Bullfighting 2

Thanks "100falcons" for your comment on my Bullfighting blog. Very interesting since you have come at the topic from a different perspective.
John Julius Norwich wrote a letter to The Times argueing the case for bullfighting: he said that if he were to have the choice of being a fighting bull and one brought up to be slaughtered he'd prefer to be the former. Because they have a wonderful life, they are treated well, live the sort of life that their nature desires and in that 5 year or so life have only ten minutes of maltreatment and that at the very end after they have done what they do best - fight; the others are sometimes intensely farmed and die dreadful deaths after being transported in trucks..... and so on.
Good case.
