How can such an inhumane thing occur in a state that is run by liberals?
Hope this isn’t posted over at DU...
It will be completely misunderstood!
I am going to keep it PG on this one!
This is what people do to make money when you live in a state, like socialist California, with an unemployment rate of 10.7%.
I was about to be incensed, then I got past to the 2 first words of the headline.
One of our roosters would really bully our maltipoo. I saw it come at him and throw it’s feet forward and claw right at his back.
Then one day I said, “GIT HIM, HAMMY!”
The rooster lost several tail feathers. Problem solved.
The first rule of Cockfight Club is you do not talk about your cock. The second rule of Cockfight Club is you do not talk about your cock.
Let me tell you about my cock...
Sounds like the newest event at the Folsom Street Fair.

“It will be completely misunderstood!”
You’re correct. They’re salivating at the thought. By the time they check the dictionary for the third word they’ll be so worked up they may never understand.
If foreign invaders brought cock fighting to the US, they must have done it a long time ago. It was wildly popular among the local rednecks in the area I grew up in, in central Illinois, back in the late sixties and early seventies.
Amish (errr, I mean “White Hispanic”) at it again.
When you start calling it “massive,” your just bragging.
Roosters fight. Big whoop. How many million go down at 8 weeks of age to keep America in nuggets? May have to get some more Silver Pheasant. Very lovely fighters.
I one lived in Manila, Makati, to be precise and the cockfighting arena was a couple of blocks from my house. I went several times and watched the intense turmoil as bets were made and the very loud crowd jostled to pass the money won or lost to the center or the watcher near by.
There was no orderly window and ticket buying. There were no posted odds, there was what seemed chaos. There were smiles and frowns.
There was no moralistic animal cruelty wet blankets. The roosters naturally fight and will kill each other if not restrained. The dead rooster is food.
Here in East Tennessee you see several farms where the fighting cocks are raised. There is one very large farm on I 40 south with 40 or 50 blue plastic drums cut out for shelter. The roosters are tethered to prevent fighting. They sit on top of the drums and strut their stuff.
People here like to dis international trade but it is ultimately of good. The rooster trade here extends to the Philippines and other places where good genes in fighting Roosters are prized.
I wonder if this is the group that supplies chicken to the “Chick-fil-a” resturant in Upland,CA?
Well, this should help all Californians to sleep peacefully tonight...
How do you get the ring off when it swells up?
I heartell there’s one in San Francisco too!
Pop Quiz: Cock Fighting is a prevalent cultural feature of what third-world country located adjacent to the Golden State?
I have a huge co.., Oh never mind....
How does such a ring work, anyway?
Because the cockfighting is almost entirely run by illegal mexicans and since the illegals are a protected species that overrides their animal-hugging leftist tendencies.
The law enforcement entities tend to turn a blind eye to the cockfighting because if they did something about the cockfighting they’d end up with hundreds of illegal mexicans with animal cruelty charges to have to deal with and they really don’t want that problem.
The fact the we are hearing about this one implies that the cockfighting operation got so out of control (must have started have a bunch of fights and robberies) that the law was forced to do something about it.
You left out the most interesting parts:
“Participants included several high-ranking Los Angeles and San Bernardino county employees, including an auditor and an engineer, officials said.”
and
“Many of the participants were high level employees for Los Angeles and San Bernardino Counties.
This is gonna be good.
