I've killed mice before-- I've killed them because they can carry disease and because they are causing damage. But if they were doing nothing to me, I'd leave them alone. But using a mousetrap in your house is exactly the wrong analogy. Here's the right one:
People breed mice, taking care to keep them wild so that they will put on a good show. Then, they place them in a cage and stick them with needles until they are terrified and fighting for their lives. Then you taunt them for as long as possible before stabbing them with a knife.
See the difference between those two? The first person is killing because, unfortunately, it is unsanitary and possibly unsafe (chewing wires) to not kill. The second person is killing because he is a sick, twisted worthless piece of garbage that should be tossed in a pound-my-a$$ prison with fat, hairy lifers.
Bull fighters and their fans belong to the second category, not the first.
