its own citizens, target killings, kidnappings for dollars, political murders, Religious murders and prostitution of its citizens to other governments for foreign exchange, treating its citizens as commodities and only give protection to the most criminal and corrupt people who have accumulated, untold amounts of wealth and has siphon the Pakistani money into foreign accounts.
The worse example is the leaders of top three parties, who are the top criminals of Pakistan. Asif Ali Zardari, an international criminal, Altaf Bhai, a serial killer and a British agent and Nawaz Sharif, a thief with no back bone, he bends over faster than a limber Gay Man, for any deal making to save his kingdom of Punjab for himself and the family members and his looted, laundered money outside the country.
Since our majority parties are ethnic centric Mafias or Family, ethnic centric Mafias, the majority parties work like Gangs and have developed gang mentality and survival instincts of a Gang.
A gang mentality allows the individuals who are members to feel invincible, larger in importance and strengthened by the sheer volume of their number. The banding together of individuals who may alone be weak and ineffective becomes a collective force with a singular purpose, usually reprehensible, to exert their presence en masse. The mentality behind this is simple in matters of violence or coercion gang rule cannot be defeated by a lone person or unorganized group. The overwhelming effect of the pressure exerted by gangs is not just in the areas of violence, it has a significant psychological impact on society in general and the community affected specifically. MQM, PPPP and ANP are the good examples of Political Mafia Gangs.
Gangs offer no real contribution to society, other than to cause a log-jam in our court system and add to rising prison populations. They detract from valuable resources in short demand and ruin the lifes of young people Worldwide. In large American cities like Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City, an enormous amount of crime is attributable to gangs, so much that special police gang units have formed to keep up with the tidal wave of gang activity. The sad fact is that for every gang member taken off the streets, there are youngsters eagerly waiting to replace them. The status of gang membership provides them with money, drugs, and a sense of well-being associated with the parent group.
Why people join gangs(pak political parties) and the mentality behind the decision is universal, in that humans by nature tend to gravitate toward associations that they feel will benefit their position in life. An individual with limited resources, educational opportunities, and a general negative outlook at their perspective future are prime candidates for gang membership.
Particularly in depressed economic communities, the youth looks at the thug life as a way out to a more financially secure future. The threat of a criminal charges or prison sentence is considered just another aspect of the gang life, and in many cases is a badge of honor. Within the gang mentality, a member who committed a crime on behalf of his gang and takes the fall in stride is elevated to a higher status, and is accorded more respect.
Without a system in place to mentor the young(a universal schooling system), individuals will continue to join gangs for protection, status and economic benefit. The sad realization of the impact of gang actions comes late in most gang members, and too often comes when serving a long prison sentence or while recuperating from a senseless act of violence perpetrated against them.
