While that does explain some things, they are still inconsiderate
assholes who take things to such an extreme. If the consumers were
tested, I imagine they wouldn't be able to detect any different buzz
from a meal of humanely slaughtered beef and one that was tortured.
If "aras" want to do something to help, they should arrange such a
test and find out. If it turns out people really can't detect any difference,
then there's no need to torture the animals any more. Kosher slaughter
doesn't have to be cruel or even upset the animals:

Reactions to the throat cut

The variable of reactions to the incision must be separated from the variable of
the time required for the animal to become completely insensible. Recordings of
EEG or evoked potentials measure the time required for the animal to lose
consciousness. They are not measures of pain. Careful observations of the
animal's behavioural reactions to the cut are one of the best ways to determine
if cutting the throat without prior stunning is painful. The time required for the
animals to become unconscious will be discussed later.

Blood on the equipment did not appear to upset the cattle. They voluntarily
entered the box when the rear gate was opened. Some cattle licked the blood.

In all three restraint systems, the animals had little or no reaction to the throat cut.
There was a slight flinch when the blade first touched the throat. This flinch was
much less vigorous than an animal's reaction to an eartag punch. There was no
further reaction as the cut proceeded. Both carotids were severed in all animals.
Some animals in the modified ASPCA pen were held so loosely by the head holder
and rear pusher gate that they could have easily pulled away from the knife.
