Rich..... I can't be botherdd to explain it twice.... Read my previous reply and THEN tell me why I can't have Gladiatorial Combat back as a public sport!
When you manage to explain why Gladiatorial Combat should remain 'banned' BUT still manage not to ban the TT in your reasoning.... then I'll continue this discussion!
Please note:
1) Gladiators were NOT slaves and were NOT forced to fight, we well treated(and well medicated) and usually survived to fight MANY times! Death was a RARITY, not the norm in the ring!!
2) Gladiators were VOLUNTEERS who also thought that they should be allowed to choose to fight for public entertainment..... just like IOM TT Riders! They also would have hated 'Health and Safety'.
