ALGEMESÍ
CALVES TORMENT ON SEPTEMBER 22ND, 2007
On the
22nd 2007 in Algemesí, Valencia, the "traditional"
spectacle of extreme sadism towards innocent animals will be
celebrated again, as every year: Many baby calves will
be chased down the streets while the rabble stabs them
with 6 to 8 cm spears. Witnesses say it is truly heart wrenching to
hear their pitiful screams while they get
tortured and try hopelessly to hide from the spears. When they
are too tired and bleeding on the ground they are finished off with
an 80 cm sword, stabbed up to 40 times. Thousands of people
participate in this "fiesta" and many very young children
witness the torture and massacre.
