Jose Luis Ochoa, 35, died Sunday at a regional hospital of a cut to a right calf, according to the Kern County Sheriff`s Department. Ochoa and others initially fled after Tulare County deputies raided the site of the alleged cockfight near the county line. Officers found five dead roosters, but did not initially issue any citations or make any arrests, the newspaper says." In the United States, cockfighting is illegal in all 50 states. It`s a brutal blood sport between two roosters in a ring called a cockpit. There is a thriving cockfighting scene in Southern California, because the penalties for engaging in this bloody "sport" are less severe than those in neighboring states. For the sake of the chickens (the fowl not the cowardly bastards who engage in this criminal enterprise) the penalties must be stiffened. At the end of almost every cockfighting event, the dead carcasses of roosters silently testify to the cruel and bloody nature of this "sport." It is poetic justice that this time it was a man who was killed, and not a rooster. When the cops showed up at the cockfighting event Ochoa chickened out and ran , but he later died at a hospital. God bless the rooster who killed Ochoa, he deserves to live out the rest of his days in a farm. Edited on 2/8/2011 10:50 PM by yumnuk3.

RE: Rooster Kills Man in Cockfight

Origins of cockfighting

Cockfighting was a pastime in the Indus Valley Civilization by 2000 BC The Encyclopædia Britannica (2008)—on the origins of cockfighting—holds:

The game fowl is probably the nearest to the Indian red jungle fowl (Gallus gallus), from which all domestic chickens are believed to be descended.
The sport was popular in ancient times in India, China, Persia, and other Eastern countries and was introduced into Greece in the time of Themistocles (c. 524–460 BC). For a long time the Romans affected to despise this "Greek diversion," but they ended up adopting it so enthusiastically that the agricultural writer Columella (1st century AD) complained that its devotees often spent their whole patrimony in betting at the side of the pit.

You contact me the day that ever happens in R.D. The world will end. The saying goes that "things always happen in threes." I don't know if anyone else has heard this old adage, but if you own a rooster, you better be extremely careful.
