Food for thought:
If you are worried about the animals being tortured during shechita, think about what the goyim do to their meat! We make sure that the knife is sharp enough so it cuts easier ect while they might hack it a few times (sorry for being graphic).
Furthermore, one of the “most humane butchers” in America is the shechita house in St. Louis…
