AN ODD STORY: THE SWITCH BLADE ROOSTER!

A rooster armed with a blade attached to his wing was considered the reason of death to a California man attending a cockfight. Reports indicated that the man was accidentically stabbed in his right calf by the knife worn by the foul bird which was the cause of death. Many think the man did not seek immediation to his sudden womb and possibly bled to death or; and it may have been infection that also caused his passing. The man died within 2 hours after his affliction on January 30, 2011.

Cockfighting is an illegal sport in the United States and often these animal fight to the death, or later put into incapacition or killed. Usually, these fights are raided by police and law officials. This was the case in this story-- fleeing from the raid he was hurt and the wound caused his death.

I think this was an ODD and tragic story!

Cockfighting is cruel to aninmals
even though those placing bets
take great risks!
Often if you're like me, you don't think fights like these still go but they still do.

Yes! true the rooster was armed with a blade to his wing, accidentically stabbed him in the leg and he later died from the wound.
Awesomely ODD!

UNBELIEVABLE!

Greed, and just being in places like that...it's true you can actually be in wrong places seeking money for profit. Human life taken over such meaningless entertainment.

I see what you mean Irma Girl! I'm going on my own feelings as I feel it's the wrong place for me to be!
You did make a good observation that many like enjoy the sport of cock-fighting, But, that particular sport is illegal so that's the view I was noting a being the wrong place. Each person can always decidesand choose what they like, but we well know everything we like isn't always good.
"Everything that feels, look or taste good isn't always good for for you." I guess some find out or take the risks ...and well, I can't determine their reason except they give it a try anyway....that's where I leave it to their fate. Interesting.

Reminds me of the scene from Roots with Chicken George!

Exactly! Cockfighting is a very old practice dating back to ancient times. I may do some research and see what I can find out about this sport.

I was wondering if anyone else was watching "Roots" on DVD for Black History Month?

Siebra Muhammad Wednesday, February 9th 2011 at 2:56PM

Yes

Yes..it's a major milestone to Blacks and their ancestry in book and film.
Nothing has topped it in my opinion as for it's impact on Blacks world over!

Here are few facts and little history I researched quickly on The Sport of Cockfighting:

+ Cockfighting orginated and recorded by the Indus Valley Civilization around 2000 B.C.

+ The Sport is popular today in countries: India, China, Greece, Mexico and South American countries.

+ The Sport may have been introduced in Greece under Themistocles rule in between 460-564 B.C.

+ In many countries today Cockfighting is a poplar and proudly celebrated in competetion.

Source came for Widipedia.

Just a few interesting notes.

I hate to see the cruelty to the fighting birds, they really engage in bloody battles. It's a bit distasteful to see them fighting so roughly. That's quite common where you live huh? If they are in my hometown it's keep under close hidden secret places, but I feel it does go on.

You take of little "Moon Valley" I hope the small beauty will bring you hours and years of enjoyment.

LOL!

@MIISRAEL, a person going to cock fights to bet and be enteretained by this I can not say is being in the 'wrong' place (at least ) for them...

because it is the "them" that this sport is no different than boxing...some people like boxing better than they like cock fighitng so they spend big bucks to keep their chosen favorite sports going is how I look at it. (smile)

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

Sort of a reminder of how worthless a human life is when it comes up against greed. (nup)

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

@MIISRAEL, "I" had been intending to tell this about what was on our 11pm news about cock fightings...it seem this week there have been a 1000 police raids all over our state with many , many arrest and also raids on where they are kept. these birds are found in bad shape so the human society and some law makers in Sacramento have come to gather to get cock fighting a felony in our state as it is in a lot of other states.

As of not cock fighting earns about as much as a fine for getting a traffic ticket.(smile)

YES WE CAN...

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

@MIISRAEL, all "I" can say about cock fighting in my local area is if I knew about it I sure would report it...but as much drug labs and places that sell drugs raided around here, I would not be suprised if we have cock fighting also. (smile)

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

( MIISRAEL, wish me luck with the small house plant that had on its label, I am Pilea "Moon Valley" on it...I just fell in love with it and hope I don't get anothr houseplant murder charged added on me)...lol (smile)
