Bien fait!

I've just seen something in the news on tv: a flying bull in Mexico !

During a corrida, the 500 kgs bull forgot about the torero and managed to jump suddenly onto the terraces. Some aficionados got injured.

Payback wasn't a bitch but a bull ! The bull in question was named Pajarito which means "little bird" so it was meant to fly!

I hate corrida, cockfights, dogfights and any of those stupid bloody shows that make people get off on cruelty and animal's suffering. I don't care about traditions when animals are the victims of human perversity or human vanity.

BTW, a law has been voted AT LAST here, forbidding any importations of cat furs and dog furs from China. If only all the countries could do it...

Poor bull has been shot...

I'm with you all the way. I wish the US would do it; or if they have, it gets hidden in imports that aren't caught. Either way I know it still shows up.

The problem is that other European countries have not, and since there's a free movement of products between us (Shenzen agreements), that law is more symbolical than anything. We need a EU directive about those imports.

I hate this shit. I can't talk about it. I'm pretty militant when it comes to animal welfare. I dispise all animal fighting. I could hurt people that do that. I really think I could.

I know that's wrong, but I'm not one of those people who thinks the human race is naturally superior. In general, I think humans are the worst of the earth. There are individuals I like and individuals that are excellent, but humans in general are terrible, the lowest.

I'd better stop now before I start a war on your lj.
