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.
The main point here is that why need to use them for Betting and fun when chicken are provided for meal ? I mean instead of using them to make us enjoy in gambling there are so much to choose from that does not involve any lives, this may sounds corny but I think like Dog fight and other form of animal fighting ? these animals needs to be treated fair , kill them to fed us and that is OK but using them for fun is far different to what needs to be.
It would have been somewhat more acceptable if it had been organized by ferocious animals instead of cockfighting. But the animals by which they are organized are called domestic animals. As a result, if you gamble by harming those animals, there should be more pain than pleasure. Although those who have already involved themselves in such activities may have rejected the affection and love they have for the animals. Moreover, Animal Resources Department will never condone such activities.
