But as many or so few? should

demonstrated more than 2,000 opponents of bullfighting in Madrid . Does the Aficion care? Certainly not!

The 28th March 2010 should be the start of a great campaign antitaurinos to ban bullfighting. For this they have called for a Grosskungebung in Madrid . And so that the demonstrators are not too few, they have the safe side, buses carted properly support from the Catalan region in the English capital. A lot of it should be, very many, as many as possible!

And since it is not surprising that the world of bullfighting a moment turned away from her Domingo de Ramos with the processions to take a look throw in the metropolis. Finally, we wanted to know, what could come to one. While the Taurinos wondering what number the vibrations at demonstrators to think, the organizers employed rather the question of the minimum participation by over anything set in motion can be. And then we read in the antitaurinisch set newspaper Público that specify the organizers of the participation of 25,000 people. To the estimated not to be contradicted in the same sheet then participating as "Miles de personas (thousands of people) without any actually become.

Yet the largest English daily newspaper, EL PAIS it looked after its own research a little different. Between 2,000 and 3,000 demonstrators armed with cardboard signs and should have gone to a lot of screaming Puerta del Sol . Loudly they shouted "Esperanza, te gusta la matanza" ("Esperanza, you like the slaughter"), in allusion to Esperanza Aguirre , the director of the Regional Government of Madrid , which was the first person of the political the life antitaurinos counterpoint offered and announced to declare the bull to the regional cultural heritage. The fact that the Aficion it dares her Aficion defend encounters with the animal rights activists at the highest indignation.

Two to three thousand demonstrators! What does this number? But as many or so few? Comparing these figures with the number of spectators of bullfights in Madrid the finding is clear. In the months of May and June alone there are in the plaza de toros of Madrid 36 bullfights. With a capacity of 24,000 spectators to come to the impressive number of over 850,000 sold entradas . Of course, not all days are well attended, but a number can surely agree. Because more than half a million, it will be so. Wahrscheinblich to 700.00 '0. And if you go this, one can safely say confronts somewhat larger heaps of antitaurinos , the demonstrators are at far below one percent. This is not enough yet somehow politically relevant.

"talk is not without reason, the organizers of 25,000 participants," tells me a friend, "because with that number they wanted the 24,000 spectators, such a corrida in an afternoon Las Ventas on track to meet. " That makes sense. But even such a goal seems rather to lie further distance, there are missing far more than 85 percent!

the numbers can turn and rotate as you want, you can compare or compile statistics, the opponents of bullfighting remains is the sad realization that it just was not enough. There were just so little! And the Aficion somehow remembers the year 1600, where William Shakespeare took the pen and wrote:

But who asks eigendlich what is up in some children's homes in the past?

Catalonia: If the shot back s get started!

They have reason to cheer. The champagne they could ever chill. For never were, the antitaurinos , its goal of a ban on bullfighting in Catalonia, as close as in those days. The abolición de las corridas de toros en Cataluña within reach. But it is really what the animal rights activists really want to achieve?

we remember. In 2007, dashing German, Austrian and British animal rights activists to Brussels and called for a " European ban on bull fighting! . Now that Catalonia is not Europe. And in fact, the Catalans do not even be Spaniards, who are indeed, as a part of Europe, even the Chairman. If, therefore, to a ban, can the antitaurinos boast a field to have convinced that 1.4 percent of citizens claimed the European Union.

to achieve their goal could be tension the animal rights activists against the Catalan cart. With political authority, can be achieved, perhaps a little more. Did they! But they were taught a different, for it was rather Catalan freedom to think as the abolition of the Tauromaquia . Animal rights activists also saw the resignation: ! It will not do against Spain, but animal welfare " said they did nearly two weeks in the newspaper EL PAIS .

your hope for a ban on bullfighting in Catalonia would be followed by the rest of Spain was disappointed. A possible domino effect is definitely absent. On the contrary, even the shot backfired, because Spain's regions have been at all shaken once awake. Until that time, they are not the antitaurinischen initiatives rather all to meet a lot of respect. They have not even acknowledged.

How could we then read the German Internet portal La Tauromaquia ? "I suspect that in Spain there is the view that the Pyrenees were high enough to prevent Brussels law 'drüberweg comes ..." . Whether Brussels or animal rights activists from abroad, they had not participated. But now they are starting to plague and faster than any antitaurino is right, go to the Taurinos defense artillery. Three regions Madrid, Murcia and Valencia offered within a few hours a clear counterpoint. Another region will be joined by Spain and, as already someone mentioned in a comment on this blog into an impregnable fortress of the Tauromaquia .

And while arguing in Catalonia and cheer the foreign animal welfare portals running on the Iberian peninsula, the new bullfighting season. With not much success. to see wherever the first corridas de toros were mostly a ¡No hay billetes! - sold out! Since the animal rights activists can now not really speak of a success. to achieve

From the futility of boycotts

their goal of a ban on bullfighting demand equal to several animal rights activists to boycott

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 10 December 1948, we read: "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; does this right the freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, through any media and without regard to impart information and ideas to receive and . distribute " This refers to the last part, " regardless of frontiers " animal welfare certainly his own interpretation. To reach its goal of a

European ban on bullfighting in more detail, seems to antitaurinos almost any means. Especially on Tuesday of this week we could take to the website of SOS Galgos a boycott English goods note. As an explanation it means "the country is in crisis, the health system is poor, the sick wait for months for an operation date for each" OLE "which is screaming, remains another patient without an operating room and many English families, the water is to the neck. " In other words, the boycott will ultimately help the patient. to believe this was an all up to you.

The organization tierdach.de calls to boycott English sponsors on. Here is the list is long (see bullfight in advertising ). Particular reference is made as to IBERIA , because it provided a torero El Juli advertise and the company Volkswagen, Cadillac , Renault, Daimler Chrysler , Easy Jet , Jim Beam and Lidl. Also books and tourist guides are in the field of fire, the report only suggested neutral on bullfighting.

The animal rights movement Flensburg targets the travel industry: boycott of travel agencies, tour operators, hotels and restaurants . Here one should also make the effort to inform the relevant institutions, why does not their services. The German organizations animal 2ooo and Initiative Anti-Corrida have on the Internet called for a general tourism boycott , as well as the Association speaks Pets & World a consistent boycott of the airlines and the tourism industry . is

In forums for animal rights discourse Spain consistently called for general boycott . This general boycott Spain found but also to other anti-bullfighting portals.

A year ago I was asked by a local anti-bullfighting organization even to a boycott a Picasso & Goya exhibition in Fuengirola because it was there to see exhibits with bullfighting motifs.

This list could certainly be continued still unabated. Souvenir shops, art objects, museums, theaters and opera houses, etc.. All was radically boycott. The recommendations of a boycott seems to be no limits. And what about that then? The meat of the toros after a corrida ? Consumption boycott too?

believe animal rights activists really convinced that we can achieve with these measures, only approximately boycott something? Let us reflect, the world of bulls does not live by tourism ( The big misconception: Bullfighting is for tourism ). Also adds a boycott of other economic establishments in this industry any financial damage. Honestly, whether suffered by an airline as IBERIA economic losses, the interest from the world of Tauromaquia really not. And big companies like Daimler , Volkswagen , Lidl and Co. are in sales losses certainly do not in the world of toros looking for culprits, or even suspect.

Of course it hurt! Eric Fischl

It was a moving moment, when the scientists Jorge Wagenberg a whole arsenal of "weapons" unpacked, leading to the death of toro bravo in plaza de toros . He raised as to transfer the estoque High death-blow to the sword with both hands and asked: "Does it hurt?" Passed Dramatic seconds. "Of course it hurt!" enthusiasm among the animal rights activists, peace in the Aficion . Pure sensationalism or polemics as it described the English newspaper EL PAÍS . He has not so far wrong. The fact that it hurts not even deny the aficionados itself and the degree of pain, the science has been arguing for ages.

In Catalonia, discussed the bullfight. Also the national Interest has become greater. Almost every day newspapers report daily of which even on different pages. Special attention was actually almost not on the statements of Taurinos , but much more on the verbal and emotional stories of the bullfighting opponents. Certainly there were relatively objective comments like that of the ethologists Jordi Casamitjana : "From an ecological and zoological position suffers from the bull ... and blame the corrida de toros." A clear statement.

But as the Basque philosopher Jesús Mosterín was speaking, was given a new dimension to the debate: "We get upset at the fact that in Africa the woman's clitoris is cut," adds and later added, "The mistreatment of the woman is also a tradition. " Both processes are crimes, criminal acts against humanity and against European Gerichtbarkeit. And precisely this level, the Aficion provided by animal rights activists. respond

politicians

But here the animal rights activists were probably the politicians at the national level too far. The opposition leader of the Partido Popular Mariano Rajoy took this matter yesterday with the English commercial broadcaster Telecinco position: "It is completely unacceptable, with the suffering of animals at a corrida de toros wife abuse or compare African traditions such as female circumcision. " The Catalans would be good advice but more to the current problems to focus, because after 600 000 Catalans are unemployed, and where there is relatively no matter what happened because with the toros . And if ever they think of a abolición de las corridas de toros en Cataluña rather to further job losses.

The President of the Comunidad de Madrid Esperanza Aguirre responded to the Catalan offensive. The Tauromaquia "is an art that is worth defending and belonged from time immemorial to the English and Mediterranean culture." To bullfighting now in the region Madrid should be protected by law in the course of the next , 15 months fiesta nacional declared a regional cultural heritage.

From France came voices. The socialist politician Christian Bourquin commented on the debate as a Catalan "an attack on freedom and respect for pluralism, as well as an attack on a minority."

If aficionados criminals?

In September 2008, in the German forum spain talk toreros described as a mass murderer. Even Hitler comparisons are drawn. Bullfighting fans are Nazis and pedophiles, terminally ill people. Desecration of a grave toreros is approved of, etc.

Hatred of the Aficion sometimes goes so far that we could read as a comment on SOS Galgos in October last year: "The animals life -. Taurinos the death "

who followed the debate is seen from a neutral point of view, that the world of antitaurinos is very concerned about the followers of the Tauromaquia to criminalize . Although the right to Tauromaquia in English Constitutionally enshrined, is the Pastimes of the animal rights activists not just that basic rights a matter of course agreed, no more, the whole world of toros is almost criminalized. labeled as criminals. Operators and managers are Mafia bosses who toreros contract killer and the audience gets the small-time crook who despised modern society. And here comes the question, do they have the animal rights in general a right to do? And how we feel as part of this taurine world? This probably makes us sad. More than that. Of course it hurts ... it hurts!
