nerodenero: Did you say cruelty!!! What would you say about boxing and wrestling? What of Motor racing or Formula 1 that kills participants. What will you call that?

Seriously!!!!
Boxing is voluntary. No one puts a gun to your head and demands that you fight. On the other hand, ram fights are induced.
If someone forces you to fight another person for their pleasure, then it would be cruelty.

Wrestling? Really? Are you serious?

It is not in all cases that the 'induced' rams fight. No?

If they don't fight all the time then they are not forced.

Those of you talking about inhuman nature of the game pls thinks twice

there has been more than 1000 deaths related to boxing.people die in the ring due to knock out and the hit on the head.

Google this and find out.so? Shuld boxing be stoped?

If no,then why are we shouting about ram sport?

What of a horse that is tired,that wants to rest and eat grass,and is forced to run? Isnt that inhuman too?

There is a difference between "torturing" animals for pleasure and "killing" them for food. I'm sure you know this.
I think i know. When they're been killed for food, they don't feel any pain.

Well I get to choose dont I?

These animals have no choice. The comparison to wrestlers falls short because these wrestlers have rules to their game. When they get hurt, it is usually as a result of a stunt gone wrong and guess what? These wrestlers are insured and are well remunerated and can get quality health care.

Now compare that to these animals.

Here let me break it down for you. When you kill an animal for food, it hurts for a few seconds or maybe minutes and its ordeal is over. When an animal is made to fight, it can sustain grievous wounds which will cause it agony. That animal might be made to fight again and may sustain more wounds. Or it may die a slow agonizing death resulting from wounds sustained during its first fight.

I hope the difference is made clear now.

I got your points man, didn't you see the part that mentioned match officials in the original post? The writter talked about 'ram monitor, ram referee and ram marshal' just like regulatory bodies/officials in other sports. Besides, who tell you animals don't have access to good health?

As for your second paragraph,(in the court of law) killing is killing whether slowly or sudden. Religions aside,killing of animals for food or for whatever reasons you may call it is the greatest evil on the animal involve.

Not that I'm in support of Rams fighting but calling them wicked while you yourselves are still killing animals for some reasons is quite annoying.

One of my greatest amazement in life is meat eating pple that call themselves animal rights activist. It's jst funny. Can someone tell me the difference between tying a ram's legs down and then putting a knife to its throat and using the animals to fight? It is the same to me ooooo. Animal rights ko animal rights ni. The only time animals will have rights is when they can refuse to be eaten. No animals were harmed in this movie na yinmu but many were slaughtered and eaten sha. You're eating goat head pepper soup and calling yourself animal rights activist God is watchin u.
