Hinduism often has a belief in, "sanctity of the cow, ... the belief that the cow is representative of divine and natural beneficence and should therefore be protected and venerated" (Brittanica).

One could argue that eating beef is inciting and degrading to [probably a select few] members of Hinduism.

The difference is Hindus won't murder you.

I like this talking point

I think there's a difference between eating beef in a place where that's the norm and eating beef at a group of people to make them angry or mock them.
