You do know that christians slaughter cows, chickens, pigs, and turkey right? Where do you think your steak comes from? If they can’t slaughter these lambs, then whats to stop them from preventing a hunter from shooting and gutting a deer in his barn?
Or farmers and ranchers from selling oven ready steaks, chopped meat, and sausage.
Do you seriously mean to compare killing chickens and cows for food with CELEBRATORY SLAUGHTER in this case?
Think it’s the same, really?
Get a bunch of chickens and take them into your yard, invite your friends over to CELEBRATE killing them. Do some dancing and yodeling while you’re at it.
Think the authorities wouldn’t be at your door?
Or- buy a lamb. Take it to your place of worship and ‘sacrifice’ it. Think that would be allowed?
But Muslims...sure! We’re supposed to ‘understand’ their prehistoric ‘traditions’, right here in 2007 USA!
Don’t you see that the whole Islamic mindset is rooted in blood and slaughtering? They revel in it. They don’t want ‘symbolic’ sacrifice in modern times- it just isn’t the same without blood.
If we let them practice one barbaric custom it will set a precedent for every uncivilized ‘custom’ the Cult of Death calls holy. If they get away with animal abuse as a ‘cultural’ practice, our laws mean nothing.
And THAT is the point- our laws or Islamic laws.
