Stop Bullfighting
Enviado por el día 19 de Abril de 2004 a las 15:00
Spanish Blood Fiestas revolve around the torture and death of Animals:
Since the death of Franco in 1975 there have been many changes and developments in Spain. This once seemingly isolated country, the last bastion of Europe against the massive and turbulent continent of Africa, has hurtled into the European mainstream.
Spaniards are in the forefront of European development in the sciences and arts, and Spanish cities are showcases of some of Europe's most progressive architecture. In short, Spain has arrived.
There is however a strange and frightening dichotomy. In the midst of the 'Brave New World' there is a continuance, a regression and an expansion of a culture of cruelty to animals that is barbarous and medieval. FAACE has worked, since 1987, to study and expose the Blood Fiestas and bullfighting in Spain.
Many thousands of these horrific Blood Fiestas take place in villages throughout Spain each year.
The vast majority of Blood Fiestas use cattle as their victims. Bulls, cows and calves from the bullfighting herds are tortured and killed.
Blood Fiestas with cattle are classified as bullfighting.
Bullfighting and Blood Fiestas are promoted and regulated under the Spanish National Bullfighting Law.
After cattle, chickens are the next most used creatures in Blood Fiestas a few other animals are also used such as pigs, geese, ducks, donkeys, squirrels, rabbits, pigeons etc.
Some of the now notorious Spanish fiestas involving animal cruelty first exposed and brought to prominence by FAACE are:
The crushed donkeys of the Pero Palo fiestas, Villanueva de la Vera (Blackie).
Goat paraded in streets, before being thrown from the church tower in Manganeses de la Polvorosa.
The chickens hung from a line and hand decapitated by horsemen in Nalda.
The pigeons and squirrels in clay pots stoned in Robledo de Chavela.
The live chickens hung from a line hacked to pieces by blindfolded young girls with blunted swords in Tordesillas.
The chickens buried to their necks and decapitated by blindfolded villagers in Aduna.
The speared bulls, the fire bulls.
The drowned bulls, the bulls castrated alive for fun, and the darted bulls of Coria.
