Bullfighter gored

You'll find this collection very blood thirsty, but it does tell the story, it's time this practice ended but I can't see that it will.

Those bulls do not deserve the treatment they get.

Do use the link, there are some very colourful and telling pictures there

I tried looking at the pictures, but had to stop when it looked like he was stabbing the bull.

I agree it needs to stop and I have no sympathy for the person who was gored. If he hadn't been there tormenting the bull, he never would have gotten hurt.

Thanks for your visit and comment, Ruth, I'm glad you share my opinion and those pictures are rather gruesome.

I still feel sorry about the goring, but cutting the bull's ears off, what for?

All too horrible to think about, really.

Incidentally I love your little icon.

katyzzz,
it is unquestionably the most damning indictment of any society, when its choice of family entertainment consists of horrific animal cruelty and slaughter.

It disgusts me beyond my powers to express it in the manner it deserves.

I have been told numerous bull fighting rings in the big cities have stopped bull fights, but too many of the country ones continue, along with the annual goat festival when they toss a live goat off the top of a church....

everyone should write to the King of Spain and his wife and demand they put an end to it.

cheers

Well said, Fog, the practice should be outlawed. It's so very, very cruel, and stupid, and any sort of sacrifice of live animals should be stopped. So primitive, you wonder what goes on in people's minds, if anything.
