Bullfights are senseless acts of violence against innocent animals.


Bullfights are senseless acts of violence against innocent animals.
The Issue
Bullfights originated in Spain around 711 A.D.
It is a tradition that takes place in Spain, Portugal, parts of Southern France, some Latin American Countries, and in a few other places around the world.
People gather at the Plaza de Toros to watch 3 Toreros fight 2 bulls each. There are rules, and guidelines, but essentially the goal is to kill the bull. The Toreros, also known as Matadors stab the bulls with banderillas which cause blood loss, and excruciating pain.
The bulls are put in this scenario fighting for their lives, disoriented, and scared while people watch the bloodbath.
The ordeal lasts between an hour and a half, to two and a half hours.
Finally, the Matador using his sword plunges it between the bull’s shoulders killing it instantly by puncturing the bull’s heart.
What did the bull do to deserve such death?
Nothing justifies using innocent animals, and killing them for entertainment.
Please help me get this senseless practice banned once and for all!
Thousands of bulls have died at the Plaza de Toros around the world.
Hear their cry for help.
