Bull destroys another Torero (GRAPHIC CONTENT)

Lord Spencer wrote:The "sport" obviously outlived its cultural significance. It used to be the only road for peasants in Spain to gain recognition in a hugely aristocratic society. It is a dieing tradition that should be abandoned as our society evolves.

However, the total lack of empathy towards a fellow human is unwarranted. What did anyone of you ever do to stop the "sport", if you really feel strongly about it write letters to the organizations supporting the "sport" instead of simply sympathizing with the Bull. Not doing so makes your comments hypocritical as you think this "sport" should be stopped but you do nothing to help stop it. Write letters and emails and help the effort.

@KMD, slaughtering civilians was part of Aztec culture, but that does not make it right. You have a huge number of cultural traditions that died because there is no place for them in an evolving society.

Also, we can't live without a good number of chemicals that are only available in meat. So evolving into a vegan state is not happening.

This is the circle of life, but Bullfighting and sport hunting are not part of that circle. Doing these things for "fun" or "testing your balls" is an arcane tradition. No longer do Lions pose a threat to the man with the rifle.

Neither does a boxing match makes it right, but people watch it and top boxers earn millions!
Yes, traditions die, but some live on, some are practiced inside a smaller circle and some new are born, there are a lot of wrong things happening.
Sometimes you see movies about the future, i think even in star wars, and they put people in arenas to fight against beasts so to some extent it shows peoples beast natures.
I just view bull fighting as something from the Gladiator Arena but with a spanish accent to it. And the fact that it lived to this point already makes it worth something. You don't want to just stop it in 1 day what has been going on for centuries, because it will unbalance the process of it slowly fading away! While people enjoy it and believe in it, let it stand, i don't see a problem with it. But i'm sure it will go away eventually, because its still in the circle! Perhaps not the circle of life since its not essential, but life in the sense that it is everything that makes us who we are!

So neither do people need extreme such as sky diving, but they still do it even with a high risk!
As for slaughtering animals we are still predators!
