Again, If you cut and paste the above link it will take you to where you can send them an e-mail comment. Here is what I wrote: I find it extremely offensive that you would use bulls and any other form of animal abuse and label it a sport and/or an entertainment. It is well know that this type of activity is cruel and inhumane. The animals used in rodeos are captive performers. Most are relatively tame but understandably distrustful of humans because of the harsh treatment that they have received. Many of the bulls and calfs are not aggressive by nature; they are physically provoked into displaying "wild" behavior in order to

make the cowboys look brave. In case you were not aware of this you can find out a lot more about it at www.PETA.org. Willfull ignorance of your abusive sports towards animals is unacceptable, and so is disregarding the animals. Sincerely, Adrienne G.
