Urgent campaign against proposed bullfights, using calves, in Carcassonne, France. If these games are oganised bulls and calves will be tortured in a very sadistic way using long spears that cut like a razor, harpoons and swords. Not to mention the poor horses that get deeply wounded by the horns of the bulls.
| Number | Date | Prefix | Name | Why do you want to stop the bullfighting taken place in Carcassonne? |

| 4,340 | 10:54 am PDT, Mar 24 | taylor sonita | Why is it that man wants to kill animals. Instinct. We are no better than most cats. You know when you're fighting and the opponent runs and you feel that small rush for a second, that is your instinct telling you to chase. But we have "supressed" these because we see it as wrong to kill humans. So we kill animals which don't have any way to defend themselves from us. Or we do it for the thrills, but either way we should learn to repress this to. | |

| 4,312 | 10:21 am PDT, Jul 11 | Laurel Watson | ullfighting is institutionalized animal abuse. Abusing animals for entertainment is nothing more than savagery and does nothing but degrade animals and humans. It has not placed among civilized people. It should be outlawed. The rest of the world should boycott all cities involved in bullfighting. | |
| 4,311 | 9:16 pm PDT, Jul 5 | Mr. | AUSTIN KENDALL | BECAUSE THEY TORTURE INNOCENT ANIMALS JUST TO "AMUSE" PEOPLE. IT'S LIKE SAYING "SCREW YOU" TO GOD! ANIMALS HAVE FEELINGS TO. THEY HAVE EMOTIONS. THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE RESPECTED! |

torturing animals for amusement
The beautiful Ville of Carcassonne, south of France will have for the first time in its history a bullfight with calves on the 1st of September.
We are all aware what the consequences will be, after one, others will come, as there's a lot of money involved in this business, so we must prevent this.
We shoudn't forget the poor horses that are used during the bullfights. Common in these games is that the horses are deeply wounded by the horns of the bulls in their bellies, loosing their intestines and consequentely die.
Your signatures will be sent to the mayor of Carcassonne and the tourist board and hopefully we can stop these games from taking place! Time is short though!
