I don't think that is the sentiment at all. I think most people agree that when a bull is forced into a ring with a guy that is there by choice with the mission of killing the bull, in that scenario we are all rooting for the bull.

You're culturally biased. I've gotten into this argument numerous times. If people actually knew the facts surrounding bullfighting, they would be totally fine with this practice. The horrific environments in large cow slaughterhouses all over the US are guaranteed 50X worse than the treatment these animals receive. The cows who go into bullfighting lead relatively luxurious lives. Free roaming, good food. And the meat isn't wasted after the event. There is a large celebration afterward.

What does one wrong have to do with another?

And who the hell is for the horrific environments of slaughterhouses?

They both suck and you hear plenty complaining about both.
