Preface
In this seemingly civilized and orderly society, we still often see heinous conflicts and harm to vulnerable groups. An elderly man, just trying to make ends meet, was subjected to unspeakable insults and manipulation. This is nothing less than a blasphemy against human nature and a microcosm of various social contradictions. Have we neglected to protect the disadvantaged? Have we neglected the humanistic feelings that city managers should have? This incident has once again sounded the alarm for social reflection.
Causes of events
It was a sunny day, but there was a heart-wrenching scene. A video circulating on the Internet pulls the camera back to an ordinary corner of the street. In the field of vision, a stocky old man was forced to the base of the wall by two uniformed chengguan, and the old man couldn't help but retreat.
Loading...
The white hair shone in the sun, and it also showed that the old man was old. Under his unkempt bun, a wrinkled, old face appeared in the panic. The haggard face was full of panic and helplessness, as if it had encountered the most difficult trouble.
Not far away, several passers-by tried to dissuade but could not do anything, and more onlookers' mobile phones were aimed at this scene, frantically recording this "good show". The old man cowered and clutched a worn-out wooden stick, perhaps the only thing he had to do after his hard work.
Where did it start to get to where it is now? We don't know.
When the old man was forced to have no way out, in the face of the questioning and threats of the chengguan, he suddenly made a heart-wrenching move - he knelt on his knees, slowly bowed down his huge body, and knelt down pleading with the chengguan.
The old man's helpless movements seem to tell the story of his hard life of struggling for survival. At that moment, Zheng Zheng's iron bones were also crushed by the weight of life, and he could only humble and beg for mercy; The vitality that was once under the scorching sun is now only the fear wrapped in the aging shell.
This heart-wrenching scene was recorded by every mobile phone lens, circulated and spread on the Internet, and attracted the attention of thousands of pairs of eyes on the Internet.
At this time, a city manager who was originally aggressive still reacted coldly. It seems that things like kneeling down when you encounter an old man are just commonplace, and you don't need to care. I saw him raise his index finger, pull up the old man's arm, and force the old man to stand up.
On the other side, there are also men in black who want to lend a helping hand to the elderly, but they can't do anything. In the whole picture, in addition to the regret and resentment exuded by the onlookers, only the bitter pleading of the lonely old man remains, like a silent one-man show where power overrides the weak.
Ii. Public opinion backlash
A heart-wrenching video quickly spread on the Internet, turning into a black cloud and enveloping the hearts of netizens. It is like a hammer that awakens people's sympathy and desire to protect the weak.
As the scene of the elderly suffering on the mobile phone screen became more and more vivid, the anger of netizens was burning. They denounced the aggressive chengguan in the video as "shameless to the extreme", and so persecutive and intimidating an elderly man is completely "powerless, but doing cool things".
"It's such an arrogant law enforcement that will make the old man desperate, and he can only consider himself humble and kneel down to survive!" Netizens pointed the finger at the uncivilized law enforcement method of the chengguan, believing that it has completely deviated from the basic requirements of civilized society for law enforcers.
Soon, the call for "caring for the vulnerable and understanding the plight of the elderly" gradually reached a climax on the Internet. Countless netizens pinned their parents on the elderly, shouting, "When my parents are old, will they become like this? They urged law enforcers to be more humane and open up to some hawkers.
Some netizens talked from a philosophical height: "When people reach their old age, what they want most is to be respected and have a basic life." But the scene in front of him just shows the indifference and ruthlessness of the social situation towards the weak. As a result, netizens sighed that "the life of the elderly is too difficult", "it is really heart-wrenching to watch", and "I am crying".
In addition to regretting the old man, a considerable number of netizens began to seek a fair investigation of the incident. They hope to restore the truth and avoid the ambiguity of "who is right and which is wrong, and who is right and who is wrong". After all, "if the old man is also at fault, we should not blindly defend him". Therefore, everyone unanimously called for a clear investigation at all levels, no matter what the final result is, and make a fair and reasonable treatment.
As the saying goes, "is tolerable or intolerable". This video seems to have stabbed the softest part of people's hearts, aroused the collective attention and indignation of netizens, and made everyone put aside their prejudices and prejudices and look forward to justice together.
3. Initial response from the local government
This incident was like a thunderclap, setting off a monstrous wave in the virtual world, and the deafening sound was quickly transmitted to the ears of the relevant departments in reality. The Hengyang Zhurong Sub-district Office attaches great importance to this and takes action immediately.
Aware of the significant impact and impact of the incident, they quickly joined forces with relevant functional departments to set up a special investigation team. A team of iron cases is ready to be found all over the block, not sparing even the slightest clue. They were determined to get to the bottom of the story and get the truth into their hands.
"Our office will uphold the principles of justice, openness and fairness, and give a true and objective account of the incident. A staff member said. At the same time, the local discipline inspection and supervision departments also ignited a raging flame of rights protection, dispatched a sharp line of supervision, and strictly controlled the entire investigation process.
The office even made a decisive decision that impressed the outside world - to suspend all the duties of the chengguan involved and ask them to cooperate with the investigation. It can be seen that they are ready to start a hearty showdown with the majestic tiger power of public opinion.
This marks the beginning of the official path of writing the truth. They will adhere to principles, uphold the spirit of the rule of law, and will not show favoritism or fear of the powerful, just to restore the original appearance of the incident and give the public a satisfactory explanation.
Of course, for ordinary people, it is not only official business that is down, but also the desire for justice in their hearts. Everyone hopes that this survey will be truthful and give a real answer to the Internet and society.
In a word, when a difficult incident strikes, those in power should show extraordinary composure and courage, and never be relentless. Only in this way can our city find the answer in the gap between chaos and rules, and let justice perpetuate.
Fourth, netizens questioned and responded
After the Zhurong Sub-district Office made an initial response, the Internet was still boiling and noisy. That video was like a burning fire, burning the prairie in the hearts of netizens, and completely igniting the dissatisfaction with the official treatment.
"Just suspend work? What kind of disposition is this? It's too gentle!" Voices of skepticism have come and gone, hanging the initial official response on the hook and bombarding it fiercely. In the eyes of netizens, suspension alone is not enough to calm the public's anger, nor can it scratch their obsession with fairness and justice.
"This kind of arrogant attitude deserves to be severely punished! Angry netizens spat and flew, eager to point out the thousands of people involved in the city management and send them to the eighteenth layer of hell. They denounced the government's decision to deal with such a "moderate and excessive" policy as a complete connivance and cover-up for those who have gone too far in law enforcement.
Soon, more and more doubts and suspicions began to spread online. "Suspension without pay, isn't it just a long vacation for him?" Some have begun to wonder whether the suspension is just a temporary official rhetoric that has not really had a real impact. In the blink of an eye, the dissatisfaction of netizens skyrocketed.
"Severe punishment will not be granted!" In the end, the call for severe punishment against the chengguan involved reached its climax online. Countless netizens were filled with indignation, raising their arms and shouting that they would bring the "bestial" law enforcer to justice, and they must not let it go.
In the face of online doubts and dissatisfaction, officials have remained silent. But this silence also made netizens' suspicions and suspicions of "collusion between officials and businessmen, favoritism and malpractice" take root and sprout in their hearts. The authorities should think twice before taking action and be cautious in this matter, so as not to be completely swallowed up by the great wave of public opinion.
Fifth, the Government finally dealt with the confusion
In the doubts and appeals of netizens, the final result of this matter is still confusing and full of variables. Like a layer of mist, shrouded in the whole picture of the truth, everyone can only look forward to it.
Which branch of the matter will end up in lies in the final results of the investigation team. If, after an in-depth investigation, it is confirmed that the old man is indeed an unarmed and innocent person, then the illegal law enforcement behavior of the chengguan will undoubtedly become a lever for him to be severely punished in the final punishment.
However, if the cone-shaped searchlight of the investigation clearly outlines the faults of the old man one by one, so that the responsibilities of both parties surface, the scale of treatment will be different. At that time, the official will only have to weigh the magnitude of the responsibilities of both parties and make appropriate lighter or heavier punishments.
In the face of these unknowns, netizens can only be fearful, wandering repeatedly between suspicion and hope. This side of the venue roared hard to make the chengguan "unable to escape the punishment of extrajudicial interference". The other party outside the field shouted that "the old man is not at fault, and the law enforcement is corrected in a timely manner". Countless voices intertwine in reality and online, forming a contradictory and chaotic atmosphere.
Obviously, the authorities are already in a dilemma. If the characterization of the elderly is biased, the Internet will inevitably inspire them to "black and white, mediocre and incompetent". On the contrary, the punishment of the chengguan has been repeatedly dissatisfied and questioned by netizens.
Behind this, in fact, is a cross-interpretation of society's desire for fairness and justice. Some people ask themselves whether they have stayed away from the contradictions between the government and the people for a long time to promote such a "thrilling" farce. In the final analysis, the government's handling of the matter needs to take into account legal principles and public opinion, and make a balance between facts and reasonableness. Only on this basis can they win the recognition of society and finally resolve this contradiction in a reasonable and measured manner.
epilogue
This incident has aroused widespread concern and reflection in the whole society, and it has brought us a good opportunity for reflection and vigilance. Everyone should respect others, care for the weak, help each other, and use civility, reason, and conscience to resolve differences and contradictions. At the same time, law enforcers should hold the scepter of fairness, perform their duties in a humane and caring manner, and avoid arrogance and rudeness.
Only when everyone has good intentions and tolerance can society move towards true harmony and stability. Let us all hope that we will go further and more steadily on the road of civilized rule of law. Government departments should attach importance to and properly resolve such mass incidents, and create a benign environment of inclusiveness and prudence.
And each of us as an individual member of the public should also contribute to the construction of such a warm and friendly social atmosphere. Start from the family, start from small things, and use love and positive energy to eliminate all hatred and suspicion. When the seeds of civilization are sown in everyone's hearts, the world will become a better place.
