I found this website that shows videos of cockfighting. For people that dont know what cockfighting entails, its basically dog fighting but with chickens. The website has hundreds of videos on it. Unfortunately you have to subscribe to the website to actually watch the videos, so my viewings were limited.
The act of being involved in cockfighting is deviant by itself. A good example of this was the Mike Vick case a couple years back with dogfighting. Vick was sentenced to several months in jail. Different animals but same concept when talking about deviance.
I guess the purpose of this website is to support avid cockfighting fans. I didnt realize that cockfighting was such a popular activity to be involved with. Cockfighting seems to be quite popular around the world internationally, not so much within the U.S. In my opinion cockfighting is quite deviant. Anytime you force two animals to fight to the death it will and should be labeled deviant and inhumane.
Forcing two animals to kill each other is on another level than just being deviant.
I would have to agree with you that cockfighting is a deviant behavior. When the Vick story came out it made me sick. I do not understand what would compel someone to put animals against each other to fight to the death as some sort of entertainment. Frankly it is something I do not understand and something I will never support.
ReplyDeleteYes, in some countries it's quite a common source of entertainment/money! Still happens in some states here too..
