Please support us here in Europe!!

[Guest guest]

As a mother of a 5 year old, living in Spain, I AM SOOOOOO HAPPY ABOUT

THIS!!

This (read below) needs to be stopped and I beg of you to support this

international campaign against tv transmissions of bullfights from Spain to

the rest of Europe! I don't know if you

can remember, but this is the reason why I started campaigning against

bullfighting 2 years ago. The bullfighting on t.v has traumatised my child

and

I am sure she is not the only one.

 

Take care,

 

Sandra

> Sample:

>

> Dear Mrs. Reding,

> I have been informed that Spain violates directive 89/552/CEE by allowing

> bullfighting transmissions, at times when children are watching television

> within Spain. At the same time the international Spanish station RTVE

> transmits bullfights to other European countries.

> In some countries the programmes, which are unencoded, can be watched by

> satellite, from 16.30h on. Bullfights are extremely cruel and are

> " gratuitously violent " , which is explicitly forbidden by article 22 of the

> said directive.

> We ask you to insist that the transmissions of bullfights, at a time when

> children watch, are stopped, or in the case of non-compliance, the Kingdom

> of Spain be prosecuted in the Tribunal of Justice of the European

> Community.

> Yours faithfully,
