Stop Govt Funding Bullfighting Torture Schools in FRANCE !!!
These signatures will be send to the International Movement against bullfights,The Ministry of Youth and Sports in France,And the Spanish Council of Ministers!!!
In Southern France there are 6 bullfighting schools approved by the Ministery of Youth and Sports.From 5-6 years old the children begin to attend these schools withtheir parents permission.
They begin to learn how to torture and kill animals.
It is difficult to imagine the carnage at these practise sessions due too the inexperience of the children.
Once again the authorities subsidise these" schools" with tax payers money.

Rejoneo,bullfights with horsemen
In this style of bullfighting instruments called rejones are used wich are stuck into the bulls by rejoneadores (horsemen).Like in other bullfights,they train in private on bulls,torturing them to practise their sadistic skills,before they appear in these performances.
The bull is forced into the bullring were he is confronted by these men.The bull is then stuck with many of their harpoons wich have a lenght of 5-7 cm .
The horses are changed several times as they become to frightened to use.Harpoons with a blade of 15 or 25 cm ("rejones") are also stuck into the bulls.The torture of the animals continues with the so called "Death rejon".This device has a blade of 65cm and is stuck in the back of the bull.It's common that in these kind of bullfights the horses are deeply wounded by the horns of the bulls in their bellies losing their intestines and consequentely die.
These bullfights,all kind of them,called tradition to the countries,should be stopped and forbidden by law,this is not tradition,this is simply plain animal torture !!!

Surely we have reached a stage of civilization where we are no longer entertained by the sadistic torture of animals!! Bullfighting (ie ritualised bull torture and slaughter) should be banned.

Bullfighting,although traditional, is appaling. The animals go through so much pain and suffering before they are killed. In this day and age we should not be allowing this to happen.

Would I visit a city that promotes bullfighting and using little children to perpetuate this hideous so called sport, NO WAY! For god's sake France and Spain please civilise yourselves and start valuing the life of the dear creatures who share this planet with us. What's wrong with the thousand of other sports available, not enough choice or not barbaric enough for you?? Enough is enough this is 2009, time to stop and make this an illegal sport. Stand up and be counted Spain and France. Cheers Mim

This is just so sick,bullfighting and all such horrendous torture inflicted on beautiful animals around the world in the name of tradition or any other is truly barbaric and should be banned from this world.To hear children as young as five are now being taught to treat animals in such a callous, sadistic way is horrifying to me.

Dear Sir/Madam It is distressing to hear about this cruel sport, with children being encouraged to participate. Surely only cowardly men would participate, armed with swords, against defenceless animals. It is sickening, and to think that children are involved is totally unacceptable to any decent, humane person. Latin countries must stop these barbaric practices. It would be wonderful to hear that your country starts to show some leadership and initiative towards more civilised sports that do not involve defenceless animals. Please do all you can to instead, encourage the love and respect for our fellow creatures on Earth, that they deserve. Surely Christianity does not encourage this torture? Would Jesus Christ have condoned bullfighting? Of course not. Thank you in advance for your help in this matter. It is of utmost importance.

I have never been able to understand the popularity of bullfighting. It is very cruel to the bull, who dies a slow and painful death. As a horse lover, it is impossible for me to see these wonderful creatures just doing what they are trained to do by man, and then killed or injured by the bull in the process. This is barbaric and should be outlawed!!! And now they want to teach CHILDREN to do this??? Horrific!!!!

Bullfighting is a cruel and barbaric sport that does not belong in a humane civilised society. To teach and promote this violent sadistic slaughter sport to children is simply abhorrent and immoral. Just because something is part of a culture or tradition, does not mean it is right or ethical. Please do the right and compassionate thing and ban bullfighting.

Bullfighting is an outdated, brutal and unaccceptable form of "entertainment". It is about time people sat up and realised that abuse of animals in any way is not right and will not be tolerated.
