Cockfighting in SC

We need to legalize cockfighting in SC. We could have cockfights in the Farmers Market pregame football Saturdays. Go Gamecocks! If Colorado can legalize Pot why can't SC legalize cockfighting? We could let people gamble on Gamecock fighting and tax the proceeds and call it The Education Cockfight Lottery.

Saw it in the Philippines bc its every where and like a national sport. However, I want us to support it in no way. We already have a few things that tarnish our school and state.

OP- you want to see some cockfights in sc? Check your PMs.

Guessing from the tone of his post that Zen isn't serious, at least one would hope not. Although someone must actually like it since it still exists. I like in the article how the guy denies knowledge that it was a rally in support of cockfighting - guess he realized that he's not going to make up a 40 point deficit in the polls by coming out in support of it

Zen has been on lately...

Or we could just schedule Jacksonville State.

This. Even though it wouldn't be much of a fight. It would be like Ron Jeremy battling Pee Wee Herman.

God forbid we bet on what animals do naturally.

I think it's stupid...we pay to see men beat each other to a pulp but get all offended when animals do it.

don't care one way or another, but to get all pissed off about it is stupid...there are far, far more important legal issues out there than one rooster killing another.

So you are equating two grown men who choose to fight to two roosters having metal cockspurs or gaffes attached to their claws and being forced to fight til death in a pit. Rooster fights in nature are nothing like the "sport". Natural spurs don't inflict the same damage and one rooster will relent

As one who has been to a cockfight..... I don't believe the sport is ready for prime time! Nor will it ever be!

Would be too violent for us to do it.

The majorty of South Carolinians would not accept it.

In the Mediterranean and in South America, they have bull fights and cock fights.

But I am not here to tell cock and bull stories.

I also don't see the appeal of betting on animals fighting to the death.

This also applies to dogs.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks we need to do this.

I am all for repealing laws that interfere with individual liberty. How does it hurt anyone if two other people agree to let their roosters fight? If someone does not wish to see a cockfight, just don't go to one.

Because we are a democracy, people voted for this so if you want to continue to see cockfights, go to Thailand.
