Exactly. "Lack of ruthlessness" it still exists., that is the reason that our army jawans spend time and efforts to wrap the enemy terrorists and soldiers and give them proper burials. I say recycle their bodies (donate the eyes, kidneys, liver, heart to needy) and then use the torso to turn it into a feed for our animals in ZOO, National parks, etc. Is there anyone who will agree with me?

Sikhs are vegetarians because there is a Rahit Nama (decree as agreed upon by all Sikhs) ordered by Akal Takht that declares that Sikhs will be vegetarians. Guru Hargobind, Guru Tegh Bahadur, Guru Har Rai and Guru Gobind Singh hunted and ate meat. Guru Nanak Says "Argument over food to be vegetarian or non-vegetarian is futile" meaning "personal choice"., Guru Nanak also says "Nikhad Mlechh mal pak khaye" meaning "condemn the muslim who eat the kosher/sacrificial meat" thus any meat that is butchered after it is "offered to God" is also prohibited to Sikhs.
Abdali when he attacked Punjab nine times to punish Sikhs, the first thing he did was to win Amritsar, blow up Golden Temple and butchered cows into the pool (to insult and infuriate sikhs). Eac time, The Sikhs under Kapur Singh and then Jassa Singh would capture few Afghani Soldiers and make them clean the Golden Temple.
Namdhari movement under Bhai Ram Singh (who was soldier of Maharaja Ranjit Singh) looked upon British (and afghanis, muslims) as outsiders. He was the first person in India to boycott British clothes, British idealogies, etc. His group started killing Muslim butchers all over Punjab as a protest against Cow slaughter. He was captured along with 100+ of his group (1860s). He was sentenced to "Kala Paani" at Burma and his group was blown up with cannons at Malerkotla. Namdhari Sikhs later were called "Kookas" because they recited their bani with a "kook" i.e. "highly pitched shout". They still exist and are very strict Vegetarians as well as totally against any materialistic things, Namdharis are famous for simple mass marriages with no dowry, music or garish display. Ever since then Namdharis have occasionally rioted against Cow slaughter and murdered the butchers in current Day Punjab, Haryana, Himachal, Delhi and Western UP.
