Would you support modern gladiator fighting?
    #18901244 - 09/28/13 12:54 AM (10 years, 4 months ago)

I'm not talking about UFC or professional fighting.

I'm talking about guys with medieval weaponry entering a booby-trapped arena and fighting with a very real chance of dismemberment and/or death.

Would you pay to see it?

Yes definitely. I was just thinking this exact thought the other day that I would like to see stuff like that instead of go to a bar or a baseball game. There's no visirality left to sociey anymore.

Fuck, I don't think so. I love boxing, it may very well be my favorite sport and seeing guys get knocked out is more than enough for me.

I don't think I'd want to see people die right in front of me. And so what if you become a die hard fan of some bad ass gladiator and then you get his PPV and watch his head get chopped the fuck off.

:damnwtf:

plus you'd have a lot of yuppies in the crowd reacting like this during the shit going down

:zomgteehee:

People who are never wrongfully convicted. Poor people and slaves mostly. Just like the original gladiators.

Would you support the wanton slaughter of poor people and slaves?

No. I've seen videos of people getting killed, it's always very disturbing, never fun.

One would really have to be an unethical creep with strong sociopath tendencies to enjoy this kind of thing. Anyone who actually enjoys it, should also be prepared to participate in it.

I would disagree.  Many people have never seen a person violently die or even die for that matter.  It shocks them to the core when they do. If people saw death all around them all the time they would just adapt and it wouldn't be much more than fishing or shooting is enjoyable to some people.
I personally think if you enjoy shooting an innocent deer then you're a complete asshole. But I don't think you're a psycho. I have to explain this to other vegans who claim fisherman and hunters are murdering psycho's
It's just the zeitgeist. ...the mind is adaptable. Watching people die has proven to be very popular through the Internet.

Maybe they'll put it on ESPN. And on Mondays. They'll call it "Monday Night Massacre".

I tried to make sense out of your post, but quite honestly, it eludes me.

Confronting people with killing more would be good because it would desensitize them?
From an ethical viewpoint, killing a deer for food would be the same as killing a human for entertainment?

What are you trying to say?
