I could't care less how farm animals are treated I just want to see an intense discussion about weather animals have feelings here

I wonder when they would start feeling sorry for plants as well

so you're saying that living things only deserve consideration if you know how that animal lived (like keeping a dog as a pet or looking at a photo of a slaugther house) and not if they are just sold packaged and ready to cook?

The animals feel no pain really. Cows I know for sure. They are "slaughtered" with some huge number of volts of electricity and are dead within less than a second. One of my friends is in the cows business

here the animals just had thier troats slit with a knife

There is an slaughterhouse around half a mile from where i am sitting right now. There were a few protests there a few years ago. Nothing too big.



The normal way for slaughtering meat is to deliver a huge shock to the animal to stun it, then you kill it. When it has it's throat slit it is usually being made for the Jewish and Muslim community in a specialist slaughterhouse that deals in Kosher/Halal goods as the Torah and Koran deem that the animal must be killed in one move then be drained of blood. Recently, animal rights activists have released quite grizley footage of supposedly "torturous" Kosher slaughterhouses.

Actuaily it is tso the meat can be sold to the Muslim majority here to maximise profit, I may not follow Islam but since the majority in Malaysia does it makes sense to slaugther animals in a way that can be sold to the majority
