Where was this, in The Land of Denial? Unless this is a small family farming operation, this isn't done anywhere because it's not "efficient" enough. The emphasis isn't in whether the animals die instantly or painlessly, because those operations and the people who run them could really care less if or how much the animals suffer. So please, don't try to cover this over to take the shock and sting out of the truth - you can't.
Excuse me - do you think I made up how they killed animals? Why would I do this?
Anyway, it was in 1990 in the UK and it was very important that they died instantly, otherwise they distressed the others coming in behind them. Any hold up slowed the killing line down. If they panicked and tried to climb the bars they could also bruise / hurt themselves. All bruised meat was automatically condemned and the farmer wasn't paid for it. This was to ensure the farmers didn't kick them or punch them, though they did use cattle prods to move them along.
If you want the details... once the animal dropped dead they wrapped chains around their back feet and hauled them up onto an overhead rail. Then they cut off their heads and feet, before they reappeared on the 'floor' where they were skinned and their stomachs cut open.
We also did kosher meat in the Republic of Ireland where they prayed, slit its throat and let it bleed to death.
Admittedly, this was in 1990 and these abbatoirs are both closed. I haven't investigated how they do it now. Although I will admit, I'm not a great meat eater now.
Funny how you were quick to attack when you were still blind to the year this occurred. Basically your point was that you always think you're right? Because you clearly weren't, yet you still think you were.
Thank you for being condescending and arrogant. We all enjoy people like you trying to put everyone down by being a closed minded 'know it all'.
Is it normal that I killed a deer with a .22 pistol?

I used to work in an abbatoir and that's how they killed the cattle - one shot in the top of the head, so they die instantly.

And a domestic cow is one Hell of a lot bigger than a whitetail.

That was my point. Thank you for confirming it.

I'm going to parboil you for ten minutes and then fry you in butter with some basil.
