One should learn to look at issues critically. And one should also know to keep issues separate. Comparing one crime with another can't bring an excuse to cruelty. Cruelty need to be stopped, not indulged by other examples. While I don't agree with revoking the degrees, I am also of the

Even if the details of the incident have been exaggerated, the fact remains that an animal was beaten to death in a hostel room. I think that's a crime by any standards of a civil society. Just as a gun is not allowed in JNU campus, I don't think killing an animal in the hostel rooms is allowed.
