The matador wasn't killed.

I think gloating over any violent death is unnecessary.

Maybe tell that to the many who gloat over the bloodthirsty death of the poor bulls. Matadors understand and accept the risks. Bulls don’t.

Hurrah!
Most blood sports have been banned in the UK but hunts continue to kill foxes for their entertainment and other disgustingly cruel ā€˜sports’ flourish out of sight. Hare coursing and dog fights are always done for betting. The police are not interested and the very rare prosecutions impose ludicrously small fines.

We were in Seville last week and were surprised to see posters for upcoming bullfights. I didn't think they still happened.

Why is this even considered a form of entertainment? Just horriblesad

Poor things. Goaded even before they enter the ring. Very nasty business. Bully for the Bull!

What good news šŸ‘

I believe they stab the bull before it goes into the ring just for starters ā˜¹ļø

Animal cruelty cannot be used as entertainment in my view.

PS the bull’s horn went up his rectum. I saw the photo of this today.
