Kosher Outlaws

In Britain, Kosher and Halal slaughtering has been exempt from a government requirement to stun the animals first. Now, Farm Animal Welfare Council (FAWC), a government agency, is advising the government to end the exemptions. The "Humanists" and "Compassion in World Farming" organizations [don't you love those names] are backing the FAWC. The Humanists movement spokesman Roy Saich had this to say:

"There is no reason why they should not simply abstain from eating meat altogether if they do not wish to eat the same meat as the rest of us."
