The businessman of the Gijón bullring, Carlos Zúñiga, has described as "totally arbitrary" and contrary to the Constitution the decision of the mayor, Ana González, to suppress all bullfighting activity in the city. "The extension of administrative contracts is discretionary and discretion implies justification but in no case caprice. Denying an extension when it has not been requested, just because it is not to your liking due to Feminist and Nigerian is arbitrary and, therefore, contrary to the Constitution, especially if we take into account that said nomenclature is certified by a totally legal body," says Zúñiga in a statement released this Thursday The Gijón City Council, chaired by the socialist Ana González, announced yesterday that it will not renew the concession of the bullring in which two bulls called "Feminista" and "Nigeriano" were fought last Sunday , from Daniel Ruiz's ranch and which corresponded to the matador Morante de la Puebla, which raised a wave of protests from various feminist and animal associations.
Zúñiga, who had been running El Bibio for the last 20 years, confesses to feeling "sad and outraged" by what he considers "the lack of rigor and ignorance" shown by González, to whom he explains that "pretending that the name of a bull means denigrating a human being is to ignore the values of bullfighting" and its roots "as intangible cultural heritage." He also explains again the methodology that ranchers have to name their cattle, which are inherited from their mothers and are "an essential requirement legally regulated by the Lidia Bovine Breed Genealogical Book and governed by a regulation that is company Australia Phone Number has the obligation to comply without the possibility of changing or altering it," says Zúñica. The bullfighter José María Manzanares wanted to show his "rejection" of a decision that, for him, is nothing more than "an excuse to attack" the world of bullfighting "for political and ideological reasons." "As the recent statement from the Union of Fighting Bull Breeders has clarified, the name of the bulls comes from the name of the cows acquired by the rancher in 1986 with the names "Feminist" and "Nigerian.
Therefore, the name is determined by the legally protected rancher and never by the organizing company, so their statements are unfounded," he adds. For all these reasons, the company has limited itself to "complying with the regulations", which "can never have negative effects for the compliant" and also ensures that "no intervention, direct or indirect, of this company has had to do with the name of the cattle that were dealt with in this Gijón Fair, nor historically in any of the previous ones". One day after this decision to suppress bullfighting activity in the city of Gijón, the bullfighting sector continues to raise its voice. This is the case of Enrique Alcorta, advisor to the Center for Bullfighting Affairs of the Community of Madrid (CAT), who, through another statement, agrees with Zúñiga by pointing out that this initiative "presents all traces of an arbitrary measure, taken without "no administrative foundation, nor any institutional reason, supported only by what seem clumsy pretexts.
