You can not criticize if you do not know all those things surrounding this festivity which is much more than "kill that bull in 30 minutes". Behind it, there are many other activities involved that were prepared for this event for almost 10 months, previously. Hollywood and the media promote much more violence every day, but that is Ok. Millions of cows are sacrifice in the slaughterhouses with much more cruelty than in the arenas nevertheless that is also Ok. After all, nobody has died being vegetarian.
