I don't think people are ignorant because they enjoy cockfighting. People find pleasure doing various activities depending on their cultures--for example, read this article on Manny Pacman, http://msn.foxsports.com/boxing/story/5567476, he was the host of a cock fighting tournament. Bullfighting in the spanish culture; Beatle fighting in the Thai culture. Man i'm not going to list it all to you.Originally Posted by a4mrmarine
There is a certain type of people (Hulk Hogan & Pamela Anderson for example) that want to force what they believe on others. They try to take up a cause and make a difference in the world. But the world is not a place to be molded. It ain't going to work. Let people do what they want to do and keep your shit to yourself. Here is another article--http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockfighting. This will give you a history lesson on cock fighting.
You probably love animal and it's not in your belief to see animal in that situation. I understand how you feel and i respect your feelings toward animal fighting.
if you've ever eaten beef, slaughter one yourself by shooting it in the head with 22 rifle--watch as it slowly succumbs to death. If you've ever eatin turkey, go hunting for it and kill one yourself and look at how if flops and jump around before dropping dead. Fish--go fishing and skinned it alive while it flips and flop for mercy. Chicken--slice it on the throat and drain out the blood, it'll jump and try to standing straight before dropping dead. Pigs--high voltage electrocution then hang it by the foot while the slaughter sticks the knife deep to its throat and drain the blood. I have done all of the above--no hard feelings.
You, my friend, on the other hand has the luxury of buying your food pre-packaged. You have never seen anything like this before, have you? I'm not a philosopher to tell you how to the world should be, but you need to open your eyes. People find pleasure doing things that may not be acceptabe to you. You probably lived in New Orleans all your life. You live in a box.
As the spanish philosopher Ortega Gasset once wrote, kill and prepare yourself what you eat. I say not every day but atleast once in your lifetime. And maybe, just maybe you will see it ain't so bad that there is cockfighting, bull fighting, etc, in this world we live in. Open your eyes...
