This is a news that has recently aroused heated discussions among netizens. On the afternoon of September 6, a motorcade led by Sun Hao, the magistrate of Hengyang County, Hunan Province, was stopped by a woman while going to the countryside to inspect environmental protection work. The woman knelt down and shouted, however, immediately someone took control of the group and did not stop. The county leader in the video is County Magistrate Sun Hao.
This scene is reminiscent of the ancient blocking and shouting. Stopping a driver and shouting grievances means that the person who shouts grievances holds up a paper in his hand and kneels on the road where the emperor, ministers or officials drive and palanquin to stop and complain about grievances. This form of shouting grievances is known as "inviting the car to drive", and officially appeared in the Northern Qi period, that is, when the emperor was out, blocking the emperor's car and horse appeal.
So, why did the woman stop the county magistrate's motorcade? What grievances does she have? By her own account, she stopped to reflect on the problems among the shareholders of the business. She said she and her husband were among the shareholders of a business, but were later pushed out by other shareholders and threatened and intimidated. She said she had repeatedly reported the situation to the local government, but none had been resolved. She said she knew of an inspection by the county governor that day. That road was the only one he had to cross. She stopped the car to reflect the problems between the shareholders of the business.
However, the county magistrate Sun Hao has a different view on this. He said his car passed by that day and did not see villagers blocking the road. It wasn't until the convoy staff informed him that he learned that villagers were blocking the road. He indicated that personnel had been placed to know the specifics. As far as he knows, the villagers reflect the contradictions between the shareholders of the enterprise.
These two statements contradict each other, but who is telling the truth? It is clear in the video that the woman did stop the first car and knelt on the ground and shouted. The vehicles behind also stopped and did not continue to move forward. If the county chief really didn't see villagers blocking the road, why did his convoy stop? If he really arranged for personnel to find out about the situation, why did the woman say that no government personnel were looking for her?
This matter has aroused widespread attention and discussion among netizens. It was argued that the woman was overstepping her level in appeal and that she should not complain to officials in this way. Some people think that the county chief is perfunctory and should not ignore the demands of the people. Some people believe that this is a typical case of collusion between officials and businessmen to deprive the people of their interests. Some people believe that this is an ordinary civil dispute that should be resolved through legal channels.
In any case, this incident reflects some of the problems and contradictions that exist in our society. Like what:
The people's trust in government departments and judicial organs is not high. Many people feel that it is useless to complain or litigate to government departments and judicial authorities, or they will face greater repression and retaliation. Therefore, they chose some abnormal ways to express their dissatisfaction and demands, such as blocking cars and shouting grievances, petitioning, self-immolation, etc. These methods not only bring interference to the social order, but also bring more trouble and risk to themselves.
The service level and credibility of government departments and judicial organs need to be improved. Many people feel that government departments and judicial organs are unfair, inefficient, and opaque, or that there is favoritism and corruption. Therefore, they have doubts or opposition to the decisions and judgments of government departments and judicial organs, and even take some radical actions to protest or resist. These actions have not only brought pressure and challenges to government departments and judicial organs, but also brought hidden dangers to social stability and the construction of the rule of law.
The issue of social fairness and justice has not been effectively resolved. Many people feel that there are various injustices and injustices in society, such as the gap between the rich and the poor, power rent-seeking, profit transmission, bullying and oppression of the weak. Therefore, they are dissatisfied and indignant with the current state of society, and even have some extreme thoughts and behaviors. These thoughts and actions not only bring harm to social harmony and national unity, but also hinder the happiness and development of individuals.
These problems and contradictions are what we must face and resolve in our social development. We cannot shy away from or ignore them, nor can we deal with them in a simple or violent way. We need to deal with them rationally and by the rule of law, and address them in a reform and innovative way.
Specifically, we need to do the following:
Enhance people's trust in government departments and judicial organs. Government departments and judicial organs should persist in taking the people as the center, actively respond to the concerns and demands of the people, and promptly solve the difficulties and problems of the people. Government departments should strengthen service awareness, improve work efficiency, standardize work procedures, optimize work processes, and improve work quality. Judicial organs should strengthen fairness, raise the level of adjudication, ensure adjudication authority, increase trial transparency, and enhance the credibility of adjudication.
Improve the service level and credibility of government departments and judicial organs. Government departments and judicial organs should persist in administering and adjudicating according to law, strictly abide by the law, strictly implement legal rulings, and strictly punish violations of the law. Government departments should strengthen honesty and self-discipline, prevent corruption, accept supervision and inspection, correct erroneous practices, and improve their work methods. Judicial organs should strengthen their own construction, cultivate outstanding talents, improve systems and mechanisms, innovate work models, and improve work capabilities.
Promote the realization of social equity and justice. Government departments should adhere to the principle of fairness, protect people's rights, maintain social order, and promote social development. Government departments should intensify poverty alleviation, narrow the gap between the rich and the poor, and improve people's livelihood
Government departments should increase poverty alleviation, narrow the gap between the rich and the poor, improve people's livelihood conditions, and enhance people's happiness. Government departments should strengthen their supervisory functions, crack down on illegal crimes, protect vulnerable groups, and safeguard social justice. Judicial organs should uphold fair adjudication, safeguard the validity of the law, preserve the dignity of the law, and promote the progress of the rule of law.
In short, the ancient form of shouting injustice should not appear in today's society. It is neither in keeping with the spirit of the rule of law nor conducive to social harmony. We should express our demands and opinions in a civilized and rational way, and solve our difficulties and problems in a legal and institutional way. We should also trust that government departments and judicial authorities will do their due diligence and provide us with fair and just services and guarantees. Only then can we build a better society together.
