14 Years in Prison for a joke - isn't it absurd?

You would land up 14 years of imprisonment if you pass text a joke on Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari.

Is Pakistan a democracy? don't know. But reading this news made me laugh my heart out.

No more Chest Pain please, its time we get a change.

I am trying to recollect the first instance of a Politician getting a Chest Pain immediately he / she got arrested due to some wrong deed of him / her. (Believe female politicians are also not exempt).

The rampant abuse of this option I believe started in mid-90s.Or maybe I started noticing them in mid-90s, as it was the age where I started to think a little. I believe we need to applaud them for the fact that they never even seem to hesitate to act like that, even though it is a clumsy, silly act which can be clearly seen by everyone. Even when I used to cut my school / college I used to think of more creative ideas, despite that I used to get caught occasionally. Whenever somebody notices my clumsy lie, I used to be ashamed of myself and never again used that again.

But these guys don't give a damn about that. Whenever they get arrested, they complain about a chest pain and get admitted to the hospital.

The case of TDP legislator T V Rama Rao, reported in Times of India, is one of the clumsiest I have ever seen. He was arrested for harassing a girl in a Nursing institute run by him. And as usual he complained of chest pain and was taken to the hospital.

The doctor, who examined him after the tests, said his condition is stable adding "he has no heart problems."

Don't know whether he has been moved to a jail or he is still ensoying at the hospital.

Whatever be the case, Guys no more chest pain please, its time we get a change.. As a responsible citizen who elected you, we need at least this privilege.

PS: I have a doubt since TDP's rival Congress is in power, the doctor mentioned like this.
