Since the days of Ernest Hemingway, the famous writer and alcoholic, tourists and adventure seekers around the world have aroused the annual interest in San Fermin Festival 2019 in Pamplona for its most famous and bloodiest attraction: the bull run.
Adrenaline junkies flocking in droves, macho types wanting to prove their skills, and herds of beer-travelers looking for alcohol and adventure flock to Pamplona every July to prove that a feeble mind is not just connected to the bull run.
At the first run on Sunday July 6, 2019, according to a hospital, at least five people have been injured. As the Red Cross reported, one person was pierced by a bull’s horn and two more suffered skull trauma on the first day.
(Unfortunately too little damage, the fate of the bulls is much worse ! If there had been 200 deaths, the bull race would be abolished, and so we would not talk about Pamplona next year and in the future)
What happens there?
Since 1591, eight fighting animals have been driven about 850 meters through the old town of Pamplona for eight days. The bulls come from the south of Spain and are kept outside the city before the bullfights in the corrales. These are young animals weighing between 550 and 700 kilograms and can reach speeds of around 25 km / h.
The bulls are driven over a distance of 850 meters to the arena, where they are killed in the evening by Toreros. (more precise formulated: bull murderer).
The end is inevitable: The exhausted bull is killed amid the cheers of the numerous spectators and the victorious Matador celebrated.
My comment: Why does not Spain ban this shit? Yes, money !! And tradition, as always as an excuse.
With the high unemployment of the country stupid tourists must be lured into the place with primitive spectacles. Man, man, man! Humanity is and remains stupid and sick. Every year this garbage, one wonders, in which century do these naked animals still live?
Spaniard: Take tanks instead of bulls! So no animal would need to suffer unnecessarily, but the result would remain the same.

The request of the Social Democratic Partyof Austria (SPÖ) finds a majority, the consequence: In Austria comes a glyphosate ban.
The dangerous weed killer must not be sold in the future.
Glyphosate is the world’s most used weedkiller. It has been used in agriculture, industry, horticulture and private households since the mid-1970s.
Monsanto sells the herbicide under the name “Roundup” and has been making billions in sales since the 1970s. No wonder then that Monsanto lobbyists claim that glyphosate is so harmless that it can even be safely drunk (!!!)
But…US courts think otherwise
In three separate cases, they have ruled that the glyphosate drug Roundup from Bayer subsidiary Monsanto is a “significant factor” in the onset of the cancer.
A Californian court last ordered Monsanto to pay $ 250 million in damages to a cancer patient in August 2018.
He blamed the plant poison glyphosate for his cancer – and the jury proved him right.
Now comes total glyphosate ban! On 2 July 2019, the Socialist Party of Austria finally pushed for a ban.!!
My comment: Congratulations Austria!
Good decision. Finally, a country has the courage to go against the lobby of the Bayer Group.
Here in Germany, we are still sleeping and, as always, we remain groundlessly optimistic about the future of our planet and in solidarity with the decisions of the Monsanto / Bayer lobbyists, also known as the EU – Commission!
Let’s hope that we will soon come to such a progressive decision as the Austrians.

This dog was just thrown in the trash. The owner had moved to another location and did not want to take her dog. When the garbage was to be picked up after 6 days, the men noticed that something was moving in a plastic bag and found the totally emaciated dog and rescued him. But many dogs do not have this luck.
It is summer time and many pack kids and cones and travel. Only one family member will like to forget, the dog.
Thousands of animals are also exposed in Germany every summer.
It is supposed to be fifteen million pets that are maltreated, neglected or abandoned every year.
If they are captured, they live in shelters the rest of their lives or are cruelly killed by the authorities.
We call for an international animal welfare law to deal ethically with stray dogs and cats in all member states of the EU.
Background
If they are captured, they live in shelters for the rest of their lives or are killed by the authorities.
If they are not captured, they spend their lives hungry on the streets or are brutally slaughtered. From people who see animals as objects or even as pests that can be maltreated, tortured and killed. And without being punished.
When catching fatally injured
Countless dogs and cats are caught by unqualified animal catchers. These often use brutal methods. Sometimes stun weapons are used, which injure some animals so much that they die a painful death on the spot.
In front of scared children
Especially before major international “events”, the authorities “clean up” the streets with mass murders. Often this happens in front of the eyes of frightened passers – by and children.
We call on the EU to enact a law that regulates the protection of pets and the ethical dealings with strays in all member states.
The aim of this law is to protect the animals and reduce the strays ethically. This law should, inter alia, consider the following points:
– Registration obligation for all strays
– Castration obligation for all strays
– Establishment of an International Animal Cruelty Register linked to the lifelong prohibition of activities related to animals
Thank you for raising your voice for the animals today.
My comment: I have three cats, all from ” rescue service for wild animals” in my city.
The two siblings dropped off in an asparagus field in heavy winter because they were not purebred.
They were only 2 weeks old. Both were frozen and half dead.
The third was a move victim. Some brainworms have moved and left her in the garden.
She was one year old and cried for 5 days in the cold. Nobody wanted to take her!
Earlier, we thought, that only happens in southerners. Here in Germany it is exactly the same.
It’s just so! We correct the deeds of the criminals of this society every day. In every way!
We can not save all the strays, but many of us can give a nice home to one or two animals.
You will have a faithful friend for life.

Pictures proving that a self-conferred special right exists only for the ruling human species, based on a gigantic discrimination and exploitation of all other species, which this right is denied.
The right to one’s own dignity, the right to self-determination, the right to natural behavior, in other words the right to freedom exist nowhere for animals.
Human rights are on their core fascist and favors the stronger.
All other animal species suffer from the law of the dominant species, which calls itself “Human Species”.
These are pictures that prove the fundamental lawlessness of the animals

Every year in Namibia, 86,000 Cape Fur Seal pups are butchered to death.
Namibia is the only southern hemisphere country where seals are commercially slaughtered and the only country in the world where slaughter of puppies still nursed by mothers is possible.
The cruel seal hunt is actually known only from Canada.And Canada has also resumed the bloody seal hunt, although demand for seal products has plummeted.
But even on another continent, seals are slaughtered by the thousands. Between 80,000 and 100,000 dwarf fur seals, also known as eared seals, cavort at the Cape Cross on the rocks in Namibia.
Over the next four months, as we learn, thousands of seals living in Cape Cross and Atlas Bay are brutally killed for their fur, oil and genitals. The genitals are exported to Asia.
The terrible bloodshed has already begun. The hunting season lasts 139 days from July to November.
The butcher of Namibia – Hatem Yavuz
Hatem Yavuz, known as the butcher of Namibia, is the man responsible for the death of hundreds of thousands of seals – both in Canada and Namibia, according to hesealsofnam.org.
Yavuz is an Australian citizen and also has Turkish citizenship.
He is honorary consul in Namibia for Turkey and has as a diplomat both a luxury vehicle and offices, which are paid by the Namibian taxpayer. As a Consul of Namibia, he is a government official and benefits directly from the sale of the country’s assets, according to the organization.
The Turkish and Australian based company Hatem Yavuz named after the owner Hatem Yavuz controls roughly 60 percent of the world’s seal market and processes 130,000 seal pelts every year in his Istanbul factory.Yavuz also has a hand in the Canadian seal market and claims to be proud of what he does. In an interview that spurred a flurry of hate mail, Yavuz told “7 News” in Australia that “It’s a job.If I don’t do it, someone else is going to do it.”
My comment: I read in another website that this bloody spectacle is a popular tourist attraction.
If some dull, mentally ill proletarians can find it beautiful, get excited, and enjoy how innocent and utterly defenseless animals suffer and are tortured to death like this, then they are nothing more than pathetic monsters, and they do not deserve anything like their own human rights.
The Government of Namibia allows this. The Government of Australia, Turkey and Canada allows fur trade.
And if the butcher Hatem Yavuz says massacring innocent beings is just a job, then why is he no longer burning witches, or selling slaves? That would be good business too.
For this, all he needs to do is make an offer to the governments that they can not refuse.

“Over 150 million animals are killed for food around the world every day—just on land. That comes out to 56 billion land animals killed per year. Including wild-caught and farmed fish, we get a total closer to 3 billion animals killed.” (Jo-Anne McArthur / We Animals)
There is no other cause or struggle that comes even close in numbers.
Most victims of the Animal Holocaust do not even have legal means to be defended in courts around the globe. Their voices are not acknowledged. This is the only cause in which the victims are not even recognized as victims by the majority of the human population.
How can we trivialize the magnitude of the massacre and abuse that thousands of millions of non-human animalsare subjected to every week by somehow equating any other tragedy with theirs?
Just trying to include any other cause in the spaces dedicated to animal rights is an anthropocentric gesture—one which only shows selfishness and a false sense of human supremacy.
Attempts to overshadow the animal rights struggle, to not let it exist on its own, and to hide the scale of non-human annihilation at a single species’ hands are just reflections of the internalized speciesism in our society.
The need to create a movement with a unique and specific cause focused on defending the rights of voiceless victims—victims who cannot make use of the human language or legally defend their own lives—originated from that void among justice movements. The goal was to have a movement specifically dedicated to shedding light on the most ignored victims, the most oppressed on the planet, and the most numerous above all: non-human animals.
“I want to make it clear: All around us there is a system of degradation, cruelty and killing that can compete with anything the Third Reich was capable of; indeed it can overshadow it, because our system knows no end, it regenerats itself, incessantly giving birth to rabbits, rats, poultry, livestock, just to kill them.”

It’s a brutal business: On horse farms in South America, mares are held for one purpose only: to take blood from them. For in the blood of pregnant mares is the hormone PMSG – a popular drug in this country for pig breeding. For years, the grievances are denounced. But almost nothing has changed.
What is the hormone PMSG used for?
In Europe, PMSG ( Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotropin) is used to synchronize piglet production. This is mainly used in industrial mass production. One wants to prove the mother sows at the same time.
The so-called insemination engineers of the agricultural industry then only need to come once.
Then all are inseminated at the same time and all get their piglets at the same time within a few hours.
That is, you can calculate the exact day and hours.
Of course this makes the handling of the production very easy. The piglets can be exhibited at the same time, be fattened and thus slaughtered at the same time.
The perfect way to clock the whole production!!
The current video footage has made York Ditfurth turn at high risk. After the release of the first images in 2015, the South American “blood farms” had made various promises to improve conditions. So workers should be exchanged and a more animal-friendly handling of the horses be prescribed.
The current recordings show even more catastrophic abuses. They prove that the misery of the mares in South America has not improved. Animal rights activist York Ditfurtis shocked by the scale.
The animal cruelty had never been so detailed in detail.
For 100 grams PMSG be paid around the 850,000 euros. That is a lot of money. If one calculates the cheap acquisition costs and maintenance costs for a mare, money is printed with the blood.
From two and a half liters of blood, two milligrams of PMSG are recovered. At least ten liters are tapped from the mares a week. Eleven weeks long. That’s more than 110 liters of blood in one season.
PMSG is eventually sold to Europe.
Since the mares only produce the coveted hormone until the 130th day of gestation, the foals are aborted manually as waste because they are not needed.Abortion is also extremely painful for the animals: For example, workers simply scratch the uterus of the horses with their hands. The animals are left to themselves and brought back to the pastures. Veterinary care does not exist.
My comment: Guidelines of the OIE and the EU Commission exist only for the meat production, but not for the production of an animal by-product, among which the blood serum falls.
The customers of PMSG, including European pharmaceutical companies, have so far shown no interest in introducing binding legislation.
Because they also benefit from this loophole, and from the dirty business with the life and suffering of the animals, as always.
And so continues the dirty business of suffering and dying mares and foals in the blood farms.
I think that would as well work with the blood of tortured pharmaceutical entrepreneurs who have something to answer, right?
