    I don't know what kind of low rent thing you've been watching but stabbing them half dead most certainly isn't par for the course for these things.

            That's done to piss off the bull, Sloww. He's not being stabbed 1/2 to death as you say.

              Pekka, guns do not particulary equal macho either.
              It enabled peopel to kill people from a distance, also known as from safety.

              And DD,does it piss off the bull? Highly likely.
              I'm not arguing with you anymore. Comprehension of facts would be nice. I tried going beyond words and gave you pictures and you still don't get it.

                Yes because you're simply wrong, this is done to make the bull aggressive.

                This isn't killing the bull or making it half dead. Is it cruel? Yeah, I think this is the cruel part. I hope they wouldn't do that, I wish the matador was alone and had to do everything by himself. But that doesnt' change the fact that the bull isnt' half dead or even seriously wounded in that.

                  Pekka, pardon me for saying, but you're an idiot.

                    I'm an idiot because the bulls aren't half dead or because it's for making the bull more aggressive, or I'm an idiot because I believe it takes courage to be a matador, and much much more courage than for example shooting some animal with a rifle?

                        The only thing I see odd is that you also root for the animal. It may as well be 2 people fighting to the death.

                          dashi, nah, I wouldn't think that's OK though. The bulls death is acceptable. If you have 2 humans fighting each other that one has to die, well, that's not acceptable as in the game is that a human _has_ to die. That would be a lot different.

                              All of the above, Pekka.
                              I don't when your views on manliness gained the focus that it's become, but I'm sorry it did.

                              They used to have bull fights on UHF channels, until around 1970 and they were discontinued.
                              Was PETA even around then? Maybe they should have been.
