Hindu Fundamentalists Killing Muslims Over Cows

THE PRIME MINISTERS OF INDIA IS SPEAKING OUT AFTER VIGILANTE
GROUPS HAVE TARGETED, AND IN SOME CASES EVEN MURDERED
INDIVIDUALS WHO EITHER HAVE CATTLE ñ COWS ñ
OR ARE BEEF EATERS.
SO, THERE IS A SMALL MUSLIM POPULATION LIVING IN INDIA,
ABOUT 14% OF INDIA'S POPULATION, IS MUSLIM, AND SOME OF THEM EAT
BEEF, AND APPARENTLY THE HINDU POPULATION WHICH IS THE MAJORITY
OF ñ IN INDIA, IS NOT IN FAVOR OF EATING BEEF.
SO, AS A RESULT, SOME OF THE VITAMIN LISTS HAVE TARGETED
THE BEEF EATERS IN VIOLENT WAYS.
MOST OF THE ATTACKS WAGED BY SO-CALLED CAL VIGILANTES
FROM FRIENDS HINDU GROUPS HAVE TARGETED MUSLIMS.
COWS ARE CONSIDERED SACRED BY MANY MEMBERS OF INDIA'S
HINDU MAJORITY, AND SLAUGHTERING COWS OR EATING BEEF IS
ILLEGAL OR RESTRICTED THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE COUNTRY.
JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF HOW BARBARIC SOME OF THESE
ATTACKS ARE, LAST FRIDAY, GROUP OF ABOUT 20
MEN ATTACKED FOR MUSLIMS ON A TRAIN IN NEW DELHI'S OUTSKIRTS,
FATALLY STABBING A TEENAGER AND SERIOUSLY INJURING TWO OTHER.
THE MUSLIM MEN SAID THEIR ATTACKERS ACCUSE THEM OF
BEING BEEF EATERS AFTER AN ARGUMENT OVER SEATS.
IN THE LAST THREE MONTHS, AS MANY AS FIVE PEOPLE HAVE
BEEN KILLED AS A RESULT OF THIS NONSENSE.
IT FEELS LIKE AN UPSIDE DOWN WORLD.
FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD BE UPSET WITH PEOPLE EATING BEEF IN
AMERICA ARE, GENERALLY SPEAKING, VEGETARIANS, PEOPLE WHO ARE VERY
COMMON AND NOT LIKELY TO FINALLY ATTACK PEOPLE.
THERE, BECAUSE IT IS ATTACHED TO A RELIGION, WHAT ARE YOU
GOING TO GET?
YOU ARE GOING TO GET FUNDAMENTALISTS.
ARE THE MAJORITY OF HINDUS DOING THIS?
OF COURSE NOT.
BY THE WAY, THE PRIME MINISTER, MODI, IS FROM A HINDU
NATIONALIST PARTY, AND HAS REMAINED PRETTY SILENT ON
THIS FOR A COUPLE YEARS.
FINALLY HE SPOKE OUT AND SAID THAT OF COURSE YOU SHOULDN'T
ATTACK PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN
YOU, AND I MAKE THE SAME POINT ABOUT RELIGION, WHICH IS, I HAVE
NO OBLIGATION TO FOLLOW YOUR RELIGION.
YOU HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO FOLLOW YOUR RELIGION.
SO IF YOU DON'T WANT TO EAT BEEF, HAVE AT IT, OR DON'T HAVE
AT IT, BUT IF OTHER PEOPLE BELIEVE DIFFERENT THINGS YOU ARE
ABOUT TO MURDER THEM.
AND SOME PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY WANT OUR KIND OF SHARIA LAW.
NOT MURDERING, BUT YOU SHOULD FOLLOW MY BIBLE, OR MY
INTERPRETATION OF MY BIBLE, SO I DO WANT YOU GUYS TO GET
MARRIED IF YOU ARE GAY.
SO THEN YOU DON'T MARRY ANOTHER DUDE, BECAUSE THAT'S YOUR
INTERPRETATION, BUT LEAVE OTHER PEOPLE ALONE, AND HERE IN
INDIA UNFORTUNATELY IT HAS DEADLY CONSEQUENCES.
ANOTHER THING IS, IT'S FUNNY WHAT WE CHOOSE TO EMPHASIZE
AND NOT EMPHASIZE.
AND SOME FOR UNDERSTANDABLE REASONS.
NOT A LOT OF HINDUS ATTACKING IN THE U.S., SO IT'S NOT OUR
PROBLEM,
LITERALLY, BUT IF YOU WANTED TO MAKE A BIG DEAL OUT OF IT
YOU COULD GO, LOOK AT THIS, THE HINDUS ARE ALWAYS ATTACKING
THE MUSLIMS.
IN INDIA, THAT IS RELATIVELY TRUE, BECAUSE THEY ARE THE
MAJORITY.
SO YOU CAN GO, BY NATURE, MUSLIMS ARE PEACEFUL PEOPLE
AND THEY ARE BEING UNFAIRLY TARGETED.
AND BY NATURE, HINDUS ARE VIOLENT, IF YOU JUST LOOK AT
INDIA, LOOK, IT'S ALWAYS THE HINDUS ATTACKING THE MUSLIMS.
NO, IT'S A MATTER OF A SOCIOECONOMIC POLITICAL
SITUATION WHERE ONE IS A MAJORITY AND THE OTHERS ARE
IN THE MINORITY AND IT'S EASIER TO ATTACK THE MINORITY.
THAT IS ONLY A TINY BIT OF A SOPHISTICATED CONVERSATION
INSTEAD OF, ME FIND RELIGION, HATE THAT RELIGION.
THAT ALSO MAKE YOU A FUNDAMENTALIST.
SOMETHING ABOUT THE NUMBER OF TIMES WE HAVE DONE STORIES
ABOUT BROAD DAYLIGHT ATTACKS IN INDIA, YOU KNOW?
I MEAN, THE HORRIBLE SEXUAL ASSAULT THAT HAPPENED THERE.
THEY MURDERED THIS TEENAGER AND SERIOUSLY INJURED TWO
OTHERS ON FRIDAY.
THEY LYNCHED THE FARMER.
AND THEN THEY WENT ON TO A CROWDED BUS AND STABBED A
BUNCH OF PEOPLE AND KILLED A TEENAGER.
IT'S A FUNNY THING TO SAY, SO EVEN THOUGH 14% IS A SMALL PART
OF THE POPULATION, IT'S A HUGE AMOUNT OF MUSLIMS IN INDIA.
ONLY IN INDIA IS 200 MILLION PEOPLE A TINY MINORITY.
BUT IT IS TRUE.
AND SO, THERE ARE THESE CROWDS THAT ATTACK SOMETIMES.
SO, 20 PEOPLE ATTACKING AT ONCE, AND IT FEELS SO MUCH
SCARIER WHEN THE MOB COMES FOR YOU.
SO, THERE'S THIS TERRIFYING ASPECT OF THIS.
AGAIN, TO BE FAIR TO THE PRIME MINISTER TODAY HE WAS LIKE,
GANDHI WOULD HAVE NEVER DONE ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
I BEASLEY HE'S A HUGE ROLE MODEL FOR HINDUS, AND NOT JUST
POLITICALLY BUT RELIGIOUSLY, AND I WAS THE VEGETARIAN, ETC.
BUT HIS WHOLE THING WAS NONVIOLENCE.
AND SO, THERE'S OBVIOUSLY FUNDAMENTALISTS OF EVERY STRIPE,
AND EVERY RELIGION, AND THE SENSIBLE PEOPLE SHOULD BE
WORKING TOGETHER.
SUPER OBVIOUS UNLESS YOU HAVE ANOTHER AGENDA.
COULD YOU IMAGINE IF WE MADE THE GROTESQUE CONCLUSION FROM
THIS, IT MUST BE THE HINDUS.
THEIR RELIGION IS INTRINSICALLY VIOLENT.
OF COURSE NOT!
IT DEPENDS ON THE SITUATION, SO LET'S MAKE THE SITUATION BETTER.
