Peacock ji,
I was not talking about professional education, and I agree I did not clarify when I used word 'education'.
I am talking about opening up ones mind , looking around and embracing the logical way of living life, not continuing on old dakiyanusi practices on the name of 'my culture' , 'my religion', 'faith has to be blind' , 'this is what our granddads did', 'my neighbor is watching me' .
I meant, Opening the mind up and educating one self.
A person may be doctor but with a closed mindset or being utterly religious towards illogical faith or few other ills of society may make him to behave illiterate ! ...and only closed mind can make you kill somebody.

If Destiny was to blame for all the problems we face as a society, India would still be a British colony, Penicillin amd Quinine would not have been invented, Polio and Small Pox wouldn't have been a history.

Now the brother-in-law is charged in the case too. Kind of disturbing that all the cases took place in a specific Brampton neighbourhood.
No one seems to be speaking about these cases - sounds like an extreme case of political correctness.

Don't these people value a human life? Isn't it a time for introspection rather than media like Toronto Star plaving a moral police? Considering the % makeup of Canadian societv, can these incidents be considered above average? Can this be case of few bad apples giving a bad name to entire South Asian society?
This is not only the case with South Asian society. You will find such kind of horrendous acts in each and every society and all over the world. The case is Luka is one of them. They are highlighted more if SA society is involved. The only thing which is responsible for this is 'stressful life'.
Thanks to the technology which brought so many luxuries and facilities in our life, it also got us some troubles as a side effect and the major of them is due to 'stressful life' and 'greed'. It is very very important to get control over this two factors. It can motivate any gentleman to do most barbaric act in the world.
