Michelito Lagravere, an 11-year-old matador, has angered animal rights activists by killing six young bulls in Merida, Mexico as an attempt to break a Guinness world record. Michelito’s father, Michael, is himself a famous French bullfighter.
Way to stand in the way of a child’s goals, Animal Rights Activists.
Especially a child wielding a sword.
What are your views on bullfighting: Proud tradition in Spain and Latin America? Cruel, senseless act of violence? Or… both?

I actually watched some bullfighing while i was in mexico just last week, It was one of the most awesome things i’ve ever seen, the movements of the matadors, the way the control the bulls. One of the matadors got on his knees right infront of the bull, and the bull just stood there. But at the same time it’s sad because of they way the bulls are treated before they are taken to the ring and of course in the end the bulls are killd. so for me I guess a little bit of both.
I’ve got a lot of pictures if you wanna see them
The process by which they maim the bull is pretty fuckin gruesome.
I’m with Laroncha. I’ve seen bullfights in Mexico as well. It’s a tradition that I respect, yet it’s sad. The best part though is that the meat from the bull is used to feed the less fortunate.
I was a matador for halloween this year.
Am I the only one rooting for the bull?
It’s animal cruelty. Period. I saw a photo in which he takes the prized possession–the sliced off ear–and posed with it. Sick little fu**. I spent some of my childhood in Spain: tradition is no excuse for the dehumanizing torture and brutality towards another living being (Just look at this).
Does anyone else feel like those sfx are from the devil?
