anyone here from espana?
I'm not from Spain. But I think its a barbaric and cruel "sport".
It goes back when there were no other entertainment like we have nowadays.
And people weren't that sensitive anyway.
So it's like Muslims nowadays. She is drape in black, veil covering her face and she is smoking lifting the veil for every puff. ?
So you must choose - are you staying back in times or moving on...
Naaah! People want both worlds and they having it. As sad/funny or plain wrong it sounds.
so there's nothing good about it?

I don't like football. They a bunch of pansies who spend most of the time on the ground crying about "injuries".
Why the sudden curiosity about bull fighting?

My 12th house sun relates. This is why I read up on SO many serial killers and live on CI channel.
But an animal killing someone is of no concern because that matador deserves it. what would you do with those..... hmm not sure what they called "spears"? anyway, having them pierce you and stuff. Its bloody cruel.

Maybe the matador deserves it maybe not,
but they have families and stuff too, that are suffering when they die, are they products of the environment? I mean someone is going to kill that bull and maybe eat it at some point anyways right?

News to me but apparently so. Maybe just over the Spanish-French border would be my guess.
Newspapers are claiming that he tripped on his cape but, from the video footage, he actually lost his footing. Please tell me if I'm wrong, but I saw no tripping nor his cape getting in the way.

ugg, poor guy! hmm i should do a search for bullfighting's greatest hits or something.

Bullfighting = super trash sport. But ya, tradition and the fabled passage to manhood by surviving the confrontation with a "beast"....
is it like low classed, only poor people with bad social manners like it, or are you just saying that because you disapprove (serious question, lol). I literally know nothing about it.

Can you explain to me the appeal and beauty of the matador and bullfight? I keep reading articles of matadors dying but I want to know what is attractive about this sport. It took me a bit to see the attractiveness of soccer, but I see it. Help me with bullfighting.Thanks
Same as boxing?

That makes sense. I think I need to research/readup on the skill and technique of it to understand it.

I agree.

You would equate the life of beef to a human beings??
Fair dos

As hypocritical as it sounds I do eat beef. But then we talking apples and oranges here. Food is one thing.
Hurting and torturing an animal for "fun" and "sport" is completely different, but maybe that's just me.
You want to tell me that animal feels no pain?
