Personally, I have mixed feelings. I'm real big on cruelty to animals - it's one of the few things in life I have zero tolerance for.
But part of me understands the tradition of this in Spain. . . The meat from the bulls are donated to food banks, adn none goes to waste. . . But still, I don't know. . . Just something about seeing the bull bleed out helplessly, while getting stuck in the spine and neck, while the crowd cheers on seems so cruel.
And I realize that this is not even close to as bad as some of the **** that still goes on to humans in parts of Africa. Not exactly an important issue or anything, but I'm just thinking about running with the bulls this summer in Spain. . .
