Tomorrow, July 6, starts with the traditional Chupinazo at 12 day in the Town Plaza, one of the most popular festivals famous the world over. San Fermin in Pamplona, Spain
Its origin is religious and takes place hundreds of years ago
the Navarran town has a regular population. nearly 200 thousand inhabitants, but in the week of Sanfermines you can reach a million people gathered to celebrate and revere the bull. The bull on the street in this region comes from the 1700s, when the shepherds came to the central square of the city with bravos to fight at the festivities bulls.
Pamplona during San Fermin not only it is bull, then will take place this year more than 65 concerts in nine days, in six different sites of the city. Gastronomic and cultural festivals are given daily. The culture of the bull is the essential element of this fair, but not exactly run the main attraction, but to celebrate life around this magnificent animal. Live bull and man on the street, giving rise to this spirituality that takes hundreds of years feeding man in his pride, in his desire to prove that he is able to dominate the world with their courage and intelligence, and who is able to do this by putting his life at stake.
There have been 16 deaths along the closure as we know it, seem few to the great risk posed walk the 875 meters in front of a closure six bulls and as many halters. Tauromaquia outsiders traveling from all over the world to come into contact with the bull; underestimates the vast majority think it’s just a bovine that runs through the streets of Pamplona; however, San Fermin deals with miracles every meter, where the bravery and nobility of the bulls forgive the follies and excesses of many. Perhaps 90 percent of the runners understands little of bullfighting, the ritual of the bullfight and modern bullfighting, but simply feel the adrenaline and seeing the bull close feeds their soul for years, if not that for life.
Nine days of popular festivities that revolve around the bull. Respect that exists is surprising, given the conditions feast of hundreds of thousands of people, from different cultures and languages; these are some of the virtues of bullfighting. tolerance and joy for life
Today our fundamental and constitutional rights suffer from attacks by politicians without scruples or moral quality whatsoever, which do not take for education in our country, worry about trying to ban a tradition that gives cultural value to our Mexico.
I will not defend bullfighting from the economic point of view, it is not necessary, bullfighting owe defend demanding that we respect the right to free access to culture as Mexicans that the Constitution gives us. The economic point of view at the time we will attend to those opportunistic politicians understand, dimensionen this activity and translate into votes their oppressors impulses. They say be tolerant of minorities and their initiatives are prohibitionists?
How far we are taking the values of bullfighting to advance as a society. Pamplona is a living example of tolerance around an old tradition, live bull and no taurine, no respect, no single aggression is not seen as we see in football, life is celebrated playing with death, something that has fascinated man Nine days since its inicios. popular festivities that revolve around the bull. Respect that exists is surprising, given the conditions feast of hundreds of thousands of people, from different cultures and languages; these are some of the virtues of bullfighting: tolerance and joy for life
