    Maybe to end the drama on halal, maybe we should all be vegetarian.

    Then, not sure what the debate is. It is simply a method of slaughtering and prepareing animal meat for consumtion.

    It shouldn't be a threat to your religious practices at all.

    Care to post the URL for this article? I could not find much online, except for this.

    "Harman Singh Kapoor, an Indian-origin restaurateur, has announced the closure of his restaurant Rangrez in London after 16 years, alleging repeated disturbances, online harassment and .attacks by Pakistanis. as key reasons behind the decision. Kapoor said rising operational costs and what he described as a lack of adequate support from the Metropolitan Police also contributed to the move. In 2023, he had claimed the restaurant was targeted following videos he posted criticising the Khalistan movement and mocking supporters of Amritpal Singh."

    Sounds more like this has more to do with economics and the age old feud between India and Pakistan than religious freedom..
