Thanks for those comments Wildbilly. Far more useful than the Christian
Science Monitor article.

I read the comments attached to the cites you put in but I didn't go to any
as I'm sure I'd find them too distressing. Anyone who mistreats animals
needs a good whipping at the very least IMHO.

As a beef producer, I've been to both abattoirs and feedlots in this country
and been reasonably impressed with the handling of the stock and the killing
process. It's not ideal but given health regs and the need to protect human
health, I guess it's the best that can be done in the circs. Mind you, I'm
more impressed with most animals than humans so when I come to power, I'll
ditch the human health regs and make the rules all about the animals.

You got my vote for dictator ;O)
