The autonomous region of Catalonia has voted today for the banning of bullfighting, a time-honoured Spanish tradition.

There are those who argue that this vote is a demonstration of anti-Spanish sentiment from Catalonian separatists. It doesn't seem to be that way, though; although I haven't been following this closely, from what I've read it seems that this was a popular vote brought to Catalonia's parliament, and not an issue promoted by any political party.
Personally I've been against bullfighting since I can remember. I think it's cruel and unnecessary, although I understand that this is a very old tradition and (some argue) an important part of Spanish culture. I don't agree; I think cultures evolve, and if enough people are against this "cultural manifestation" (I hesitate to call it sport, and I don't think it's an art form as its supporters regard it), then it's probably time to move on and leave this tradition behind.
