    I have not seen any video of this incident, but I have seen footage out of India before where things can suddenly take on a mob mentality. There are instances where one man starts heckling a woman, and then suddenly other men in the area see an opportunity and things progressively get worse. It reminded me of what looting can look like in the America—one person breaks a window and then 100 people start reflexively robbing the place.

    I have no idea why things seem to be this way in that region. Hopefully someone who has lived in India can shed some light on why a mob of guys can rape a human with the same careless impulsiveness as stealing a stereo. It is hard for my moral compass to comprehend.
