      "beat up," seems to be putting it very mildly when shotguns and high-speed chases are concerned

        Yeah, nah, that's insane. Look, you can not like cows being killed. You can be vegetarian. But, they're fucking cows. They have like 12 brain cells. Don't be unnecessarily cruel to them, but don't be killing people over them, ffs.

          Cows in India aren't quite the same deal as simple vegetarianism is in the West. They are treated with a level of religious reverence.

          https://www.britannica.com/topic/sanctity-of-the-cow

          Imagine there was a group of Americans going around cutting down crosses and crucifixes, they'd be met with a similar level of violence.

          Or folks in a Muslim country burning Qurans. You aren't going to get far doing that.

          Mistreating cattle in India is the same sort of deal.

          Now you can argue religion is the insanity, which is a whole OTHER deal.
