Stop the Great Bull Run!

The Issue

Bull runs are inherently inhumane and there is potential for both animals and humans to be killed or injured during such events. While they may be a tradition in Spain (a fading one), in America bull runs are merely a crass attempt to profit from animal abuse. These events have been met with protest wherever they've been held in America and this particular installment was scheduled to take place in Lake Elsinore until the City Manager decided not to sign off on the necessary permits, citing safety concerns. Let's respectfully request that the Riverside County Supervisors deny this event any of the required permits or permissions.
