# Exporting live animals is cruel
Just so they can have their throats slit.

If muslims and jews need their meat to be halaal or kosher (by slitting the animals' throats) let them do it in their own countries ffs.

# Is killing an animal by cutting its throat any worse than killing it some other way?

# Yes
Most pig places don't stun anymore with electricity, they lower a batch of animals on a platform into a CO2 pit so they asphyxiate. Much better!

# I believe it's a slower death
TBH I haven't eaten meat for 23 years and find the idea abhorrent but I tend not to evangelise about it nor point fingers at those who do.

# I wish that were true.
My whipsnapping days be over. What with me being in the fourth decade of my life.

# Indeed
but then shipping live animals around the country is pretty shitty too. My local slaughterhouse has a queue of pig trucks stuffed to the gills waiting outside the gate for their turn to drop off.
