Someone planning to abuse dalits simply is going to jail for 7 years unless the person lives in a village where no one knows about these laws.

 

[Agnostic_Indian]

The right to eat steaks is well worth fighting each and every Indian Hindu nutjob that opposes eating of beef.



Why not? The people who want to eat it, can eat it, the people who don't just don't pay for it.

this is what exactly my opinion is. fake over sensitive fundamentalists can go to hell.

 

[junk]

Hindus are't strict about not eating beef. Most don't but some do. But beef is usually used to offend Hindus historically. even during Goan inquisition, Hindus were made outcastes by the missionaries smearing beef on their faces .

There are scriptures which define where cow slaughter was banned during tough times such as draught/famine both in islamic, christian & hindu texts but tht was only for short term, later the consumption begun after the draughts/famines were gone.

having said that it would be nice to see how the cows taken away from the slaughter houses are treated, i have heard their situation is far worse than as they die of hunger in cow shelters ? so much for the love for GOW MATAS

What is a Hindu, he can also be Atheist Hindu or liberal Hindu.

@Junk are you of Indian ethnicity mate.

no it is not related to the topic by any margin, the topic here is Hinduism & its Facists draconian laws to ban beef to deny poverty ridden muslims & daleets the dietary proteins they need.

 

[Joe Shearer]

Your post is somewhat contradictory, from what i read in the article, no cow was slaughtered on the campus, rather the group just wanted to enjoy the Beef delicacies, as you said there is no problem in consuming such.

I'm puzzled.

What did he say contradictory?

 

[junk]

@Junk are you of Indian ethnicity mate.

off topic, the topic here is Ban of beef in india.

 

[jayron]

no it is not related to the topic by any margin, the topic here is Hinduism & its Facists draconian laws to ban beef to deny poverty ridden muslims & daleets the dietary proteins they need.

I think it started with banning satanic verses to appease the muslims and then the Hindus wanted special treatment too. so we should first lift the ban on satanic verses. so lets start with it.

I also feel like my creativity is being starved on purpose by preventing me to draw cartoons of prophet mohammad public walls.

 

[anonymus]

they are banned cuz they show religions in bad light, now how is eating beef showing a hinduism in bad light ? it would be interesting to see what are those sentiments which are hurt and what is the base of those sentiments ? i have read hinduism does not really ban beef, if beef can be banned cuz cow is treated as god, then same should good to pig which is avatar of vishnu ?

And actually how does if someone eats beef,it shows Hinduism in bad light.This is the most stupidest logic i have heard from anyone.

First of all i do not have problem with people eating beef.You can eat beef to your heart's content in my presence and lot of my friends do that also.

Regarding Cow being considered as sacred in Hinduism.If Cow is considered as sacred in Hindu religion and you are eating Beef in front of an orthodox hindu,the only thing it proves is that you are an a$$hole who does not have common manners.It in no way reflect poorly of Hindus.

lol cam down n read carefully. I am in favour of beef, cow, pork slaughtering.I was saying I too do have the same opinion which asim said.

 

[Lonely Hermit]

Indeed you do even i follow this rule eat what ever moves apart from canabalism(for obvious reason) and Beef because of cultural insensitivity.

It is banned because of cultural insensitivity that is a big thing in India we Indians are tolerant lot when it comes to beliefs of people and it is a necessity when there diverse group of people.

 

[Joe Shearer]

Pork has been consumed by Dalits here in North India and Beef does not served anywhere even I have not heard any of my friend having beef being non vegetarian.

Most of the people opt for chicken or mutton.

You have led a very sheltered life.

lies, lies more lies, beef was banned in india much before satanic verses, the only reason beef is banned in india cuz hindus are scared tht muslims might become physically strong to hindus as beef is a very good source of protein.

Really a joke of the century, i cannot really belive this what else can you expect from a facist country with no brains ?

Attention non-indian forumers & lurkers if people can be sent to prison for 10 years just for consumption of beef, what is this & how worse can it really get??

If this is not facism what is facism ? i stand by my assertions india is facist country Period.
