ouch!

They have those fucking bull fights here in Cancun every Wednesday afternoon....I love it when the bull gets a jab in...but the bull never ever wins, they always kill him...really sad

I was supposed to go run again in Pamplona this year but I have not been feeling well so I passed. I watched my first and last bull fight there. Sad, sad, sad.

Ouch!!! poor guy

is he trying to bite the guys nuts

No kidding, and by the time he goes in and actually "fights" the bull, it's exhausted, and drained from all the blood loss.

lol and how many of you had a steak or burger this week...

No kidding.. they stab the bull with spears before the fight even gets going, and wait until he loses a lot of blood.

I can't think of another "sport" that is so fucked up.

Shut up

blow me.

he deserves it

Damnnnnnn

hahaha. I like the part in 'A Day in Mexico' where they shocked the dude and the bull fucked him up.

There's a great VHS out there called "Bulls Revenge." Rent it if you see it.

pity...

Ouch, I bet that hurt.

that must be really heavy! i don't think i will be able to handle that!

Reprinted from "The Truth About Bullfighting":

Bulls, as all bovine creatures, are gentle community-oriented animals. Prior to entering the bullring, each bull is held in an isolation box -- a small structure with a tiny ventilation opening in the top. He is deprived of light, food, water and most importantly, the security of his herd. Mexican bullfights occur even during the hot summer months.

Throughout Latin America, it is common for animal torture such as bullfights, to be closely associated with the Church and many times used to celebrate religious holidays. At this Mexican bullfight, a mass is held prior to the event within the bullring itself.

Upon being released from the box, the bull enters the bullring. Here he is disoriented from the sudden light and the crowd noise.

Furthermore, when he enters the ring, the bull is already bleeding profusely. While still in the holding box, the bull is injured with a harpoon-tipped ribbon that has been jammed into his side (EDIT: Sometimes petroleum jelly is rubbed into their eyes or the bulls are sedated with drugs as well).

The bull is quickly joined by two men on horses. The mounted men begin to circle the confused bull and stab pointed lances into his back and his sides. The lance blade cutting the bull is at least 5 inches long.

Once the bull is severely wounded, the bullfighter and his team engage their wounded, weakened, tortured and confused victim. These men take turns chasing the bull and slamming banderillas into the bull.

These banderillas, or adorned barbed darts, hang onto the bull with razor sharp tips. By this time, the bull is in extreme pain, the blood is spraying, pouring, bubbling, and oozing out of every wound. Internal bleeding is evident by the blood pouring out of his mouth and nostrils. Also, uncontrollable urination and defecation is usual. He cannot defend himself and attempts to run away.

After at least twenty minutes of this, the matador takes advantage of this weakened state and approaches the bull from the front. Armed with a long sword, the matador strikes and jams the entire sword into the top of the bull's body. This is supposed to be a fatal strike through the heart.

Unfortunately, many times the sword goes through the lungs causing the bull's blood to come gushing out of his mouth and nostrils--drowning the creature in his own life fluids. Still standing, the bull attempts to run away with instinct driving him to survive. The "bullfighters" continue to chase him around the ring, surrounding him and continuing this merciless attack.

Finally, exhausted and badly hemorrhaging, the bull collapses to his knees mortally wounded...in complete submission...begging for mercy. The sword is then removed from his back.

He lies there, clinging to life. He can no longer run and now will suffer until death.

The matador finally approaches with a short knife. The knife pierces the back of the bull's neck and is dragged from side to side to cut the spinal cord. This paralyzes but does not kill the victim. The victim is conscious as trophies are cut from his body -- his ears, tail, and/or hooves. Sometimes the bull is even conscious as he is dragged to the back of the arena where further butchering begins.

Why is this horror allowed to happen? Blood bullfights are illegal in the states, yet is funded by the Americans. The bullrings are crowded with American tourists who want to experience some "local color." Also, the American company, Pepsi, is the biggest advertiser we saw at Mexican bullrings. Their banners and signs are strewn everywhere -- giving their silent approval of animal torture. Also, Pepsi has pouring rights at these arenas--blood money.

The fact is, the tortured bulls almost always lose. More horses are killed by the bulls than bullfighters.
