Probably folks from Emhouse, TX. They seem to like their chicken fights over there.

I believe it's the Taco Palenque in Cotulla that used to have a brief history of the cockfighting on one of their walls. I think it said a couple of the Founding Father's were cocksmen

You beat me to it. Definitely not something im into at all...but everything is relative. I think those cocks are treated well while they are raised. Theyre usually fed well and some will even grow really attached to their cocks and overly shower them with love and affection, constantly petting them and stroking them. I dont know. Getting rubbed and cared for seems like a better life than those chickens crammed in warehouses and cages.

Everything is realative. Cockfighting isnt my thing at all, but all things considered who am i to judge what people do with their cocks? I thought we were in America after all.

Still goes on in East Texas, and not too hard to find a dog fight either if you know a few folks.

From what I read locally , the Sheriff's department was not targeting this activity, They were called out by a neighbor reporting " suspicious " activity.

When they arrived , it was obvious what was going on. I still have seen no names released or charges filed.

I am just upset that I was not invited( sarcasm)

Neighbor about 1/4 miles from me raises fighting cocks and says that he can’t raise them fast enough. Sells all the birds that he can raise. Is currently paying a couple of other people to raise birds for him because he has run out of space. He asked me if I wanted to raise some birds for him, but they require a lot of tlc for the price he offered me.

This^^^ but I will admit I used to go to the chicken ([censored]) fights in Jal N.M. when I lived there. Lots of money exchanged hands there. Good times.
