I think people are confused about this. Oui=yes and Non=no. I voted and probably posted a comment in french. I can't remember.

Just checked and there was no place for comment so I just voted Oui. Actually I did it again just now. Hope this helps out.

Have voted in support of the ban, but what I don't understand is: Why is VSD France doing this poll? Is bull fighting even allowed in France?

I voted OUI. What gets me is that this is done for entertainment. I think that there is much better ways to entertain oneself other than watching something like this.

Thanks for the info., Pam, and do pardon my ignorance. I thought bull fighting is only done in Spain, hence my query about France....

All spectacles that use animals for entertainment should be banned, in my humble opinion. That included bullfighting, horse racing, greyhound racing and any other form of entertainment that puts animals in peril.

noted, thank you, Pam

I can't believe that so many more people voted "NON" than "OUI" Is this poll for care2 only? If so, we have an awful lot of very sick people on this site.

I think this is terrible that people on a site promoting animal rights voted no to abolishing bull fighting. The only reason is perhaps what Elle J earlier said, people think that by voting "NON", they are voting to end this practice.
By voting "OUI"... people....you are voting YES to END this barbaric practice!

I'm partly Spanish but have always disagree with "Bullfighting" and it's time to STOP this so called "entertainment!!"

I can't believe the NON are winning. Do people not understand how cruel this is?

Noted and OUI vote gladly cast. I'll pass this on. So sad and disappointing that this barbaric 'sport' is still considered acceptable by so many! *Sigh*

It's frightening that so many so-called civilized people seem to need this for their pathetic egos.

I have voted yes to the banning of bullfighting. It is nothing but the barbaric treatment of an animal

It’s had to believe our society remains to
embrace its barbaric sole so proudly, when it
demands that my conversation be politely
correct or I am crude and insensitive.
