Your thoughts on Calf Roping

Tell me what you think about calf roping; should it be banned or should PETA mind their own business?

EDIT: My thoughts are that people need to worry about other things such as dogs and cats being mistreated, and even horses being slaughtered for consumption.

Mind their own business.

Is pretty harmless no? It's not like they are staked 10 times and then decapitated, right?

I agree, but most of the people who are with PETA are like "OMG NO WAI, CALF ROPING SO BAD YOU BREAK THEIR NECKS blah blah blah", the chances of them are slim though because the calves are bred for this.

Just because something has been done for a long time doesnt make it right.

There are places where people rape newborns to "cure" aids, they have been doing it for a while yet should we mind our own buisness?

Im not saying im with PETA on this one, dont really see the problem if the calf isnt killed or something after.

calf roping = kinda like rodeos right?

IMO i don't think it should be outlawed or anything, but its pretty pathetic people find entertainment in someone roping a baby cow. do it to a bull instead, instead of someone/thing that can't defend itself ~,~''

Does anyone ever back PETA? Shouldn't they be more worried about the people that stick swords through bulls? Or people that eat the calf?

If anything should be outlawed its bull riding... That's about the most stupid shit I've ever seen... and I was born and raised in Texas. A rider can go years without getting anything but a few concussions, knocked out teeth, and broken bones. (all in 8 seconds or less =D )

In some cases I support PETA and in some I don't, in this one I do though

What is that actual purpose to roping a calf?

same as for bull riding, etc. It's just a show.

edit: and a competition to see who can do it the fastest.

So it is just for entertainment, so I don't agree with it..

Didn't we already establish that PETA are a bunch of hypocrites after all those other animals were killed because they didn't want to take care of them or some shit?

Something about they can't find homes for a lot of animals so they are forced to put them down, yeah.

Riding horses is also entertainment.

But you don't harm/annoy the horses

Nah, you just force them to carry your lazy ass on their back.

If a horse doesn't want you on its back, it will throw you off. Same with race horses, if it doesn't want to race, it won't.
