It's OK, they're wiping out ISIS... with food poisoning...

It's meat, just killed in a different way. People shouldn't put themselves on a high horse over halal meat if they are meat eaters since both involve murdering the animal.

I would eat non-halal and halal. Absolutely does not bother me.

Shes a clown, but imo she was making good points about the barbaric way the animals are killed.

You'll find poor preparation in many slaughterhouses all over the world. I used to know a knacker man. Thats a bloke who kills horses when they are injured. He had some stories that I dont want to think about never mind share with you. This kind of practice is not confined to just Halal slaughter.

Yes I did, there was a thread a few months ago it was debated extensively on there.

I don't fundamentally agree with it. It's not the same as non-halal meat, as the animal's neck and artery is cut meaning it dies a slow and painful, as opposed to when animals are killed for non-halal meat, it is done with a bullet in the head which kills them instantly.

I don't think this cruelty is ok in the name of religion.

[TomC]

I might just add Britain First is the most ridiculous organization.

I disagree with halal and non halal meat because I'M A ****ING VEGETARIAN. /carole

I don't necessarily agree with Halal, because I think saying prayers and sprinkling fairy dust or whatever before you kill something (or at any other time, for that matter) is beyond daft, however, the cruelty argument falls totally flat.

Watch a few of those abatoir videos Vegans love to spam all over facebook... there's no such thing as cruelty-free meat I'm afraid and anyone who wouldn't eat Halal meat because of the cruelty aspect... needs to go vegan and stop eating meat completely. If they believe that their non-Halal supermarket meat is "killed nicely", they are straight up deluding themselves.

Personally I always end up feeling hungry when I watch these Vegan propaganda videos though. Nom nom bacon .

There actually isn't a quicker or less cruel way to kill an animal than to properly sever the carotid artery. Messy, but quick and effective - they'll pass out in seconds and be dead not long after. The only real problem with it is when people don't know what they're doing and cut the windpipe instead of the artery... which will cause the animal to essentially drown in it's own blood.

I don't agree with halal meat because animals are not stunned before they have their throats slit. The animal then gasps and splutters, choking on its own blood until its last breath. I believe all animals must be slaughtered humanely.

Also a lot of supermarkets and restaurants have been selling halal meat to us (for their own benefit to save money) without labelling it as such.

I saw an interesting thing this morning about beer, worcester sauce and a few other random items that contain meat and fish products. Bloody hard to be a vegetarian these days.

I disagree with halal because I think the process is inhumane

[Jake.]

really don't care, I don't eat it/don't judge people who do

[LukeB]

Meats meat at the end of the day. I enjoy it so i dont have a issue with it

[TomC]

Just because you enjoy it either way doesn't mean you can't have an issue with cruel death

[Tom4784]

It's hypocritical to eat meat and then have a problem with how the animal was killed. Dead's dead. Something has been killed so you can eat, how it was killed is pointless.

As someone who eats meat I can't complain about how the animal is executed.

I don't see why one method is considered cruel but the other isn't. Either way, the animal is still being killed for food regardless if it's shot in the head or having its throat slit.

[TomC]

Because of the pain and suffering. There's clearly a difference. These animals are bred to die, but they shouldn't need to suffer in the process.
