An anti-bullfight protestor celebrates outside the Catalan parliament after a voting session to ban bullfights in the Spanish region, in Barcelona, July 28, 2010. Lawmakers dealt the death blow to bullfighting in Catalonia on Wednesday, outlawing the centuries-old blood sport for the first time in a mainland region of Spain. Under the ban, which would come into effect in 2012, the last active bullring La Monumental in Catalonia's capital, Barcelona, would shut down, as would the remaining few elsewhere in the region.
