Re: What are your thoughts on cockfighting?

Cockfighting is extremely popular in my country, the Philippines. In fact, it's a multi-billion peso industry, and if it were to be shut down, many ordinary citizens would be affected. It's said that cockfighting existed even before the Spanish conquest, which is why I believe it's deeply embedded in our culture and tradition, making it difficult to simply put an end to it.

It’s so big that it is actually legal but it should only be held in cockpits and during Sundays also but it doesn’t really stop there because the fights also happen underground or illegally. So even if it becomes illegal, I doubt that it will be stopped.

Although many people say that cockfighting is cruel to animals, setting that issue aside and focusing on the event itself, I find it incredibly thrilling. The matches can be highly addictive—especially if you have a genuine passion for these birds.

Your thoughts?

I don’t think someone with genuine passion for birds will enjoy cockfighting lol, It would break their heart a little too much.
