Default Bull Fighting

Watching 60 Minutes right now. Please send PETA and e-mail and get them off our back. Can't believe they would not be all over this.

I never got this so called sport, the bull has zero chance and you know that going in. Reminds me of what Twain once said of man "Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it."

The bull-fighting fans in Spain and Mexico would
throw the PETA members protesting into the
ring to add a little flavor.

¿Te gustan los toros.
Aquí, vaya cumplir los toros.

No way they step foot near the event.

It would have been an interesting punishment for Michael Vick. Have him wear Falcon's red uniform and throw him in there.

OK, I'm sorry....but I would watch

PETA is a terrorist organization, they could give a **** about animals, it's only a smokescreen to fuel their real hatred of humans.

You probably wouldn't be able to single Mexicans out like that if the U.S. weren't a mostly Hindu nation itself.
