just saw the clip on the bbc news of a bullfight in northern spain.
the bull jumped the fence into the crowd and proceeded to run up the steps tossing spectators in the air
Karma? |

You have to feel sorry for people in the audience. someone will be in for it not making sure the arena wasn't safe. |

"I have no sympathy for the people that got injured at that show, as far as I am concerned they deserve what they got."
i agree totally. the bull actually used the partition that the matadors hide behind as a kind of springboard to get in the crowd. that's my kind of bull!
sadly they killed it |

are you suggesting that meat eaters shouldn't be opposed to bull fighting.
I eat meat but i would draw the line at tormenting,injuring and ultimately killing an animal in the name of spectator sport |

Well im not into people in the crowd getting hurt.but the matador is fair game,cos basically the bulls are doped up to make them more passive.so its not really a fair fight is it.an the way the bull is tormented for hours before its finally killed is just plain wrong. |

Serves 'em right!
"What goes around comes around"....."Boot on the other foot" etc etc.
There's a picture in a recent Bizarre magazine,a bulls horn has gone into the bottom of the Matadors jaw/throat and come out of his mouth 
Very gruesome but as Johnny Lydon says on the butter add "It's his career choice!", the bull has no choice!

No I don't applaud the death or injury of humans but I make no apologies for giving the bull a hand.

Do all bulls in the ring end up being killed?
Ive never seen what actually happens,only seen clips of the bull getting its own back on the matador
I had heard that some parts of Spain were banning it |

A bullfight typically lasts about 20 minutes, and the bull is stabbed numerous times before the fatal blow delivered with a sword thrust between its shoulder blades.
The fighting bulls are specially bred and traditionally a corrida involves six bulls and three matadors, each of whom tackles two bulls.
In Portugal and the south of France the bull is not killed in the ring. |

In my opinion cruelty to any animal is barbaric and turns my stomach...the sick fuckers that get enjoyment from torturing poor defenceless animals want stringing up and slowly have bits of their anatomy cut off !!!..see how they like it.. |

My old man lived in Spain in the early '50's.
He reckoned they always ended uo on the slab,even if they won.
In that case they said the bull became "too wise",so they're in a no win situation which is why they have our sympathy.

The majority of bull fights the bull is too valuable to be killed. Its is a show for tourists. Are you sure that the bulls are all killed? |

The majority of bull fights the bull is too valuable to be killed. Its is a show for tourists. Are you sure that the bulls are all killed? "
from worsleyschool.net
The first bull is engaged by the first bullfighter's assistants, with large purple capes, to see how it moves in the bullring.
(The bull instinctively goes for the cloth because it is a large, moving target, not because of its colour; bulls are colour-blind, and charge just as readily at the inside of the cape, which is a different colour).
The judge signals the entry of two picadores (lancers on horseback), one of whom is to pierce the bull's neck in a limited way. The aim is to plunge their lances into the bull's neck, thus weakening its strong neck muscles.
The first of three banderilleros (usually older bullfighters who form part of the matador's team) individually run towards the bull, making him charge. Their job is to insert two banderillas (decorated wooden sticks with spiked ends) over the horns into the bull's neck muscle.
The matador engages the bull with his cape in a series of passes. When the bull is weak and unable to charge much longer, he pulls out a curved sword, with which he kills the bull by inserting the sword between the cervical vertebra and into the bull's heart. He might dedicate the bull to an individual or the audience.
If he performs well and the bull is killed cleanly, the audience will wave white handkerchiefs, encouraging the judge to award an ear, or two ears and tail

These days,as opposed to the early 50's,I'd bet that - if they survive without receiving too many serious injuries - they'd be used for stud.
Our view is that if your going to eat an animal,kill it as quickly and humanely as possible and not use its demise as twisted "entertainment".

the sooner they ban bullfighting the better
and i sure hope they dont bring back fox hunting in the UK
thats far far worse
the poor terrified fox chased for miles and miles to end up cornered and ripped to pieces by dogs while still alive
and even worse still the huntsman will feed the fox cubs so that there is a good supply ........ how sick

How can you call it "bull fighting" there is no fight in the Bull only fear, it's horns are cut just before it enters the ring thus rendering it unable to fight, all that it is doing is using its strenth to move these sick bastards, sorry ahem sportsmen out of it's path trying to escape the inevitable |

I eat meat, but thats doesnt mean I agree with the brutal killing of an animal for sport!!!
As for no sympathy for the spectators, if there were no spectators there would be no bull fights so they are as much to blame as the matadors. |

Just checked it out apparently, on "very rare" occasions, if the Matador thinks the bull performed well,he can petition for the bull to be spared.
In which case it spends the rest of its life at stud.
As was said above though,thats on "very rare" occasions.
