The Running of the Nudes! Are you going?

Whether I agree with it or not, the running of the bulls has been a proud tradition to these people for hundreds of years and to propose replacing the bulls with naked idiots is an insult to both the Spaniards and the bulls.

This is nothing more than an opportunity for peta to try and get their name in the news again. I wonder if any of their membership shakes their heads when they see something as idiotic as this, or if they are all so brain washed that it makes a load of sense to them?

You talk about ignorance. Do you have any idea of the abuse these bulls are sometimes put through? I've seen footage where they have been set on fire and shot with arrows at this event. Maybe you should make sure you know what you're talking about before you start spouting crap.

Everyone always uses tradition as a crux. We're not sacrificing virgins though.

Nope.JM

What are trying to say? If you read my post I did not say that I supported the running of the bulls. I am also aware of what goes on there during that event. However, that doesn't change my mind of PETA nor my opinion of their approach to this event. Maybe before you accuse someone of "not knowing what they are talking about before they start spouting crap" you should read the post that you are responding to and make an intelligent response.

Agreed. Especially since the person didn't even research about the history of the Running of the Nudes, where last year, animal rights protesters dressed up as bulls to parodise the cruel event; and considering it created such a stir, PETA decided to make it annual to counter the Running of the Bulls.

Everyone always uses . We're not sacrificing virgins though.

What are you agreeing to? And how do you know what I have or have not researched? I am not using " tradition as a crux", I am stating that PETA's proposal to replace the running of the bulls with the running of the nudes is not an actual proposal as much as it is making a mockery of a country and town's tradition and a chance to get their name in the news. By running their event PETA just served to straighten the backs of the people in Pamplona on this issue.

I hope Michael Jackson does not run in this competition. He'll bring the Lost Boys with him 😘
