| 6,574 | 11:14 am PDT, Jul 8 | Jillian Blume | 10280 | United States | Bullfighting is cruel and degrading — both for the animal and especially for mankind. It supports a world where inflicting pain is a sport and killing is a reward. If we cannot feel any compassion for animals, how can we teach our children to respect the life of human beings? I understand the fact that it is a tradition, but it is time for the tradition to evolve. Keep the pageantry, end the cruelty! |

| 6,568 | 6:55 pm PDT, Jul 5 | Connie Urias | 80239 | United States | it breaks my heart that animals are treated this way. bullfighting is a sad excuse for the pathetic human race to feel suprerior, when animals should have the same rights. just because theyre considered "useless" it doesnt mean we should use them for food or entertainment. it really pisses me off that the bullfighters are proud of killing a defenseless animal, and say that theyre doing that for the animals own good...oh god whatever... |

| 6,559 | 6:40 am PDT, Jun 18 | julles freemantle | gu55tn | United Kingdom | bullfighting is the most cowardly of 'sport', the bulls are tormented, and have vaseline rubbed into their eyes before the bullfight, so they cannot see to defend themselves, so they are dissadvantaged from the start, otherwise the so-called bullfighters wouldnt win, so this pursuit is not only cruel in the extreme, but also very cowardly, and deceitful. |

Its absolutely disgusting, isnt there enough death in the world without killing innocent animals that have done no wrong and would be better used, killed in a humain way and fed to the starving millions!!!!!!!!!! not out mastered by a small dicked spanish idiot that only has the brains to have a job that involves sticking things in animals (are these people real!!!!)God only knows what else they stick in the bull before he actually gets into the arena. |
