Ritual slaughter is a form of slaughtering animals for the sake of religion and belief systems. It is mainly used for the Muslim and Jewish religions as they are prescribed to eat different types of meat such as Halal and Kosher foods. Both religions have really strict religious rules and have had to follows their sacred scriptures for hundreds of years. They are only allowed certain type of meat such as beef and chicken, but they are not allowed to eat any porcine species.

This is when the dog's skin is shaved and they are then burnt and slaughtered brutally. About 10 to 15 thousand dogs and cats lives are taken as the people want to indulge on their meat. Well what to do the people in china think about it? Some of them think that it's time the country moves on with the times and bring an end to this festival as it affects the right of an animal's. Although there are some people who consider about the life of an innocent animal there are a few hypocrites who feel that this festival who should be promoted worldwide.

Firstly I would like to point out that Ritual slaughter should be done away from the city as it might affect loads of people who are viewing these disgusting and terrible scenes. Try and do it in a quiet area if people feel there is any need to continue these killings. Another way which might make thing a little bit better is to try and make the killing a bit more peaceful for the animals. Instead of slaughtering them brutally, try and find way that won't keep the animals in such pain that they will be in grief throughout the whole process. Try and take care of them and be a bit lenient towards them and treat them with extreme care. Do not chain them and strangle them till the very last second. Let them enjoy their life and make the best use it until someone decides to unnecessarily kill them. Lastly we can let people that what they are doing is completely wrong even it is for the sake of religion as they can celebrate in a more cleaner and friendlier way. Festivals does not mean that you must take an animal's life. Festivals are a time when you can spend and cherish the time with your loved ones. Finally I would like to conclude this essay by saying that Ritual Slaughter should be banned immediately as it affects the rights of an animal and doesn’t give them any chance to live. These animals are sacred and precious. The more we

Pachirtat explains that there are laws put into place that prevent any outsiders to enter the slaughterhouse and to keep what is going on inside hidden from society. Throughout the book Pachirtat’s style of writing can make the biggest meat lover think twice before biting into their next hamburger, the main argument is not the cow. He states that “this book does not engage directly with arguments for animals rights, it is my deepest hope that its detailed account of industrialized killing will invite readers to seek a more thoughtful relationship with the nonhuman creatures.

In Fast Food Nation, the author uses multiple rhetorical strategies to achieve an overall tone and effect. One device, however, was utilized throughout the book. To achieve the tone of disapproval, pathos, the appeal to emotions, was strongly used in each part of the book. For example, the book states, “At times the animals are crowded so closely together it looks like a sea of cattle, a mooing, moving mass of brown and white fur that goes on for acres.” This appeals to the readers emotions because it discusses the cruel treatment of cows.
