Remember that viral video from Davao, the Philippines where a boy took more pity on a carabao than a man when it seemed like both were drowning in a flash flood? We’re guessing that one probably made you chuckle!
Besides, who wouldn’t laugh at the footage when the kid can be heard in total panic as he expressed greater concern for the carabao than the man. The hilarious short clip later achieved viral popularity on social media as it cracked up thousands of netizens everywhere.
#1 A video is going viral on social media in which foreign tourists (a male and a female) can be seen getting beaten up by professedly by cow vigilantes at a beach in Goa after they pushed a stray cow.
#2 “Hindu extremists” in India assaulted several foreign tourists after they tried to push a cow away.
#3 They can be seen beaten up with slipper and stick.
#4 In the video, one can also see a cow moving nearby.
#5 This incident has been catching everyone’s attention and has been raising people’s eyebrows.
#6 Shared on Facebook by Pakistan Affairs, the footage shows us a bunch of foreign tourists being attacked on an Indian beach after they attempted to push a cow.
#7 The page captioned the video this way:
“Shining India. Foreign tourists were beaten by Hindu extremist mob in Goa after they tried to push away a cow.”
#8 A message is also getting viral with the video.
Aires Rodrigues, a resident of Ribandar, Goa posted this video on Facebook on April 16 and wrote: “This video has gone viral across the world. It was shot by a foreign tourist on a Goa Beach. A foreign lady tourist tried to move the *COW* away from her. For this reason, she and her family members were mercilessly beaten up. Cow vigilant of the BJP making India shining? “Incredible India for Cows”!
#9 It’s really absurd and while the above-mentioned video from the Philippines was funny, this one totally isn’t.
#10 In fact, it’s quite disturbing, to say the least, as we can see the tourists being physically harassed by the locals.
#11 An increase in attacks on Muslims and low-caste Dalits by self-styled cow vigilantes have drawn everybody’s attention to the issue of growing vigilante attacks in India.
#12 The video has since made rounds on the web and many have reacted negatively to it.
#13 Haseenas Haseenas angrily commented:
“Hindus can’t look after their women but they r more bothered about their cows full of b******* cast.”
#14 Meanwhile, Shahid Khan said:
“Don’t travel to this crazy place India, no more business for India. You keep your cows, I will keep my business out of India.”
