      Why would @jontester shoot a cow? And what does that have to do with the Second Amendment? Very strange... https://twitter.com/chrismeagher/status/1049792679477989376 …

      You do not shoot a cow or hog to butcher it.

      But you’re not doing it on an industrial scale like Tester supposedly was.

      1st day of Animal Science Lab at TAMU, we had to go to the campus abattoir and watch several different species of livestock be killed and butchered. A captive bolt was used to kill them, and knives were used to butcher them. Kill ≠ butcher. Industrial abattoirs don’t use guns.

      Agreed that kill != butcher. I do both and they're separate steps. We all agree that captive bolt stunners are used in industry ; the question is "are guns ever used?" and, yes, that's what most small farmers use.

          OK, I guess I was confused. I know that small farmers use them - as would I if I were a small farmer. A couple of the users above sounded like they were conflating killing with butchering, and industrial killing with gun use.

          I've skipped 90% of this thread; for all I know those incorrect assertions were made by someone. Just clarifying what I know, bc I've been tagged in to it all. :P
