[trt]

I feel sorry for his family, but its about time this cruel one-sided fight is banned, although it wasn't one-sided today!

Whilst fox hunting has been banned in this country, if the law was ever overturned, they would be out there in their thousands tearing an unfortunate animal to pieces without a second thought.

[ reminds me of the skool boy q: get change of 1/6 and one coin is not a sixpence - what is the change ?
Answer: shillen and a sixpence. The coin that is not a sixpence is the shilling.]

No sympathy whatsoever, it's the risk they take torturing bulls. The poor bull would still die also and so will many more. And they call this 'sport'! Sport is Andy Murray at Wimbledon and crowds cheering Wales, not this horror !!

There are more links to be found with regard to the C.A.P. being typically fraudently used to subsidise bullfighting by the EU. If you had taken the time to look for yourself this link has no mention of Boris.

I feel sorry for the whole scenario. It should certainly be stopped due to the cruelty, those things they stick in the bull's shoulder must hurt. The bull has no weapons so why should the human? Perhaps if the matador could avoid being gored for a certain amount of time without using weapons, I would be happier. Both contestants go on to live a long life (at least the bull will).

I do not like anyone being killed, even if they deserve it.
