If they break the local law，then they deserve a punishment.

Though I am against eating tortoise, locusts, dogs and many other species, I do not think it is wrong of others to do so. In this case, whenever they break the law in foreign countries, they get punished.

Chinese can eat anything they just can't digest freedom of expression and basic freedoms

Maybe. But the main point is that people are questioning the morality of the men - eating endangered species. There's a bit of arrogance there. "Culturally we have been doing it forever, therefore, we will continue to do it regardless of the species and the feelings of everyone else."
