  6. dunnowy123 "No, it often tastes fresher" placebo. it isnt. "and I notice non-halal meat has a smell to it because of the blood." as i explained, the blood is drained in both cases. this is nonsense. "How it it tortured?" read the fucking thead. "The whole point is to slit the throat and kill it quickly." the whole point is that the animal is awake while it endures the trauma that causes it to die. read the thread. captive stun bolt is what people use when they want to kill it quickly without regard for superstition. read the thread. "That's the opposite of torture." killing it as quickly and painlessly as possible is the opposite of halal, which is torture by definition for the sake of superstition.  "Will it not work EVERY time? Maybe. But, so what?" so you are condoning unnecessary suffering and are a piece of shit. "Your in the business of slaughtering animals, it's not supposed to be easy." it is though. we have had the utility of  painless mechanisms for a very long time. captive stun bolt. "And...even if the far right does take power in the UK (BTW, how many seats do they have again?) the political backlash would be enormous. No way that's happening." the right has taken over the whole of europe, barring maybe some of scandinavia, but that is also changing. have you not been paying attention?  "In any case, you might as well ban meat all together, because it's all the same shit." false equivalency. in one case, an animal has a completely painless death, and in the other, an animal drowns in its own blood while it flails around frantically, experiencing an intense fight-or-flight response after having its arteries and trachea severed. "I'd rather advocate for the right of people to eat the meat their religion dictates that the "welfare" (and I put that in quotations because it's dubious) of animals." then you are just a shit person. you care more about pandering to pernicious human superstition than you do about welfare. "I'm sure the Netherlands and Denmark had alternative reasons for the ban and "animal rights" was only incidental." then you are stupid in addition to being a piece of shit.

  7. dunnowy123 "Doesn't it often require multiple stuns to actually stun larger animals?" no. that would just be completely stupid. if that were the case, the stun bolt would me made more potent.   "And  why is slitting the throat and dropping the blood flow to the brain crueler?" i explained this already. the animal is conscious during the entire process. it drowns in its own blood while fully awake.   "Because it's hung and the blood drains down?" hanging upside down adds to the cruelty. it would compensate for the loss of blood pressure and ensure the animal is conscious for even longer.  "I see less opportunities for cruelty than we see with typical slaughtering methods." that is just completely stupid and flies in the face of all conventional understanding and every single piece of evidence. "From the methods are supposed to be used in halal, the animal seems to be treated better if they follow the actual rules." halal determines the method of slaughter, not the way the animal is raised. this is handwaving. red herring. "If an industry is poorly regulated, the standards won't be high regardless if they're slaughtered halal style or not." this is not relevant. red herring. "And just because the right takes power in continental Europe doesn't mean it's going to happen in the UK, which is quite different that most of Europe. Political mobilization on the part of minorities is a whole different ballgame, meaning a "takeover" by the BNP or any of far right party is unlikely." the european politic is shifting to the right. this is a banal statement. "BUT, in the end, I don't really care. I'm still going to eat me. Halal or non-halal. You keep getting worked up over this." then you are just a shitty person. you have conceded all notions of right/wrong suffering/wellbeing and just stated you dont care. irresponsible behaviour from an irresponsible and shitty person.

  21. *****  "Doesn't matter how you kill an animal, be it stun or ritual, killing an animal is killing an animal." absolutely disgusting. in that case, we should stop giving morphine to terminal cancer victims. we should just slit their throat and let them drown on their own blood, instead of spending money and time making their death as painless and humane as possible. if you honest stand by what you wrote, you are a disgusting, benighted piece of shit. "I think everyone should just stop eating meat and this problem will be solved once and for all." eating meat has utility. some people need to eat meat or else they start passing out while walking down the street. babies die because they suckle from their vegan mother and the breast milk is extremely thin and lacks what the baby needs, because the mother does not eat animal products. for some people, not eating meat at all just is not an option. "Are you ready to give up eating meat Volound?" how do you know i havent? stop being such a presumptuous, arrogant piece of shit. "So until you actually give up meat, you really have no say on this matter because the meat you consume is also butchered and the animal dies as a result." bollocks. does not follow at all.  "Also statistics show that stunning is also not right because there is a 30 percent chance that the animal would not be properly stunned and thus feel pain." regardless of its drawbacks, the consensus of relevant experts agree that it is much better to pre-stun animals, so that they are not conscious during their deaths. you need to overturn this consensus or else you have nothing to offer. "If you really cared about the welfare of animals, you wouldn't be buying meat from animals at all. " bullshit. disgusting nonsense. grow the fuck up.

  49. Azim Nazlen "the last thing I said means Right now I don't care of you opinion on the slaughtering of animals(that has spawned this whole flame war)." good for you. i dont provide opinions. i provide evidence-based conclusions. if you think it is just my opinion that ritual slaughter is unnecessary sadism and cruelty, you havent been paying attention or cannot read properly. "But when you commented about that persons worth to live,I know that is wrong and I commented that you cant say that." i already did. "Any good judge looks for the evidence. there not just give one fraction of it and then jump to conclusion  on the value of ones worth to live." based on the available evidence, the person is a worthless piece of shit and should kill themslves. "And the god I beleive in is all knowing and the all wise.of course My god has the complete right to tell the worth of a person because My god has all the peices of the puzzle.While you only have have a peice by one confrontation." non-sequitur. if we accept this, then no human is capable of making any conclusions based on anything as they are not omniscience. absolute nonsense. "So,no you don't have as much evidence as the experts do." of course i fucking do. i already told you i do, because i do. i have the exact same fucking evidence. "And concerning the part when you accepted others opinion by confronting about it,it doesn't seem like it because you call this way bad and people are stupid too practice this method.That is not accepting,that is hating." and this is more gibberish.
