blame it on rio

Just saw a sad incident of a family that got swept away in a sudden water current while on a picnic.Flash news on the ever enthusiastic electronic media,sansani on star news , and views, opinions , blame game etc starts.Now if one sees where they all were perched in the first place( middle of the river basin on a stone) inspite of warnings then who is to be blamed.If you sit in the middle of a river that ends up in a waterfall in the midst of monsoons are we doing the right thing in jeopardizing the family.Educated, MBA students and people from a good family do this then how can we ever create a safe environment.Is is that when ever we put rules and regulations" Indians in general "have to find a way to break it??Do we have to be told like school kids "don't spit", don't trespass" don't this, don't that!!!!!Its like knowingly committing suicide.Are we trying to project a macho image,or are we just deriving a sense of false pride and get a kick from doing such stupid actions.We will overload transport vehicles, we will go the wrong way in a no entry,we must park in a no parking zone, we will create a noise in the silence zone,we will dirty a place which is not ours ,because it belongs to the public.Who then is the public?Why always blame the governance?Again we come to the same point.Until and unless we stop committing such stupid mistakes we have no chance of being respected as global citizens.Where is all that common sense???Please for heavens sake drive this sense into one and all right from birth and create a sense of responsibility and accountability( zimmedari and jababdari)in each individual that when he grows up he practices what he preaches and make this a safer and better world ,a better India.How come these things don't happen in other countries?Or are they less hyped or is the media less active???May be they have better educated citizens who own the country and are proud to be part of it.
