I watched in horror when I visited India and a cousin legit berated a cop for daring to warn him for speeding. Insulted and scolded him until the poor guy was apologizing and calling him âsirâ. I couldnât believe anyone would be that disrespectful to anyone let alone a cop (can get yourself shot in the US acting that way) but the local cousins just shrugged and said the cop should have known better.

That explains the entitled people story I saw this week where someone from India was attempted to be kidnapped back by her arranged marriage groomâs brothers. Police came and were like you cannot kidnap someone. The brothers tried that and it did not end well. Also this happened in Houston so that was icing on top.

This is why everyone used to hate cops except the rich. Then police and courtroom procedurals appeared on early television programming along side suburban expansion/white flight and never left. Now they're more popular than ever. They've done an exceptional job at laundering pro-cop messaging and essentially rehabilitated the perception of law enforcement over the course of the second half of the 20th century.

Because he and his kids were high caste in India, they should be able to get away with acting the way they do in America. One of his three kids is going to prison for stealing people's credit cards at his business (that his dad gave him), the other is banned from most bars downtown for drugging women and trying to beat them, and the third just turned 21 and is already a little weasel.

Excuse the caste system apologist somewhere on this thread. As an Indian living in India, the caste system is a determinant in every social interaction. It has evolved from explicit casteism (which is still very prevalent, don't get me wrong) to general classism, just gauging every interaction and where the other person stands on the social ladder in relation to you.
People will disrespect and behave with impunity towards those 'lower' than them whether it's caste, career, education, financial standing, skin color etc. For example, people think it's their right to be rude to janitors, postmen, drivers, cashiers and such. There's no such thing as common courtesy. Most of my colleagues look at me weird for being nice/friendly to cleaning ladies, guards, drivers etc.

culture. I'm an Indian myself and can tell you how bad it is. Abuse is ingrained in Indian culture which is not usually seen by the outsiders easily. Infact Indians themselves do jo realise how much abuse they go through and how much they put others through abuse.
When asked Indians will say how much they respect anyone coming from outside as the guests are to be treated as gods bht they will never realise let alone accept how they treat those they consider lower.
The caste system is just one way this shows. The Indian society is just based on hierarchy in every aspect. The same person acting kindly towards their peers can easily become abuser to someone from lower caste or economic background which is more common now as the caste discrimination has become illegal.
This woman is a landlord, her brain automatically puts herself above her tenants in human rights and acts just like that. This kind of behaviour is normal from landlords here.
Few days ago you may have seen 2 videos on reddit. One was an ambulance stopped for a politician qnd other was a traffic police men beating an old man with on cycle for trying to dodge traffic. Which for context is very common here as the road infrastructure is jot well planned and people have learned to bend the rules. The policeman only had the right to fine him not abuse him. But the police sees themselves on higher position than normal citizens and police brutality is pretty common. Ghey only treat politicians like how they are supposed to treat everyone.
Recently in the student protests in India an young girl used abusive words against our prime minister just like what happens in every protest around the world. But this time the entire nation lost their mind not over the protest but rather how can a yound person say something this vile to their elder let alone the prime minister. She was harrassed for days online until she had to make a public apology. Qnd our god like prime minister publicly said that he forgives the children but he will punish all the "dimagi naxal"(brainy terrorists).
people were not mad that multiple student committed suicide over paper leaks but they were mad on q young girl saying curse words. It was because that shook their entire ingrained culture of hierarchy.
my english is bad so i will give an example for westerners in their context- its like people got more angry on Epstein victims on speaking out instead of trump raping them. Because they are houng and not prominent enough to say anything against him.
edit- this isn't just indian issue but rather the issue with whole of south asia. From my knowledge the east and south east asia also shows some signs of this but im not an expert on that. i have lived in south asia for 20+ years so i can say what i want about it

The worst part is that the people aren't evil but rather the evil things have become too normal for them that they don't register them as evil. And it takes a lot of effort from them to recognise the problems within their society especially when piliticians and elite class on social media profits from people remaining as it is.
My takes are considered anti national in my country and can even get me in jail if someone decides to go through with it. You can imagine why many Indians are so defensive on Internet when it comes to these things.

Could someone give me some context, I've never heard of her? So she's entered the tenant's unit without permission obviously.

My guess would be she has randomly entered his unit before, aggressively, hoping to provoke a reaction?

He bought a really long garden house and ran it through the kitchen window and had it waiting for her.
He said as soon as she appeared he sprayed her in her face, and continued doing so all the way out the front door.
