jhave these things beeen made illegal? Why all the fuss? professional fighters tdo the same (for much more money). Any reason why this mode of self-expression is now disreputable?
You mean has “soliciting others to commit a crime” been made illegal?
Yeah, I think it has. Probably sometime around 1215.
Turns out some of the homeless solicited to fight may not have had their state boxing licenses.
It took me a little while to realize you were talking about the homeless.
I do not recall the last time a professional fighter was offered 20.00 to pull out their own teeth with pliers.
Or when they coerced the guy to take a pole and beat on the first passing car he saw?
Ah yes…good times…good times…
“Self-expression”?!
Need you even ask? Taking advantage of people who are desperate for ‘entertainment’.
Gawd what is wrong with this world?
When the hell was it considered “reputable?”
I didn’t think bumfights were a big deal until I heard a doc on Canadian radio that included interviews with some of the homeless guys who participated. Heartbreaking.
