Trouble reading again from the typical judgmental ugly American on the board. Still waiting for an apology from your hideous post in the vaccine thread. I won't hold my breathe.

While some of that may be true, I think most of it was a bunch of crap too.. The reason they gave for the public display of the butchering was crap. Totally uncalled for. I had no idea they killed baby cubs.. I hate that I know all this now :(

I still think it's all a bunch of crap.. There was a zoo that offered to take him.. It was a senseless butcher of a totally healthy Giraffe.

I think that anyone that agrees with what they did/do are a minority.

Well done, Mexico City.

Now about those bullfights...

This was in Spain, but the Bull won this round.

"Three matadors were gruesomely injured by bulls and taken away by ambulances during a major bullfight in Madrid on May 20. As a result of the incidents, the San Isidro festival was suspended for the first time in 35 years, reports the BBC."

It is more than a physical march, you can speak out through social media, wear the tshirts, etc. :)
