I get sadder and sadder as the days go by. Will we ever get justice? Or is that for the selected few?

AK Chishti

What happened today in Karachi has been happening in Balochistan for years – difference? Media is not allowed to show that genocide.

Shaheryar Mirza

For those asking, probably the only reason the video made it out was because his brother was a journalist.

Sabahat Zakariya

All the more convinced that my staunch opposition of gun and violence glamourizing kids at school was valid and the right cause.

Munizae Jahangir

I hang my head in shame as a Pakistani. I will sleep tonight with a heavy heart, knowing the law of the jungle prevails. We are all prey.

Faizan Lakhani

Sialkot, Kharotabad and Karachi - we're heading towards dehumanization of society.

Ammar Yasir

Just watched the Samaa footage and I feel like throwing up. This happened in Karachi, imagine the extra-judicial murders in Balochistan.

Omar Waraich

Would be very interesting to see how many inquiries Rehman Malik has ordered, and how many of them have been completed.
