OK, no jokes. I went to a bullfight years ago. It was nauseating. An arena full of people on the edge of their seats, wanting literal blood. They mocked one bull because it had spots like a cow; they laughed at it because it wasn’t worth of being killed slowly and methodically for their enjoyment. I feel bad that

He put it on the table. It was him or the animal. That’s the competition.

Well... “deserved” is subjective, but he certainly earned his death, by angering a deadly animal, and then stabbing it with swords.

He didn’t deserve to die because he disagreed with me or anyone else. He actually died because he tried to torture a large, strong animal. Do you disagree?

Yes, that is a “matter of degree,” in the same sense that murdering your spouse and killing an enemy soldier across the battlefield is also a “matter of degree.”

Next you’re going to see Jay Sekulow attempt to insist that when Trump was referring to a “witch hunt” it had nothing to do with the special counsel’s activities and was actually in response to the constant accusations of night-dancing and crop-sabotage leveled at Trump by Goody Pritchard.

The conceit of bullfighting is that death is on the table. Look on it this way: This guy validated his sport.

So what your saying is that we can cheer for the bull to die, but the second that the bull gets a shot to fight back you cant cheer anymore? He killed animals for entertainment. That is something that a person who is qualified as “good” wouldnt do. The people arent joking about the tragic death, because the only

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

A very good friend of mine passed away yesterday from cancer. He was a kind, hilarious man and a great father of three young children.

I feel for his family, and his death was a tragedy.

Mess with the bull, you get the horns, and so on.

He was good, friendly, affable, generous man. With a family. A small daughter. Who tortured and killed animals to entertain a mob.

What? Nobody on the internet made him climb into a circle and try to kill a fucking pissed off bull. If you want to grieve for his family, maybe he should have had them in mind when he decided try to slowly kill dangerous animals for a living. He died doing something dangerous and barbaric in a silly costume- that is

I think you have to defend on a thing on its own merits. Invoking cultural relativism means you also have to accept things like genital mutilation, sharia law, etc.

So does that mean the bull won? Like, does he get to go home to his wife and kids after? Seems like he should.

I love the many, many layers of stupidity in that tweet, ranging from the obvious “that’s not even the fucking title, you dipshit” part that Erin pointed out to “no one either in real life or in The Crucible was burned at the stake in Salem” to “the people being accused of witchcraft are not exactly presented as

‘Baffling’ is the word, alright. I mean, when these guys hear the phrase ‘duck hunting’ do they think the ducks are coming after them?

Their inability to figure out the “Witch hunt/trial” metaphor is baffling. I’m starting to feel like I was the only one who was forced to read The Crucible three different times before I could get my fucking diploma.
