*****The start of Indrajit’s message to Pedro Sanchez*****

Good Morning, Prime Minister Sanchez :

In 2024, you suppressed the national prize for matadors; for this, please accept my sincere gratitude. I write to inform you of an email below I sent to your national legislators. Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Indrajit

PS: The content of my email to your congressional deputies is the following.

“You are an honorable representative of Spain’s citizens. With my due respect for you and for your country, please allow me to ask you the following questions, as a fellow human being:

1) Do you consider bloodshed in full public view, irrespective of who the blood comes from and for what reason, nonviolent and lawful?

2) Does a legal framework that permits public bloodshed fulfill its basic mission of maintaining law and order by preventing violence?

3) What can such public bloodshed do for children?

Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Indrajit”
