A Load of Old Bull

Tweet

A Spanish bullfighter has found himself in hot water after posting a photograph, on Instagram, of him training in the ring, with a bull, while carrying his baby daughter. Now let's just try to forget just what a senseless, barbaric, idiotic, cruel 'sport' bullfighting is. I do try but, strangely enough, I can't! Anyway, assuming I can, the supremely confident Fransisco Rivera Ordonez, rather laughingly offered as his defence the statement "She is never going to be safer than she is in my arms". Oh really? So speaks the man who is currently taking a break from professional bullfighting as he was gored through the stomach by a bull last August. It's only a shame it wasn't more serious! Maybe the spineless coward who spears magnificent animals with drug-laced lances and then torments them to the point of exhaustion in their drug-addled state before completely pointlessly and unnecessarily killing them, errr... I mean brave matador, should have a career rethink. Failure obviously runs in his family. His father was gored to death by a bull in 1984. As Morrissey recently warbled: "Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies, Hooray, hooray, the bullfighter dies, And nobody cries, Nobody cries, Because we all want the bull to survive". Amen to that, Moz!!
