Mm good idea, selling tickets to his bedside. They buy tickets to watch an innocent animal die in terrible pain, don't they ???

[jackthehat]

Not 'wishing death on a bullfighter' does not correspond with condoning the senseles torture, mutilation and death of an animal.

Or are you just reverting back to your Sunday-stirring threads?

??? I did mention earlier all recent posts being in crosswords.

I must have missed the posts condoning bullfighting.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes they do hereIam , but now you have a new sport to watch - torturing humans.

The fun never stops does it?

I am with Mamy here.

I abhor fox hunting, hare coursing, bull slaughtering ( cannot really call it fighting) veal production and the process of force feeding poultry for that posh foire grasse, whatever it is called.

[hereIam]

And the bull fighters are the 'sickos' actually!! Carry on mamyalynne, you will NEVER faze me ........

[hereIam]

I am with FM here.

Bull killers are sickos, give the bull a sword at least.

Not sure of the stats but I would put money on more bulls being killed than matadors. I shall therefore cheer each time a matador is killed.

[mikey4444]

hereiam....(17:07)....that is exactly what happens at bull fights....people do pay their money to see an innocent animal tortured to death.

If they wanted to see a man prance about in fancy clothes, they could attend the Ballet instead.

[FinnyMick]

Never seen a ballet where one of the dancers gets a sword plunged through his spine.

At least the bull had his fun before he was killed.Have you ever been in a Halal slaughter house without cctv?

[FinnyMick]

No. imagining is enough.

[mikey4444]

Ryzen....off topic....you either support bull fighting or you condemn it....which is it ?

[Mamyalynne]

Not here to faze anyone, offer my opinion is all.

Can't think of anything more repugnant than viewing torture and death, animal or human.

We're all different.

[Ryzen]

Mikey..to see individuals getting 'off' on this 'sport' leaves me worried...and believe me many of the workers in an un-monitored Halal slaughter house come a very close second.

I dislike most forms of bull-fighting intensely (there are some places where it is pure spectacle and the bull is unharmed, only the human is at risk) but I could not wish for anyone to die, even though this man was involved in barbarism (i.m.o.p.).

Mikey, //Ryzen....off topic//

....because it was another difficult question for you. No change there! You do make me laugh. :o)

Had anyone here ever actually been to a bullfight? I have. Spectacular, dramatic, colourful ..... the music and pageantry simply wonderful ... if only it wasn't so incredibly cruel - and it is - it really is. I cried my heart out. There can be no excuse for it ... whatsoever.

[naomi24]

Jourdain, on the assurance that the bull is unharmed, I also saw a bullfight in Portugal. True the Portuguese don't kill the bull - but make no mistake, it suffers.
