I'm a Bulls Fan

I don't mean the Chicago Bulls. I mean real bulls. I'm a fan of any bull that gets into a stadium with a man in a flouncy shirt. Hemingway called bullfighting art, but so what? He was a womanizing drunk. Bullfighting is archaic and I believe the only true justice is when a bull turns on the matador and kicks the living shit out of him.

Over the weekend a matador in Spain was stabbed in the chin and throat by his bull. There is footage of him gasping for air and staggering to walk. Perhaps this will engender debate about whether this "sport" could be outlawed. I understand its cultural but hell, so was owning slaves at one point. Maybe if the next matador gets gored in the groin, that'll do it....
