Many if not all of us would be okay. Not to mention that many people have some experience of killing animals for food anyway.

I killed chickens and fishes, but truly, hearing cows cry when their calves are taken away is still heartbreaking. Also seeing the pig moms trying to move to be able to see her children once in her life is extremely uncomfortable.

My philosophy is that I only eat meat I would personally be able to kill, which means chicken, ducks and fishes (probably game too). I still avoid battery chicken though.

I think killing animals for food is really quite different from the industrialized animal farming that we have today.
