El Toro de la Vega and social consciousness

Protest against an unimaginable savagery as the Bull speared of Tordesillas, seems to cause in society and its leaders the same disturbance that occurs when you throw a stone into a pond. The revulsion has aroused a life as ephemeral waves are generated and in the end, the images of that crime was put away and forgotten in the background of a bloated minds to the suffering of animals.

And it seems we can not do more. Any other action would serve to catalog larger as aggressive but had not the slightest hint of force used against others. But to them they are allowed to use violence. Can torture and kill with impunity before a bull announcing and celebrating afterwards. Our demands, always peaceful and almost always sterile, must be licensed and the hours allowed in the streets and out of such taxation means committing a crime. In view of what is happening, a more serious crime to pass through an animal with spears. In fact the latter is not. The Act protects the killing and who hinders complaint.

The concentration of Tordesillas, the manifesto signed by hundreds of representatives of art and culture, the articles in the media, statements by certain politicians, the expressions of revulsion arrivals from other countries ... nothing This has been enough to stop a nasty and bloody tradition. Banana has died after a terrible agony and the Lancers of Trustees of the Toro de la Vega, are already thinking about the next edition and in the game that will give the next victim.

What does it take? - Gentlemen, you dígannoslo politicians - what the hell does it take to ban forever a bloody spectacle that exalts the suffering of another living being? A European directive?, "A referendum that dare not call? Or maybe public managers with less fear and more decency? In any case, what is clear is that you are responsible and therefore complicit in a brutal act open to children and adults.

I know that my words, like images recorded clandestinely in Tordesillas and where we saw the unfortunate bull was killed - I repeat: killed - they will not be worth anything and that this issue deserves your attention. But one thing is certain: I, like many others, I'll be shouting to the deaf, but you - and that is more serious - are harboring a criminal law. History will judge us by utopian but never to have their hands stained with blood. Look at you own, can you say that?
