Killing and Eating Goat is not an offense.
But how come killing and eating a blackbuck is an offense?
My Question may sound like idiocy. But rules are different in different occasion.
Blackbuck is a rare kind and goats are in abundance.
So, if people of United States die in terrorist attacks, their life are precious where as if Indian people die, its not that much big crime is it?
We can accept that killing a blackbuck is a crime, because it may lead to complete vanishing of the rare breed from the world. But what kind of punishment can be given to the convicts?
My suggestions are
Heavy fine with a token term of imprisonment.
A public apology.
A Compulsory community service for a particular period.
A compulsory service in the national zoo.
Warning of heavy fine and longer imprisonment if the crime is repeated.

Americans were shocked by 9/11 because most of US didn't realize it was coming...and are so self absorbed that we still have a hard time accepting that the rest of the world doesn't like US as much as we like ourselves!!!! Silly Americans!!!
My sense is that India is more used to random tragedies... Bhopal, train wrecks, temple fires... caused by humans trough accident or intent to be shocked. It is not that Indians love their families any less or value their lives radically differently..... but the Americans most likely to support our idiotic national responses...invading Iraq, threatening the unity of NATO, and the barbarity of GITMO and Abu Graeb... are the ones with little or no connection to the victims.
My sense is that we Americans tend to be more ignorant than malicious... and the Indian people are much more measured in their response to a tragedy.... Salute!!
Thanks for turning me on to your thoughts and reflections.
