Toros, otra vez
Bueno, aquí "no hablamos de corridas de toros" sino de "correbous" "que es una cosa distinta" (con unas comillas muy gordas.)

¿Qué pensamos de estas cosas, después de la prohibición de las corridas?

Parece una barbaridad, pero hay tantas barbarides cometidAs contra los
animales que el correbous parece pequeño. Ciertamente es una
celebración vívida que algunos foraneros miran como algo muy típico de una fiesta Española (¡OLE!), pero aquí en este foro debemos saber que España es un pais tan variado que la única cosa típica es la tortilla y la esaladilla rusa.

En EEUU y probablamente en el norte de México tenemos el rodeo en que
abusamos unos caballos mustangos (bucking broncos) Es algo parecido
a las pendejadas contra los toros en España.

I think that is the same, casually they are killing to more animals, only that the deport has changed to name.

I don't agree with anything related with animal murder.

Don't you?

No me hables, estoy que trino... ¡País de...!

Crotalito, en los correbous no matan al toro, sólo se le hace sufrir "un poquito":

No mas un poquito.

They are feeling a little of pink.

It's good.

Please the humanity is of the worst.

I don't believe it.

Here it is common to say the opposite of what you want to say, in a cynical way. If it has not been understood, we add: "Al revés te lo digo, para que me entiendas".

Yes, I guessed you meant it like that. I only quoted the "poquito" as a link to your post. Interestingly, you might say the same in English, but with a sarcastic tone which is not possible to recreate in a post, so plently of scope for misunderstanding.
