Anyone who promotes cruelty by going along to these events is just as bad IMO. If people didn't go and watch, these horrible people would not have any need to do this. A lot of times, it's done in poorer countries where they make money from tourism. Wealthy western nations have absolutely no excuse to be promoting and encouraging this kind of cruelty. Shame on the scum taking part and the people watching.


Louisa.

Where in the world to you get the impression that I think it's okay to set light to an animals horns, or any other part?


That is the only ridiculous question on this thread.


I've never been and never intend to go to one of these events, but it is.Not ridiculous to ask you what you think all these people deserve, being as you "Hope they get" it.

Otta,


You said to me 'what, everyone there?' implying that it is OK to be there taking part in such a thing.


And 'what do they deserve?' implying that they didn't deserve anything.


I actually hope that the whole building goes up in flames and the only survivor is the bull.


If I misunderstood you, I apologise.


Seeing any animal cruelty doesn't make me laugh. It just p*sses me off.

It's not really for you to tell me what I was or wasn't implying. I would argue that some in that video are more guilty than others.


And I made no judgement at all as to whether they deserved anything or not, I was just intrigued what you thought they deserved.


But

Is an absolutely ridiculous response.


So if you go to a bull fight you deserve to burn to death? That is what you are effectively saying.


You should join ISIS, that's the sort of treatment they dish out to people that disagree with them.

ISIS? Oh dear.


You don't like the fact that I called your post ridiculous, so do you want to argue about it for the rest of the day?


Let's just agree to disagree shall we? Before I say something I'll regret.


If a person was being burnt alive, they would know how the bull feels.

Assuming that this was a bullfight - I would agree that it's barbaric, cruel and tasteless. But to say that the spectators deserve to die is just plain moronic.

    • I am genuinely curious… what is this obsession with keeping children active with things to do after school. From what I know, most  CV kids to rugby or football of a weekend but do they actually need activities during the week after school? What about going home, relaxing before homework and I don’t know, reading a book, drawing, Lego, constructing a car/plane.. even making some cookies…
    • The BBC is one of the finest, if not the finest, broadcasters in the world.  They have been admired by many across the world for their journalism.  There have been numerous arrests since their recent expose on convenience shops that cover ups for criminals - money laundering, contraband,  illegal workers and the like. By no means perfect and some of what they have done in the modern world is questionable - the website often comes across as tabloid or sensationalist, as do some of their documentaries, and at times it is full of low grade game shows, fly on the wall etc which bring the punters and money, including overseas, in but is not quality TV.  In their desperation for 'balance' they've given too much air time and credibility to some more extreme views, which contributed to Brexit and some of the rise in right wing parties.  I wish they'd say 'the convicted criminal' every time they talk about Yaxley Lenon. The programme was clumsy, why it didn't go through proper clearance including the lawyers, I don't know.  But it created zero stir at the time. Zero.  And had no impact on the election, so Trump has no case.  I hope they don't cave in like many of the US corporations and media.  Oh and well done to South Park using the small p*nis defence in ridiculing him. What I expect is as the Beeb is pretty centrist in it;s reporting in riles some of those who thrive on the toxic populism we have seen since Trump mark 1 and Brexit.  How sad.
    • I understand from Pao that they are taking a short break but will be re-opening on Tuesday 25th November and also that there will be a sign in the window tomorrow, by way of confirmation. Meanwhile, greatly  missed!
