Why is something as barbaric as bullfighting still allowed to go on ??
 

Do people still not see this as animal cruelty, or am i missing something ???

Story in our newspaper today saying how this bullfighter was in a serious condition in hospital after having this encounter with a bull.

The newspaper fails to mention, the spears and dagger in the bulls back, the reason why the bull would attack the matador, and that if they weren't torturing the bull in the first place, it would never have happened.

Personally, i hope the guy does die. And every other bullfighter out there who thinks this is acceptable as a "sport". :2 cents:

A quick Google search brings up some more disgusting pics.

We should do this to the people who think it's "sport"

And then see if they agree!! :321GFY

it's tradition... let it ride... i love watching cock fighting (not in the gay way, although that's kind of cool too)... some sabong with razor blades on their legs is a great way to pass the weekend away...

I concur.

I'll even go one further and say that any sport involving non-consenting creatures should be banned.

While the abuse in bullfighting is obvious, horse / dog / camel racing, polo etc. can all fuck up an animal.

No, I'm not a tree hugger, I just think human beings suck.

Fuck tradition!!

It's a disgrace and should be illegal.

Looks like a faggot standing there.

carpet bombing middle eastern cities is far more civilized

It is amazingly barbaric but I thought that was the attraction. Why else go to soemthing like that? Give it another 20 years and it will be gone. Not exactly a growing sport.

You're a fucking certified idiot.

Move along...

You're in Scotland, not Spain.

Worry about your own fucking laws.

:eek7:eek2:eek7:eek2


:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I am totally against anything which involves animal cruelty... Those who need that to "pass the week-end" are simply barbarians...

Bull fighting is a disgrace. Tell me how its a sport? The odds are stacked heavily against the bull considering the Matador has spears and a sword. The bull must go through a lot of pain before it actually dies. No animal should have to suffer like that.

Oh, the irony!

If you eat meat you need to shut your hypocritical haggis-filled Scottish cock socket.

Go fuck yourself you fucking idiot !!

I hope a bull rapes your ass one day... :321GFY

This is a HUGE sport in some Latina countries and you would be amazed how how BRAVE and MANLY they think these guys are.

If the man wanted me to think he was something special then toss out the spears that Bleeds them to death and hand the fucker a bowie Knife. Then Im impressed. Until then that is only proving that the GUY WHO INVENTED the spear/sword to bleed them is the one with the skills.

are you saying that to slaughter cattle they do this to them????


That is the FUNNIEST FUCKING THING!!

These faggots are anything but brave...

Totally agree.

It's a cultural thing, I've been in Spain and you can't just ban it.

It's always subjective.

Say what's more surprising to me is how can be something as barbaric as news on TV be allowed - you can watch the gore and killings and everything even before 10pm, no one asks the victim families if they are ok to expose their son who just died all over the planet.

That's much worse than someone who WILLINGLY risks his health or life as a toreador. And the bulls are killed for meat anyway.

i always cheer when the bull wins

Ah Yes

Americans telling the rest of the world how immoral they are and how they need to be just like us.

After all it has worked so well in the past.

I have a solution for ya dress the gitmo detainees in bull costumes and send em in the ring...El Toro De Goro Indeed

Now do somethng productive with your lives will ya?

The bulls are tortured for hours before finally dying...

There's your first mistake.

I'll not even bother with the rest...

i doesnt matter scot, american, brit, iranian I assume you are bright enough to get the fucking picture

If not I will spell it out for you while you eat your burger....mind your own fucking business

The world thanks you

Yep its cruel.. but for 3+ years these bulls live like kings, the best food, free range in massive fields. Rather than kept in veal crates and never see the sun, unable to move so as not to toughen the meat, force fed for 3 months then killed.

Bulls... you used to be able to feed them barley that kept their meat from being too tough, but now barleys so expensive.. its veal crates or the bullring.

And even if the world went veggie tomorrow.. you still need cows for the dairy produce, cows have to get pregnant.. 1/2 of them will be bulls.


And sometime they get their own back.

What an excellent picture!I am not a fan of this 'sport' either but are so many wrong things in this world you just don't know in what order they should be banned

At least they get a few good years...

Beats being castrated at 2 months of age, pumped full of hormones and slaughtered for meat. :2 cents:

Rather than calling Bullfights a sport, it is rather considered a ritual in those countries where it takes place. Some people like it some people dont, in Spain I dont think it is likely to go away any time soon, it is part ot their culture and tradition. Just as a sidenote, bulls stay on the bullring an average of 20 minutes.

A bull's life. It sucks! Fucking Spaniards.

This is an age old debate. Visit some of the anti Bull fighting sites and forums if you really want to get into it.

The argument "tradition" just doesn't make any sense at all.

So some father tries to tell his young kid "ok, i want you to watch this. Some dude's gonna torture a bull, and we're gonna clap and enjoy it, and watch the bull bleed to death slowly"

"umm dad, i don't wanna see that shit"

"you have to son. it's tradition"

"erm, ok"


Tradition only remains because the information gets passed on to future generations. Using that as an excuse to make something ok is just wrong.

What if it's tradition in your country to get ass raped off a donkey ??

Bullfights are the only reason these bulls exist, no one is going to raise bulls on the outdoors unless they have a use.

If I had to choose between being the cow you ate at lunch and a bullfighting bull I wouldn't hesitate for a second (leave in the open fields, fuck alot of cows to create the next generation of bulls and go out with a bang :))

did i ask if you were against animal cruelty? are you against exploitation of women? now STFU and sit down, newb.

The day will come for you... dont you doubt it

You're a fucking idiot.. you have NO fucking clue what's going on around you..
A ego-centered sad human being who'll burn up in hell

Ofcourse you can ban it.. people think that thins which are not ok, are ok because they've been going on for hundreds of years..

That a modern country like Spain supports this insane cruelty to animals makes'em no fucking better than any muslim country stoning their women to death for being raped

I have $10 mill. with your name on it right here..
You come to me and I spoil you with great food and hookers for 3 full years.. you'll live like a FUUUUUCKING king..

And then.. I torture you to death, slow and painfully!!

No worries, it will be all worth it!

Peoples missing ability to put themselves in a animals position is just scary.. the whole "I am human, I can do with animals as I please" attitude shows how little these people have developed as human beings..
