    Swiss Government Rules Lobsters Must Be 'Stunned' .....

    ...before being boiled. Maybe they should first read them their rights.

    Do they have to be "Stunned"? Would it be okay if they were simply "Amazed"?

      I would think a lobster that was swimming peacefully in the ocean and found itself in Switzerland would be both stunned and amazed.

        The Swiss have also cracked down on illegal puppy farms and devices that discipline dogs when they bark, Reuters reported.
        It's OK to shock a lobster unconscious (or smash its brain) but no little zap or sound bleeps for an unruly dog. Who decides these things?
