How Is This A Triumph?

Gored and blinded in one eye by the bull he was torturing to death, matador Juan Jose Padilla made a “triumphant” return to the ring by torturing two more bulls to death.
If you’re going to kill an animal for its meat and skin, do it as quickly and painlessly as possible. Violently abusing it as you deliver an extended public execution does not make you more of a man just because it is bigger and stronger than you. You have the distinct advantage of weaponry, superior intelligence and logistical support.
To kill an animal in such a manner is not in any way a triumph. It demeans you, the bull, the spectators and your culture in general.
If you want to prove your manhood in combat, how about helping hunt down and kill the rest of the arseholes (and all their supporters) who were involved in the murder 190 of your compatriots? They are your real enemies.
