No, but I'd know it was coming.
This discussion is ironic, because for most of history the
kosher practice was more humane than the norm. I can't imagine
that being led into a slaughterhouse is that easy on the animal
involved either--for some reason this is being left out of the
discussion. I'm just guessing, but I would bet that the average
kosher butcher induces less overall trauma when you count the time
leading up to the actual killing as well.
