Hardly anybody cares about eating Halal meat anyway unless you're an anti-Islamist.
What sort of logic this is? I don't want to eat Halal because that type of meat is produced after slaughtering the animals painfully. And how does not liking Halal meat going to make me an anti-Islamist?
Where do you get that idea? Animals are killed with a clean, extremely sharp blade to ensure they are killed instantly and painlessly
No animal is killed instantly or painlessly by having their throat slit or being bolt gunned prior to that. There are ways of doing it more 'cleanly' and minimising pain but no method of slaughter is painless.

Hahahaha. Typical anti-Muslim crap. There's a simple solution to your problem: Don't eat there. Restaurants or businesses can sell whatever they want. I'd love to know how your rights are being trampled on here? You have a right not to take your custom there and they have a right to serve halal meat.
I disagree with that. If 10% of the population has the right to have halal meat, then the remaining 90% of the population also has the right to have non-Halal meat. The problem is that the latter part is avoided or ignored.
100% correct!
Thank you for your kind and insightful post!

Then don't eat it. Nobody is forcing you to. You can't complain that restaurants are serving halal meat when it shouldn't even concern you as it's your choice and decision to go and eat there. And a bolt gun to the head before having your throat slit is still painful, but that's a different discussion. And it doesn't necessarily make you an anti-Islamist, but most people who complain about it like the guy who brought it up above just tend to have problems with Muslims or Islam and use anything they can to complain or criticise them.

I don't get your logic. They do have the right. They have the right to go and get it and not eat at Halal restaurants. Hardly anybody cares about eating Halal meat anyway unless you're an anti-Islamist.

The place where I live, only around 10% of the population is Muslim. Yet, most of the restaurants serve only Halal meat. I find this very irritating, that our rights are being trampled in favor of a vocal minority.

How exactly does a restaurant catering to certain people constitute a trampling of your rights? Businesses are free to cater to whatever demographic they wish. I'm sure you can find restaurants that cater to you and your ilk, and if not then hey, there's a great business idea for you. I'm sure many people in the middle east aren't too happy having the 'American dream' exported to them via the greatest arsenal of weaponry mankind has ever seen. The western world has murdered and denied the most basic human rights to countless people in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere and you're irritated that a few restaurants in your area choose to serve halal meat because it's good for their business? Gee, I wonder how those people who had their entire lives destroyed by the defenders of 'freedom and liberty' must feel compared to your major dilemma...
Who cares right? It's not like they're humans or anything, just savages living in the stone age, much like the aboriginals and blacks of yesteryear.
What do you propose doing in order to make bitcoin haram?
I am not. It is a short thread. You'll see who would want that change by scrolling back... up.
I read the thread. 5flags is arguing that bitcoin is halal:
It turns out that Bitcoin is more aligned with Islamic notions of money than fiat.
You are arguing that it shouldn't be halal (i.e. that it should be haram):
That is another thing about bitcoin not being halal compliant...
What changes do you want to make to make sure it is not halal? (and for what strange reason do you want this?)
Is it illegal for the restaurants to serve other meats? Or, is it legal and with their freedom, they choose not to?
Legality might not be an issue. Muslims will boycott the restaurant if it serves non-Halal meat. No restaurant owner want to lose a segment which is more than 10% of the population.

That is another thing about bitcoin not being halal compliant, nor christian laws compliant, nor kosher compliant.
By the sound of it, bitcoin is halal. You don't need to change it to make it so, it just is, like vegetables or bricks. What do you propose doing in order to specifically make bitcoin haram, and why bother?

“If women wish to eat these food items, a third party, preferably a male related to them such as their a father or husband, should cut the items into small pieces and serve,” the cleric supposedly dictated.
That story is fake.
It is considered to be one of the factors behind the possible secession of Scotland.
This is bollocks. If anything the Scots are more accepting of immigration and multiculturalism than the English, as well as being more left-wing. The nationalist party currently pushing for Scottish independence (SNP) prides itself on being different to the right-wing government in Westminster.

Not stating bitcoin is or is not halal or haram or kosher or pure... is the "changes" I want to make, i.e., zero changes at all.... But I understand your position. We need to remind some folks around here it is safe to use it as it is halal and sharia law compliant.

Makes perfect sense

Yes, agreed. The vote for independence has nothing to do with immigrants/multiculturalism. Scotland has a long and proud history of assimilating many different ethnic groups - as diverse as the Irish, the Italians , South East Asians, as well as the English (who on their own form 10% of the Scottish population).
There has been some problems (Catholics/Protestants for e.g.) - but this has nothing to do with the independence debate.
The SNP has nothing in common with the BNP, for example - other than the unfortunate similarity in name.
