  1. ..I don’t like it……I think it is fowl…..all cocks should be kept in their pants..hey..
    ummm..I mean they should not be allowed.

  2. Government –end of message

  3. It’s wrong, barbaric and should be outlawed everywhere, no exceptions. Government should win.

  4. hello

    Cockfighting and dog fighting need be banned and severe punishment handed down. I’m not a PETA person because I think they are a joke but I agree with them on this one,

  6. Well, that the government is slaughtering the cocks during/after raids doesn’t really make any sense. $ 7 mil. seems like an awful lot for such an under the table gambling scheme. I imagine the government will win this case.

    Just had a thought though. Aren’t cock-fighting and dog-fighting similar to the prestigious bull-fighting in Spain (and elsewhere)? All of us have our own definition of “sport”….here’s the definition:

    An active pastime; recreation. A specific diversion usually involving physical excersize and having a set form and body of rules.

    So, I guess I’m neutral on this one. Cocks fight naturally in the wild. To have them penned to fight for wagers. I don’t know how ethical that is. Can’t say.

    I’d have to go with the government on that one!..

  8. I think it should be outlawed along with dog fighting. That is just cruel to do animals this way.Government should outlaw this.

    I think they are both wrong. I don’t like the idea of training animals to kill or maim other animals, but the government killed 700 chickens!
