    Default WARNING: Cruelty to Animals: Michael Vick, WTF....??

    I know there are allot of animal lovers here.....

    ...and I just need a quick place to rant because I get so furious when I see or hear something about Michael Vick..

    WTF was he thinking, and his friends. To do what they did to dogs is still unthinkable to me, and, makes me ill.

    I was in shock when I read the press release about the dog-fighting, but, was ill when I read what they did to the dogs if they lost.....

    Click on the link if you'd like, it really is horrifying,




    I don't care who this is, black / white, famous/ not famous, etc, to do this to another living animal for your own amusement is sick, and I hope they send the full force of the US Government afterhim.....

    I read a different online article about it. I didn't read the one you posted, it's early yet now, & sometimes I just can't handle it. Horrific is correct. What's suprising to me (I guess it shouldn't be) how someone with so much going for them would stoop to such a low end. I hope everyone involved get the maximum punishment, & he should get suspended too.
    If I remember correctly, very recently there was another dog fighting ring busted, ? in Chicago area ? I'm not sure.
    A new book I'm currently reading: "Just A Dog, Understanding Animal Cruelty & Ourselves", by Arnold Arluke, a Sociology Prof.

    Didn't he say when the story broke that he had *no idea whatsoever* that it was going on? Asshole.

    He's a douche. He has already lost all his endorsement deals...but he NFL hasnt dropped him yet. There is a petition goin g to the NFL commissioner to get rid of him:

    I hope he loses EVERYTHING and gets strung up by hus fucking balls while dying the death of a thousand cuts. And afer each cut, I get to rub salt on him.

    Seriously...there are a lot of things I can say whatever to when it comes to stupid shit people do....but NOT animal abuse. NO.

    hate him, hate the "sport". I have to watch my puppers like a hawk because it happens around here. People steal others dogs to use them as bait, how sick is that?
    As a friend once said, Vick should start his own fight club where he and his buddies can beat the crap out of each other. I don't care if humans want to beat eachother up, but don't force "animals" to do it.
    Ugh, humans make me ill sometimes.
    Please don't lick me, it tickles..

    I was infuriated when I read this. Really, just pissed off to no end. I doubt Vick has any remorse at all. No respect for life. Disguisting. And we idolize these people because they are pro athletes, versus the true heroes of this world.

    You can also post on the humane societies myspace blog about it...and they have other petitions and letter that can be sent. They also have a link where you can make a donation to help take care of the dogs that were rescued.

    EXACTLY!!! There is a pit bull rescue group where I live and they just had a car and dog wash to raise money for the puppers. The stories they had to tell were so sad. One dog owner can't allow his dog around other dogs and just was able to allow it around people after having her for TWO years. Ugh! I was glad to meet some other rascue pups that are doing well, they were at the wash. None to please to get in the kiddie pool, but they seemed to be adjusting well.
    It's morons like this that give the breed a bad name.

    I see from this story, he is supposed to go before a no-nonsense judge.

    dogs that either lost matches or did not perform well in test fights. After a March 2003 loss by a female pit bull, codefendant Purnell Peace, "after consulting with Vick," electrocuted the animal. In April, prosecutors allege, Vick, Peace, and Quanis Phillips, "executed approximately 8 dogs that did not perform well in 'testing' sessions." These animals, the indictment claims, were killed "by various methods, including hanging, drowning, and slamming at least one dog's body to the ground."
    OH MY GOD!!!!

    I am lost for words!

    yes, the schmuck that he is said that he doesn't stay at the house, that his cousins or some family members are the ones who stay there, then ofcourse the neighbors come out saying they see him/talk to him often at that property....

    Nike has delayed the distribution of his latest shoe, which was due out this month. However they have not terminated his endorsement deal. I suspect even if his trial dates allow him to play this year, there will be demonstrations outside and maybe even inside the stadia of all road games. The NFL is too image conscious to allow his continued participation if it is harming the league's image (meaning revenue, of course). He will probably "voluntarily" step aside as to not be a further distraction to his team or league, but his $120 million contract will stay in effect throughout until the legal resolution.

    As much as I I'll probably get flamed for this, and as guilty everything sounds, we cannot make a judgement until the trial.

    Personally, do I think he did, oh hells yes, but, he hasn't been found guilty, therefore, his team, the NFL has to treat him as such.

    Wouldn't it be fitting if he were electrocuted? Perhaps by some anonymous servant of justice. Is that awful?

    ^I think it would be mroe fitting to put him in a cage with some of these dogs trained to be so vicious. THat'd be justice in my book.
