More and more people are fighting to put an end on this barbaric show, but it's a very difficult battle, because it's an old tradition in this country and second, there are many people living on this industry, mainly wealthy families who raise specific bulls for this purpose... So, the 'roman circus' will go on as long as there are people paying to see an animal being tortured surrounded by very colourful folklore...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15783877262954668959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-75161187001580513.post-68289536823519541942009-04-24T12:31:00.000+01:002009-04-24T12:31:00.000+01:00cela ressemble beaucoup à une eglise orthodoxe
