Yes there are places where it is difficult to get beef. I have lived in India all my life and am a beef eater. I did not find it difficult to get beef whenever I wanted to have beef. It is a matter of perception that it is difficult to get beef.
What is the alternative. Do you believe people should be treated as second rate citizens based on their beliefs. Look at it from the other perspective. Just because you are from a minority community you dont get the same rights as the rest of the people. How just is that.
What is the alternative. Growing up in a dictatorship would have made you immune to the good aspects of democracy. When you criticise something it is essential that we look at the big picture and understand if there are viable alternatives. Name one system which is a worthy competitor of democracy.
Inspite fo the crackdown on civil liberties in the name of common good in the secular countries, we have many people who are desperate to get into these countries. I dont see a similar rush to go to some of the countries which do not practise secularism. It is time that you get a neutral perspective on things and be blinded by empty rhetoric.
