A FACEBOOK user who 'celebrated' the death of 29-year-old bull-fighter Víctor Barrio in Teruel could face legal action - and as he claims to be a teacher, a petition with 150,000 signatures is calling for him to be struck off.
Celebrity TV presenter Frank Cuesta said 'being pleased about the death of a human does not make one more of an animal-lover', and insiders in the bull-fighting industry have revealed that whenever a matador is killed in the ring, the 'offending' bull and its entire family are put to sleep.
Vicent Belenguer Santos wrote in his Facebook status line: "Someone called Víctor Barrio, a bull-murderer by profession, has died in Teruel (they only know him at home during 'siesta hour'). I, as an 'educated' citizen - to the point of being a qualified teacher - am very chuffed about his death; the only thing I'm disappointed in is that the same goring didn't kill off the [expletive]s who conceived him and everyone related to him, and I testify and swear to this in front of any legal institution. Today is a happy day for humanity. We'll dance on your grave and wee on the flower wreaths on top of it, [expletive]!"
