Come again with that?

Okay, I admit that I read a lot of news. I follow interesting headlines and sometimes as my son sez, "they just write themselves". That is the deal with this one. I followed a headline link to ,this site. The headline "Store wants to shock chickens to death for customers " sez it all or at least it should. But half way down the article you see this quote:"Every morning, the chickens are given a fatal electric shock, de-feathered, cleaned, cut, and put on the shelves. Trujillo says no live chickens remain in the back for more than five hours. Followed by this one:"There is no butchering or slaughtering whatsoever," said Trujillo. "It's a sophisticated state-of-the-art technology."
Now if you are a chicken, be assured that there is not going to be any "butchering or slaughtering" taking place. You will only experience a shock, be de-feathered, cleaned (this means gutted) and cut up into little pieces. So don't worry!

It really got the locals cackling and might have even ruffled some feathers, eh? Personally, I don't think the store owner has anything to crow about.
