Gina I will never vacation in a country that supports this ridiculous past time. I hear all the time that this sport is embedded in Spanish, Mexican heritage...there was a time that being fed to the lions and slavery were also inherently part of a culture...time to evolve people 12/8/2009

Alfred Zerafa Bullfighting is degrading the Spanish People. This European country should be ashamed of such brutality and cowardice. Is this the way that matadors demonstrate their manhood by torturing an innocent defenseless animal who does not stand a chance of surviving. In my opinion the whole European Union should be ashamed of such barbarity and civilized European Citizens should boycott such savagery. 12/28/2007

Jim Green "People" who attend and watch bullfights are brainless, stupid sub-amoeba and the bullfighters are stupid, coward, mongel, loser pussies - if they feel the need to fight, why not leave out the innocent animals and fight me and then let's see who lives and who dies......Jim Green in Tyler, Texas 1/24/2007

RickyC Actually bullfighting is very humane! You people do not know anything about bullfighting. The bulls are treated like kings all their lives before they are killed, and once they do kill them it's quick and then they take the bull to the butcher, to sell as meat.

You people should take up another hobby that isn't against bullfighting. You should go to this website and see how they treat livestock in the "Sweet Ol' US":

xxcottoncandyxx123 Bull fighting might be tradition but it is cruelty to animals. Yeah you might be having fun but how do you think the Bull feels? Maybe you should be that Bull one day and find out what it is like. No one likes Bull fighting except YOU! I think Bull fighting should be banned in every country. 4/5/2005
emily I think bull fighting should STOP! It is harsh to the bull who has not done anything 3/16/2005
Kiran Singh I will ador if you don't torture the bull as much because it just hurts me to see the bull in pain. I will appreciate if you just give the bull a herb to calm the bull a little and don't stab it ,just torture it a little and use the bull for meat. 1/26/2005
