PROTECT THE HOLY COWS AND STOP CULTURAL CHAUVINISM AND RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION. We seek your help in raising awareness of a precedent setting case regarding the Hindu practice of Protecting Cows, which is currently being heard in the New York State Court of Appeals. Last Spring a local Judge banned a Hindu family's cows from their Village home, even though he found that their practices where not causing a nuisance and were not considerably different than the Amish, who regularly drive their horses and buggies through the Village.
