If Michael Vick was White, I guarantee it whould not be such a big deal with this dog fighting?

Question

The media is just waiting for successful black people to do something wrong. They loved it when Kobe Bryant raped that dirty white girl who had semen for 5 different guys inside her. They can wait for LeBron James to screw up. Who gives a crap about those wild dogs. They cannot be pets anyway. They are killers. All those rotweilers should be put to sleep. Anyone agree?

After reading all of your answers, I agree. I don't think it's a race issue. My apologies to anyone I offended. It was ignorant on my part to think that way. Thanks for all your answers. I am definitely NOT a racist. I wish racism would end.

Answer 1

They are looking at his celeb status. not his race

Answer 2

Dude you must be black! Why does everything have to be a black and white issue? No one said if Paris Hilton was black she wouldn't go to jail!! Right OK maybe bad example but not everything is black and white! What he did was wrong period. The guys he was with could not buy that house or income the bet or furnish the dogs. He is guilty and should get more then he probably will.

Just like Paris he has money so he will get less than ANY WHITE BLACK BLUE GREEN OR WHAT EVER COLOR person would...see Paris Hilton!

Also those dogs are not wild someone made them, killer dogs! He is a rotten MAN as should be punished!! Severely!!

Answer 3

oh brother..I think youre misunderstanding some key issues..you need to look past race....And if you feel strongly about how blacks are treated...why are you spending all your energy defending millionaires?

So support the common man that got taken advantage of b/c he was "not white" Mike Vick doesnt need your help. Kobe Bryant can get away with anything anyway! LeBron James might screw up but so what?

Answer 4

So are you saying that a white person can do anything and the media does not pick up on it? What about the Duke Lacross rape case? The media was "convicting" the players who were white, the accuser was black. It ended up being a false accusation. What about Paris Hilton, Britney Spears? The media is waiting for ANY CELEBRITY to screw up. The public does not care. Some people get extremely offended by any kind of acts of violence towards any kind of animals. What about Don Imus? The media crucified him for a comment he said. He lost his job.

Answer 5

michael vick is a role model, he is a professional athlete. people look up to paris hilton and lindsay lohan (why, i don't know) and they were both made examples of...in case you haven't noticed, they're both white.

i happen to own a rottweiler who is the most loving dog that i have ever owned and i have had plenty. have you ever heard of nature vs. nurture? it's all about how they're raised and for the record those dogs were pitbulls that michael vick raised to kill.

quit pulling the race card in instances where it doesn't apply, i agree that racism in america is not gone but is well on it's way and it's people like you who are keeping racism alive. i bet you're the person who supports the use of the n-word when used in rap songs (and of course with an "a" at the end instead of the "er) when in fact both versions need to be abolished.

Answer 6

Quit using the race card!! That is getting old. Everytime someone breaks the law or does anything illegal, the first thing you do is go after the race.....take your OJ case and be happy. He used the race card and got off, and this one will too. Good day!

If you are not racist, then you would not have compared him being black to him being white and getting a lesser punishment if he were white. By you saying that to begin with, you let everyone know that you are racist. Maybe someone else will believe that, but most of us are not that d*** stupid!!!

Answer 7

Oh yea the MAN is keeping the Black guy down. Don’t give me that bull crap!! It’s so sad to see some people can't see that this is 2007 not back when black people we enslaved. I don’t care if your white, yellow, black, brown green, orange, purple or blue if you commit a crime act you’re going to jail its plane and simple. Get over your self and grow a freaking brain! You said those rotweilers should be put to sleep they are killers. Well they had to be trained to do that they don’t just grow up and decide to fight and kill other dogs and possible people. People train them to do that. And you want to bring up black people getting scotch free why not talk about O.J Simpson and how he is walking around a free man. So don’t even go their. That’s so stupid

Answer 8

I do not agree with you and I knew it was a matter of time before someone turned it into a race issue. I supposed you think Micheal Jackson was also railroaded because of his race??? Was anyone crying racism when his albums were being purchased by EVERY race and he was making hundreds of millions of dollars?? Was Micheal Vick crying racism before he got into this trouble??? Come on man, lets stop playing the race card over every damn thing so we can all start getting along. It is getting really really boring!!

Answer 9

No I don't agree. It would not make one bit of difference if Vick was white. If this were Peyton Manning, it would be equally shocking and deplorable. Treating animals that way is despicable. The fact that you don't even recognize that fact is disturbing and speaks to a serious flaw in your character and to your up-bringing. Right is right and wrong is wrong. Stop making the whole world black and white because it isn't.

Answer 10

This has nothing to do with him being (Black), what he was doing to those dogs was wrong. Besides the real issues is why would a man with 130 million dollar contract, 15 million a year from Nike. Put himself in such a situation?

Answer 11

Nope, I don't think I agree with any of your statements. I don't think Micheal Vick's color has anything to do with it being a big deal. I think it has more to do with him being a role model for children. Rotweilers are not killers unless trained to be so. You are descriminating against the dogs as much as you are against nonblack ppl. And you call us racist?
