No sympathy at all. Wish the bulls would get a few more.

Why does a country in western European, which as we all know is the epicenter of human culture and progressiveness, allow this kind of crap to continue along with bull fighting?

I agree totally
bull fighting is horrible
and as for feeling bad that someone got killed while running with these bulls is just stupid
would I stick my hand in a den of rattlers and then get pissed because I got bit?
good grief

You mean the same Europe that our own highly educated liberals hold in such high regard and always point to as a role model for "how it should be done"?

Yes, I fully realize the hazards involved, but I'm not endangering anyone but myself by doing it.

I'm a private pilot (ever do a spin or 3G pullout?), have teen children, and do plenty of exciting things, not to mention my ability to use my brain. I don't have to hurt animals or endanger my life to prove anything. The only thing you prove by your attitude is that you have some growing up to do.

Oh...BTW...did you forget about the bull? Do you not consider the danger the bull is put in so that you can pretend to have big cojones?
