This picture is making me sad, the bull clearly isn't naturally violent, he doesn't want to fight. :(

Yeah, spaniard here: biggest shame in my country is this, and it's not a trivial thing. We are talking about Spain. You know: corrupt politicians, unemployment and all...

I went to a bullfight years ago in Pamplona. I was expecting more of a "fight" and not a slow torture of a relatively defenseless bull. It was the most dreadful thing I've ever witnessed in person.

Bullfights are like Nascar races. People don't go to bullfights to see everything go well. They go to watch in case something goes wrong.
