The castle was not at 00:00? How unpunctual those of the new town hall!!!
Those of the "old Town Hall" were very punctual, right?
Hahahahahahaha
Pathetic yours.
Alcohol and Bulls.
The Jávea of the hicks for the hicks.
Nothing new.
Do not forget to piss well for all the facades you see.
That in the morning it's all garbage and pee, pee everywhere.
Let's go rednecks!
Drunk as vats until the many!
Let's go chavs!!
Martial gosh you've been comfortable, intolerant that's what you are
Well, I think the same and I don't see that the issue is intolerant, it's being fed up with so much drunk.
another rude
Paleto your donkey
I am a British National, resident in Spain, and I don't think it is my place to tell the Spanish to discontinue bullfighting that has been part of their national culture for generations. In England we torture and murder children. I know which culture I prefer.
I see, that all the commentators are not from Jávea, why, you do not respect the culture of the town where you live,
I don't like bulls but I respect and do not insult hicks, garrulos, abusive people, and if you don't like how your money is invested, there are more towns and cities.
It is seen that your mental capacity prevents you from understanding something basic, you can be from Jávea and not like bullfights.
I know you don't get it, but it's a fact.
Hopefully one day someone will explain it to you well, repeatedly and you will be able to understand it.
Moniata if he just told you that he doesn't like them.
Alcohol and Bulls.
The Jávea of the hicks for the hicks.
Nothing new.
Do not forget to piss well for all the facades you see.
That in the morning it's all garbage and pee, pee everywhere.
Let's go rednecks!
Drunk as vats until the many!
Let's go chavs!!
It's a shame not to know what your facade is so that the whole town can go piss on you, useless piece, I'm fed up with riffraff like you who aren't from here but you're still here
You are the clear example of the redneck from Jávea.
the bulls are the best to shut up
Is someone going to tell dust that people are tired of her doing and undoing at will as if the parties were hers?
It is necessary to prohibit access to the bulls of those under 18 or, failing that, those who turn 18 in the year (fifths).
Long live Bullfighting!! Come to the Sales in Madrid! That really is ART and CULTURE (something that surely each and every one of those who have commented is in short supply!!) LONG LIVE SPAIN!
Bullfighting and animal abuse in general totally expendable. Until those of us who think like this are more and more and this is extinguished once and for all. Come on, we are in the XNUMXst century!
What a piece of hicks with the roll of the bulls, what a wildly redneck town.
Buy yourself a mountain and jump on it.
There are a thousand ways to have fun without having to use animals to do it. LIVE AND LET LIVE
How stupid and low level to torture bulls and other animals for pleasure. They can't find a way to make the event fun but??? Gross
ENOUGH OF ANIMAL ABUSE!!!! I can say it louder but not clearer. There are thousands of ways to have fun. Why choose fun at your expense? Why choose fun by making a defenseless animal suffer? ENOUGH NOW!!!
Well, because they are a bunch of self-conscious louts
Whoever says it is, the world upside down. This phrase is valid both for Emilio and for each one of those who exalt yourselves by insulting, you know who. Of course, thanks to that, we have a fairly complete description of you.
Let's see handsome guys, if the bullfights are over, what will happen to the bulls? Do you adopt them as puppies? Do you keep them in the zoo so they don't become extinct? How easy it is to criticize without giving solutions.
If I had the power, I would not prohibit bullfighting, but I would change the way of enjoying them.
When I was little, I lived in the Thiviers area and I remember that we would make dolls that we would drop from the balcony so that the bull would charge it. I guess he would propose something like replacing bullfighters with rag dolls or puppets (something to 'play' with the bull without harming either party). It will sound very strange said like that, but it is only a basic idea, we would have to invent a way to make it work..
You are correct in your comments. Please stop using animals that are not objects or toys. The people who organize and participate in this should imagine how they would feel if they were put in a cage to make them dizzy and beat them like they do with the bulls. please a little more empathy
Look, shut up, what a headache to listen to you
Until when are we going to continue investing money in torturing animals??? With the acts that you have scheduled for the holidays. With the money that has been invested in mistreating animals, you could have invested in more activities, or even in concerts. But not like always, if the animals are not mistreated, the town's drunks are not happy. Well, the majority of foreign people who live in Jávea reject these festivities. It seems incredible that we are in the XNUMXst century. Enough of animal abuse. evolve at once
It's a shame not to know what your facade is so that the whole town can go and piss you off, useless bit, I'm sick of riffraff like you who aren't from here but you're still here I'm from thiviers and I remember seeing everything you say, what I don't understand is of animal abuse when the only one who goes with a club is the shepherd of the animals, also I do not believe that a bull is defenseless, put yourself in front of how defenseless the animal is
I agree.. enough of mistreating animals!
We want parties that we can all enjoy! That our money does not go to animal abuse.
Soon anti-bullfighting demonstrations will be called from Animal Save Denia. Search the Facebook or Instagram
You really can't have parties without the Primitive savagery and palette that the bulls represent??? In the XNUMXst century, animals are still being tortured to the delight of drunks and savages with my taxes?
What a display of Fiestas, impressive stage and staging of La Reina Mayor de Les Fogueres, go dressed up. They don't have money to fix Javea but to squander it in 15 days of partying they do. They will never do anything with that concept of life. They can only wait for those 15 days each year to drink the money.
