@Xenta777@emd483 I’m so sorry to hear this, my heart hurts for you and your family. It shouldn’t be this way, I don’t like being helpless, I’m just so sorry. You’re wonderful people, I just don’t understand this mindset that it’s ok to do these horrible things to other human beings!!
Many countries have banned non-stunned halal slaughter, such as Belgium (regions), Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Denmark, Slovenia, Liechtenstein, Switzerland & Finland (in practice).
Science shows animals remain conscious during Halal slaughter for seconds to minutes, with EEG-verified brain activity & surges of stress hormones (cortisol, adrenaline), impacting welfare & meat quality.
For record, you don’t have to be vegetarian to care about animals or question harmful practices.
@TheStourbridge Happy New Year George and family, your kindness and daily supportive messages are inspirational!
I’ll be on my comfy couch with family (includes my beautiful cat!) watching a movie. Boring for some but peaceful for me. Stay well.
