The Muslim BBC correspondent is trying to stir up problems among the Hindu infidels. Five times, he refers to vegetarians as “right wing”, which in the BBC lexicon means “bad”. Anything adhering to traditional religious practice is “right wing”, unless it concerns Muslims, in which case we must celebrate diversity by respecting their religion.

And leather slippers too? Indian have this ugly native habit of walking around to stores and malls in sandals.

Those are Muslims. They slip off easily for prayers 5 times a day.

[Slings and Arrows]

Yatta!

[Cronos]

I agree. Let me have my flame-grilled whopper at the right price, not jacked up by 1 billion more wanting to eat beef.

if you can’t afford the regular size, you can get always get the Calcutta

When i was helping out at a charity in Bombay years ago, the leather goods there (high-quality stuff too) was pretty cheap —> even the ones going to make the coats etc. that cost bundles in London were available at a fraction of the price.

Does India have a BATB to track down & arrest beefleggers, steak-easies, & bathtub barbecue??

[GeronL]

The chef looks like he is well protected from the Sacred Cow cult.

Rosbifs & their captive beef-boiler, in his ritual boiler suit.

Agreed!!!!

Beef/lamb biriyani is one of the few Indian foods I can eat.

From “Be Here Now” to “Beef Here Now!”

[King Moonracer]

That gives me an idea. We could have a pork eating contest, followed by a laxative eating contest. Then go pray at the local mosque.

-—Right wing Hindu groups say eating beef is not Hindu practice.-—

Right wing? I see traditional Hinduism as closer to left wing, New Age, veganism.

"Right wing? I see traditional Hinduism as closer to left wing, New Age, veganism."

Among the Right Wingers I know precious few of them like to wash in muddy water with the ashes of dead people and fresh cow poop floating by.

Guess we're just not all that enlightened.

Feed them some good South Texas B-B-Q smoked with mesquite and they will eat beef forever.

[Squawk 8888]

Most leather jackets are lambskin. Cowhide is a lot coarser.

[Tainan]

Simmer down now...there's enough for everybody...

[mikrofon]

Holy cow, Sharbatman!

Sandals are comfortable in hot climate. Don’t need socks and closed shoes to sweat in.
