The Times They Are A Changin'

"And suddenly, I looked at the bull. He had this innocence that all animals have in their eyes, and he looked at me with this pleading. It was like a cry for justice, deep down inside of me. I describe it as being like a prayer - because if one confesses, it is hoped, that one is forgiven. I felt like the worst shit on earth."
"This photo shows the collapse of Torrero Alvaro Munera, as he realized in the middle of the [originaltypo] his last fight... the injustice to the animal. From that day forward he became an opponent of bullfights"

According to some, bullfighting is wonderful catharsis. I think the idea here is that it reflects brutal reality back on the spectator, who gets it, views it, and gets a profound effect of some kind. Well guess what. 
     That shit ain't workin' no more. 
     If even the bull knows that the times they are a changin' maybe it is time for the       
               politicians to get it too.
 
                  No more wars!
