Three Acceptable Outrages by Saud

By: Saud

Acceptable Outrages are existed thousands years ago, some of them are already disappeared and some are still. in this post, we will look in deep for three of the most acceptable outrages regardless their existence.

Capital Punishment:

Capital Punishment as defined by the online encyclopedia, capital punishment page,  is "a legal process whereby a person is put to death by the state as a punishment for a crime". This issue has been a controversial since its first existence. in many countries, some advocates insisting to keep the capital punishment as a punishment for some crimes based on reasons they think are valid, help to prevent crimes is most of the repeatedly said reason for those advocates, when punishing someone with such hard and deadly punishment, a lot of people who intend to commit a crime will think twice before they even plan or think for this crime.

Gender Discrimination

Gender Discrimination or "sexism" is defined in the online encyclopedia as " a prejudice or discrimination based on a person's sex or gender". sexism is usually against females, in all previous and current ages, we never heard about sexism against males. in the old ages, usually the females do participate in every activities we can imagine, starting from their normal function as birth and raise their children to their participation in some of the toughest activities in the industrial and agricultural fields. Gender discrimination is also existed in the family societies, some families in this modern age still give some preferences to the boys rather than girls, and this may be more obvious in the conservative societies. And to end this situation which can be considered as an act of slavery, United Nations had drafted several agreements aimed to end such discrimination, and they have many agreements in this context such as "gender equality", "empowering women" and some other agreements promote those rights.

Genocide

 Genocide,  according to the online encyclopedia, is the systematic destruction of all or part of a racial, ethinc, religious or national group". This act of Genocide is existed thousands of years ago and the most obvious example genocide we can see in the modern age is what is happening now in Syria where people killed based on their subreligion. more details about the ten atrocious genosides in the history of humanity is in the Listverse website.
