I've worked in a slaughterhouse, have seen it done close as you like, and formed my own opinion on how humane non-stunned slaughter is
So, what's yer problem then?
(Other than the obvious; being a narrow-minded bigot, of course...)

What, exactly, is bigoted, about believing that slaughtering without stunning exposes the animal to an unnecessarily greater level of stress and pain than the alternative, mon petit Napoleon?
C'mon - what makes me a bigot?

Apparently it's because you disagree with the Small Hitter. Didn't you get the memo?

Erm, the fact that you're a bigot?
You advocate chasing a wild animal to the point of exhaustion, then ripped apart by a pack of baying hounds, and you want anyone to take you seriously over the slaughter of animals in the UK for food?
'Ooh, don't worry about what I do, look at what those nasty Muslims and Jews are up to!!!'
Total hypocrite.

Well, the big difference there of course mon petit, is the fact that, in many circumstances, the alternative method of control is less humane* than the hunt... an accusation that, from experience, I can guarantee cannot be leveled against religious slaughter
(* and over the years I've used every single legal method of fox control, so speak from experience on the issue, that from a humanity and efficacy basis, in upland areas of the UK, I would choose hunting over the alternative methods 80% of the time)
Tell me, Napoleon... exactly what experience do you have of slaughter methods, or indeed of fox control, or is your knowledge on the issues involved entirely picked from the pages of socialist worker?

I've witnessed a number of Halal slaughters, and jolly well have not seen the kind of suffering of the animals that equates to being chased to exhaustion, in sheer terror probably, then ripped to pieces by a pack of hounds.
Tell me, Napoleon
Consider yerself told, Attila...
(Oh, and have a bit of a read up on Halal slaughter and stunning. You might be quite surprised...)
Oh blimey! It's all going off!

The kebabs at my favouritest place are all halal Fred. I suppose I could ask them to put a stop to that. I'm sure they won't mind.
I miss my Friday lunchtime mixed kebabs

The International Fund for Animal Welfare commissioned an Ipsos Mori poll last summer that found strong cross-party support for maintaining the ban, with more Conservative supporters backing the act than opposing it (62% v 33%). Overall, 75% of the British public do not want foxhunting to be made legal again, it showed.
A YouGov poll carried out for the Protecting Animals in Democracy (PAD) campaign published at the weekend revealed that animal welfare issues such as hunting and animal experimentation are deemed to be an important election issue for 41% of the British public. The same poll found that only 21% believing that there is very little animal cruelty in Britain today. "This is the first time that the enormous political significance of animal welfare issues has come to light," said Dr Dan Lyons, head of campaigns at PAD and an honorary research fellow in politics at the University of Sheffield, said: "It's a clear warning to the parties that support for cruel practices like hunting could prove politically disastrous."
just to keep you frothing and ignoring the facts its from the Guardian so obviously part of the class war that oppresses a tenanted worker like yourself

Yeah me too - I thought he was trying to Godwin the thread. On balance seeing where it's gone since, I think it might have been the humane thing.Posted 8 months ago # -

I prefer Halal kebabs to Kosher ones.
This is based on extensive scientific investigations.
