Controversial - Should the bullfights stop in Spain?

My answer is short.... No.

It doesn't mean I don't love animals and definitely doesn't make me a monster. And you might wonder why.

To start with let me tell you that I don't like bullfights, I went to one years ago, and never again. I do like the bull runnings in Pamplona though.

I consider bullfights to be a tradition. A lot of people like them and enjoy them. It's happened for years so why stop them now? Not to forget that those bulls have been bred with a unique purpose, to participate in a bullfight. There is a whole industry behind it.

A bullfight is a fight between a bull and a bullfighter. The bullfighter knows the risks they are running when they put themselves in front of the bull so if they get killed, they did it doing what they loved.

Taking freedom from people and telling them what they should enjoy is what comes to mind when someone wants to stop a tradition like bullfighting. Who is anyone to tell us what is wrong? Who is anyone to forbid something? When I hear people discuss what is right and wrong with a tradition, I see someone is trying to limit my freedom of speech and my freedom to choose for myself what I should enjoy.

So if you are reading this and you think that I am wrong, I hope that at least you respect my opinion, the same way I respect yours.
