I can't be the only one who feels only pity for the bull and thinks the bullfighter got what he deserved...

Well I wouldn't wish what happened to him on anyone! :shock:

..but bullfighting is barbaric as far as I am concerned and if you are going to torment a poor dumb animal to death you deserve anything you get!

^^^ +1

This will just be seen as part of the romantic tradition of the "fight", the power struggle between man and beast shite that they use to justify this torture of bulls.

You're absolutely right there. In fact, they will say "See, sometimes the bull wins..."

Oh yes ... obviously a willing participant and worthy rival in the contest by virtue of the fact that it is acting so provocatively. :roll:

That's gonna leave a mark.

A well-deserved mark, I'd say, for someone who makes his living torturing bulls.

My friend had something similar happen. He was at his (now ex) girlfriend's 21st and got really drunk and ended up wearing the face off his girlfriend's friend while she was in the toilet. She came back and started screaming at him. Her father and brother then came up to him so he legged it. He ran around the back of the pub, through the car park, with the father and brother chasing him and went to scale a spike fence. s he was getting over it the father pulled him back by the leg and he got a spike right through the bottom of his chin and up into his mouth. The father was yanking and pulling at him and he was trying to scream.

My only sympathy is with the bull. Even when they win, they still loose.

Good for the bull.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

They killed the bull immediately after the bastards.
Also I just noticed that if you click on the news story you can see a cool video of it :D
