You have said that as long as someone knows the risks of what they’re doing you won’t stop them.[quote=“Traykar, post:35, topic:50603”]
If they know the risks and want to do it anyway, I’m not going to stop them.

If everyone thought like this than I one would stop the orphan sport.
Let me put this is a simpler way. Hypothetical Orphan Bloodsports are not the same thing a boxing. Therefore, I have differing opinions on both subjects. People are free to force orphans to participate in bloodsports, but at the risk of going to jail or getting beat up by concerned citizens. While I could care less about people punching each other, forcing people to fight to the death is not the same thing.
Actually I said that it allowed orphans to fight to the death. I never said they were forced to do it. It’s the orphans free will to decide if they want to fight or not.
I’m pretty sure that it wasn’t hypothetical Orphan bloodsports, but okay. If this very unlikely hypothetical situation did arise, I wouldn’t go put a stop to it? Why? For one, if for whatever reason that they want to fight more than they want to live, they by golly, these are people that I don’t want to be messing with. It’s their lives to lose.
You know what? I was wrong, hypothetical Orphan bloodsports and suicide are indeed bad things we should stop. Those things still aren’t boxing. People are indeed free to have hypothetical Orphan bloodsports, but at the risk of having normal people like myself being opposed to it. Boxing isn’t that though.
