I dont like olives but I dont ask for them not to be served.

Always getting their way? A little racist, yes.
I notice the thing that Reece posted also mentions Jews... so on behalf of my own religion I want to say that it is one of our laws that we don't cause animals to suffer and Kosher slaughtering is as fast an painless as possible with more and more people using the stun method first. I can't pretend to know much about Halal slaughter... However... people inevitably complain about Kosher and Halal slaughtering while being perfectly happy to eat other more conventionally slaughtered meat without having any clear idea what atrocious places abattoirs are. How do you think non-Halal and Kosher meat is slaughtered? Do you think they sing them to sleep? What's more, all kinds of animals are abused and mistreated all over this country on a daily basis. I think their care and welfare would be a more suitable cause for concern.
