It is my opinion that these kinds of things, dog-fighting, prostitution, gambling, though they are not good things, are not what people should concentrate on. What should be dealt with is the inequality of women. When women have exactly the same rights as men, tackle these smaller things.
Given the continuous bloodshed in the form of terrorism and drone attacks, how could you expect Pakistanis to think compassionately towards animals?
I mean its a matter of mindset. We are so much accustomed to almost daily news of bloodshed that animal cruelty is not even categorized as an issue. Its like cart in front of horse dilemma to expect rational and sensible civic life from Pakistanis without releasing them from WAR OF TERROR.
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP.
While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

A simple question:
