The world doesn't need help manufacturing aggression in our children. We need to be protecting them (our kids) from such examples of aggression. That environment IS NOT healthy, productive, or quality time spent with young people. I grew up in the good ole days with Mad Dog,the bald dude who was known for "the claw, the early days of the Hulkster, and a tag-team of 2 guys (brothers, maybe?) Who were really almost clean-cut. I have forgotten the names but not the faces, or the ambiance of the events. It was around 1982ish. That would have been a better environment to bring a child to. Just My stupid and unimportant opinion...

Couldn't have said it better myself. The results of this poll show the type of civil, humane-type of person who frequents WOOT. Bravo for humanity!

Only amateur ones. Well, there is money involved, but I don't think the roosters get any of it, so they are still amateurs, right?

Other: No, I'd rather not take them to fights. If they are interested when they are older, then someone else can take them. They shouldn't be outlawed, because then only outlaws would have x-ray glasses...

Hey!
Isn't that a kompetativ sport?
Once again, I don't kompeet.

Add to that - a barbaric, inhumane, profit motivated, brain numbing, snowmanic, blankity blank blank SPORT? SPORT?
or it it spurt, as in blood?

It's all about perspective. I took my boy to a championship fight, but he is almost 40 years old.

Really?? No option in between "No, but I (will later)" and "No, and it shoudl be outlawed!!" *sigh*

Just for the record, I'm a "No, but I don't get silly about being up in other people's business by limiting their options", and I woudl be half the people who chose the last option agree, just so the others don't make assumptions about our desire to want to foist our lifestyles on others legislatively.

...*sigh*
