Police raid cockfighting operation in West Oak Cliff (Dallas)

DALLAS — Along a gravel driveway in West Oak Cliff, drivers shielded their faces, shy to speak.

Their walk of shame led them to a gated property at 4747 North Counts Boulevard.

<<<snip>>>

The roadway leads to the property where Dallas police raided an illegal cockfighting ring late Saturday night. Twenty people were apprehended, but many others fled on foot.

On Sunday morning, they came back for their cars... and there are a lot of them.

Dead horses on the property. $500 to retrieve your vehicle for those attending the event.

Seems fair to me.

for their cars? Or to get out of jail? I don't know why not. I'd WAYYYYY rather pay to see a bunch of animal killers and blood sports enthusiasts injure and kill each other than get innocent animals involved.

And to the stupid guy who thought that those who were "only" watching should not be punished? Well, that sort of language is inappropriate in this forum. But it involves a short length of 1" gas pipe, a towel, bucket of water, a battery with cables and someone like me to preside.

Blood sports brings out the populist in me rather than the progressive.
