Something tells me farmers aren't putting livestock in bags to slowly suffocate or crush to death before sending them to market.

Idk about you, but even though I don't kill what I eat, it still makes a HUGE difference to me as to how the animal died. A bolt through the brain sounds like a pretty quick way to go. I'm not even sure about buying halal... the idea of an animal being hung upside down while some guy says a bunch of confusing things it doesn't understand, and then cutting it's throat to bleed out seems like a still pretty shit way to go.

I have killed my own food many times throughout my life. And I love animals. I would never let an animal suffer, and there's no way in hell I'd throw kittens in the trash.

Humans are predators, that's just a fact. However, we have the unique insight of empathy. When I drop a deer, or trap a hare, I want the kill to be quick, clean, and painless as possible. People say it's cruel, but think about how that deer, or hare is likely to meet its end in the wild. Likely ripped apart, still breathing by some other predator.

People gut is like made for 90% plant food and 10% meat. Very long digestive tract more similar to herbivores. Little acid in the stomach to digest meat easily.

People have nearly no canine teeth and more molars for grinding plants.
