But we must not let them continue to play cockfighting because it involves the lives of animals.
Are you really serious about that?
Can we apply that argument to poultry chickens that were every day killed for human consumption? Or you will say that it's another story because people need to eat every day regardless if it's a chicken or not?
I don't understand why you are against cockfighting because it involves the
"lives" of animals but enjoys eating a chicken meal.
There's no Science or Math there.
That's different buddy. Poultry chickens that are killed for human consumption every day are those that are reared and used for consumption. But a chicken to play cockfighting will become a carcass when the chicken dies, although you can still eat it. It's completely different.
Maybe you enjoy playing cockfighting, and there is a different feeling when you see the cocks betting, getting injured, and some even dying in the middle of the match. But I don't, and go ahead if you like it.
