Is that about right? Calf roping was banned somewhere because a calf died?
I think with reality TV, Survivor and Jersey Shore that society's 'social mores' are trending more toward increasing public and televised torture for entertainment if anything.

I think people are open to having humans being tortured on reality TV cause they sign up for it. They 'deserve' it. (and they kinda do, hah!)
Animals, children, and people caught in wars don't really count. Or at least, people PRETEND to be concerned about those things.
