This topic/conversation is a week or so off but I just remembered to look up the facts.
A certain redheaded “animal lover” drunkly claimed that bull riding was animal cruelty. Making statements like, “look at the bulls eyes, he’s so sad” and “they tie a rope around thier balls to make them buck.” Although I had valid question about why these thoughts had been thought, I know the best thing to do is not agree with a drunk person, but rather agree with them and make the situation seem worse than it is just to upset that person more.
Now to review some things.
Do I agree with bull riding and do I think it’s cruel. Strapping my left hand, extremely tight to the back of a naturally wild animal doesn’t sound like a barrel of laughs. Although it does sound like entertainment. I’m sure there are some establishments that don’t tend to the bulls with the greatest care to hopefully increase the pocket depths of others. I assume the events on TV, those probably treat the bulls like kings.
How the hell can you tell if a bull is sad? Do bulls get sad? Do they understand the concept of being sad? If I was in a metal cage with a guy strapped to my back, I wouldn’t be sad. I’d be nervous, a little confused and most likely flamingly gay.
The major argumentative point was, the tying of the bulls balls Tightly to supposedly make them buck. Now, I don’t have my balls tied on a daily basis but, I’d believe that having my balls tied would decrease my urge and wanting to kick my legs as I spin in circles. Also, I’m no animal doctor but, the “second rope” seems to be tie around the stomach, in front of the legs. The testicles then, I believe, are located “at the back of the plane”. If that confuses you then let me put it this way. I don’t have to adjust myself to a more comfortable position during the process of putting a belt on.
Try wrapping a rubber band around your cat or dogs foot. Most likely the animal will find it annoying are try to remove said item. Since animals don’t have opposable thumbs, kicking is a close second process of removing items off their body.
If there is any evidence of otherwise, send me a photo. Photo’s are worth 1000 words but a 1000 word response about hearsay is worthless.
