[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 15800605, member: 6727"] It hasn't, of course, been proven beyond doubt that lobsters feel pain when boiled. But apparently just the possibility is enough for the world to start laying down the law. First Switzerland, then...... I have boiled dozens of lobsters in my lifetime, and only once did the lobster ever move when dropped into the boiling water. That tells me, at least, that it is unlikely they feel pain. But not proven. So how is the Swiss government going to ensure people don't boil them without stunning them first? :rolleyes: I can understand monitoring restaurants, but private citizens? Good luck with that. I heard a rumor that there is pending legislation in CA on outlawing the piercing of worms when fishing. They have to be secured with thread to the hook. Non-compliance would result in a felony arrest and possible 10+ years in prison. Illegal immigrants are exempted. :p [/QUOTE]
