I'm glad to hear your Father stays active and he looks very healthy.

Cockfighting is considered a sport in many areas and is still in the US.

It's frowned on but still continues.

Your Father should be proud of his accomplishments.

you must be proud

you don't have to be sorry

Patsy Dog fighting Is Illegal In the UK yet it continues behind closed doors...

I have just always failed to see the attraction of watching creatures tear lumps out of each other....

Then my animal charities and my hard earned earned donations are left to pick up the pieces.
