They need to start using Cape buffalo for this. They DO want to fight you. Problem is, they'd win.
Ardmhor
A healthy bull would kill a human as well. Problem is the bull isn't healthy. They even maim the bull before the fight

Saw a bullfight in Mexico in my teens. It was disgusting. I cheered when the matador got horned then left.

"Sequinned Cunt" is going in the ol insult jar
GodLikeButHumble
Great, an insult applicable to bullfighters, ballroom dancers and... figure skaters?
melancholyterminator
Technically would it be an insult if they literally had a sequinned cunt...
dancfontaine
what good is an insult if nobody knows what it means
PatrickDiomedes
I don't see how "Sequinned cunt" is gonna confuse someone. Seems pretty self-explanatory
dancfontaine
i've never heard the word in my life, must be british or something

Cunt ? Seriously ? Where ya from ? Im at work so cant google the origins of the word

Spain has always had a bit of a barbaric tradition of torturing animals. Bullfighting is one small part of it.
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Spain has always had a barbaric tradition of torturing everything. The accounts of what they did in the americas are utterly horrific.
MrPompaztic361
I wouldn't call the moors animals, but you're close.
Thankyouforthis

As a Spaniard, I hope that we will finish with this "tradition" soon. Young people doesn't like it, and we have many others good traditions
Bramda
The bull that lived in the field between me and my jr. high school certainly wanted to start some shit
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Some are just like that.
primusnominetandemnomine
I wouldn't be against bullfighting if it was one guy against one healthy, well fed bull, extra angry bull. But starving the poor thing, 1/
primusnominetandemnomine
and pitting it against 20 different dudes? That's just cowardly. It's not a fight if the bull usually doesn't even stand a chance.

Then again, a spaniard would probably lose to a chicken on a straight fight

singedrino
I read the comments and it's like every spanish is doing this. Can say that at least 90% of Spain doesn't like it. It's something from ->
singedrino
other time. And there just a few who really enjoy with that. I'm 35 and I don't like it, nor my father who is 60. But my grandfather ->

was a big fan. When he was young go to see bulls was cheaper (sometimes free) than go to football, so it is clear. Also Franco was trying ->

to give panen et circensis to the people who just survived a civil war. Somethings like bulls were used to entertain. It was way cheaper ->

to pay to three bullfighters than to created a football team and support it with everything it means. Bulls are not popular and they are ->

going to disappear sooner or later. Just let it fade off, because if ppl start to giving them attention they are gonna last longer.

ThrockmortonTheSkateboarder
Wrote a term paper on bullfighting in Spanish class in HS. My teacher didn't like it because I didn't portray it as a "glorious tradition".
melancholyterminator
Fair play to you
Sloppydrunkcatlady
Didn't like it and gave you a bad grade, or didn't like it but graded objectively? I had a college professor comment on one of my essays
thebigchonk
Most young Spanyards don't like bullfighting because it's quite a Francoist tradition now
Bramda
The teacher's bias should have no bearing on the grade, ideally.
cliffjumper83
professor told me i had to start a full semester research project over b/c the my data didn’t show positive correlation. We had 2 weeks left

ultradongle
I won't hate someone for their culture. When they bring that bias into a teaching setting outside that culture, fuck that.
Ardmhor
If culture is shitty you can hate it. Some cultures are morally superior to others. That's fine to say
abruns
Idk man some people have shitty cultures that do shitty things.
OneLeggedDog
I mean yeah, if that culture is harming people or treating animals like shit for no reason then it's fair game. Hate it up.
InternetLawyer
In a Spanish debate for class I was assigned defending bull fighting. I think it was the only time I hated receiving 100% on something

What next, bring back fight to the death Gladiators in Rome?
sharkwhistle29
I'd watch that.
philosoraptor1000
At least two humans can consent. The bulls cant. I'd argue that gladiatorial fights are more ethical than bull fighting.
ThatWeirdFriendEveryoneHas
Most of them were prisoners forced to fight, though. Consent isn't really consent when it's under that extreme of duress
SharkyMcSnarkface
Slaves aren’t human. Source : some neat Roman guy I totally just talked to
philosoraptor1000
Fair. So I guess I'd edit to say "free consenting gladiators" is better than bull fighting.
Ardmhor
Think he was meaning a modern version. Also weren't most of them slaves?
ThatWeirdFriendEveryoneHas
The modern version of... gladiators?
Aysling
Gladiators usually didn't fight to the death. It occasionally happened, but there were rules against it.
SwaghettiYologneseWithMemeballs
This would make sense since professional gladiators would have a pretty short career otherwise which would discourage sponsors.
sadstory
Might actually be more humane than the nfl. CTE is no joke.

I'd rather die, than live with a debilitating brain injury.
LitchLitch
Believe it or not, bullfighting is one of the big factors in the Catalan independence movement. The Catalans have tried to ban it.
DevilsArsehole
I think the way they've been treated by the Spanish govt is reprehensible but EU and UN don't say a fucking word.
SalmonPieBaron
Because it's not reprehensible, and they treated this with a lot of class considering what the Catalan govt did.
Dagordae
Seriously, can you imagine if one of the US states tried to break away with voter fraud? Last time ended poorly.
DevilsArsehole
Arresting an elected government for trying to implement the outcome of a democratic process which Spain interfered with is classy?
SalmonPieBaron
"democratic", goodone
DevilsArsehole
They basically said no self determination for you... Maybe they learned nothing from Basque separatists after all....
DefinitelyNotASwedishSpy
It wasn't official and Spain beforehand said they wouldn't recognize it. The referendum was illegal plain and simple
DefinitelyNotASwedishSpy
Whether or not it should've been illegal is a different question though
terryr
'Bulls don't want to fight you?' You've never lived on a farm. They will fuck you up at any opportunity.
melancholyterminator
Its a territorial thing,
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Depends on how they're treated. Some are pretty chill, even friendly.
PaulPurves
It's the other way. Bulls don't want YOU to fight it. Just lie down and get trampled, bro.
terryr
Horses don't want you to ride them either. Dogs don't want to look for drugs. Dolphins don't want to do tricks for fish.....
Daymancommeth
We breed brangus cattle and have 9 bulls. Those bulls are extremely friendly and will let you pet them like dogs.
BoogalooBadger
Varies. Although, I have met some bulls that want to fandango on my spine without any provocation.
Shoelebubba
Yeah, seconding this. Once they realize they outweigh you 10:1 + they'll horn you through, bullfighting or not.
Ardmhor
Do you purposely corner your bulls after maiming them? Don't compare a farm to this man. You know it's not the same
terryr
Most male farm animals are castrated. They don't want that either.

Sadly, this asshat survived this.

TheMajesticHarpyEagle
You know what else used to be traditional? Human sacrifice. Something being traditional means jack fucking shit. Adapt or die.
SonBro
Dude knew what he was getting into for his "traditional sport" of torturing animals to death. No remorse for this clown.
dancfontaine
How do you get "torturing" out of this? You want torture, go look at what they do to the cows you get your mom gets her McDouble from
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
You mean all the stabbing to goad it? The fact that they kill it slowly after exhausting it even before it enters the ring? That torture?
dancfontaine
you're the first person to raise points I wasn't aware of instead of just sounding preachy
dancfontaine
but still, source?
Dagordae
He chose to be a cunt and torture an animal for amusement. No different than if a dog fighter gets mauled by his dogs.
dancfontaine
Then fuck everyone who rides a horse am I right? Poor fucking horse getting rode all the time?
Zepravity
definitely not even similar but ok
dancfontaine
Okay, how about I ride you and see how you like it? You're anthropomorphizing the bull the same way I am the horse, see
Domi3guy
Maybe not deserved, but, I'm not upset if it's a side effect. Traditions aren't inherently "good", "wise" or sane.
dancfontaine
I'm not upset either because I'm largely an apathetic person. But the original commenter is a moron.

No the bull is just pissed

They stab the bull's testicles, prick it all over to anger it, starve it and drug it so it'll be extra angry. It's cowardly as fuck

Well it’s also all the things I said as well unfortunately. It’s why many are so ardently, and rightfully, against it

Took me far too long to realise that was the bull's horn!!

The fun question is: Did the horn come out the bottom or the front? Cause I can see his entire jaw getting ripped off from that.

Ardmhor
Majority of the time the bull would be the champion tbh. Make it a proper blood sport if you are gonna do it. The way they do it is cowardly
melancholyterminator
Always, ppl cheering on torture, and claiming it's "culture" is literally bullshit

Do you watch boxing or MMA. How about football. Why don't you go have a cheeseburger and think it over. Think that cow had a good life.
Dagordae
One teensy tiny little difference: Boxers and whatnot are willing participants. And are not supposed to die or even get seriously injured.
AliBarber
In boxing and mma, people train and agree to fight each other for money. The bull doesn't train, doesn't agree, and is killed at the end.
DevilsArsehole
Not comparible to torture tbh.
IUpvoteEveryNicholasCageGIF
A bull had no choice, it's just there to die, the fighter had a choice, if the MMA is sending people with no choices then start complaining.
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
In boxing and mma, or football, the people have a choice. You absolute fucking walnut.

Against it, ramping up the worldwide condemnation increases the stigma. You have hold outs, of course, but they are always around.
