Answer 1

Many don’t care cause those individuals that perpetrate those deeds, for the most part, ARE NOT BLACK.
Now watch all the UNDERCOVER RACIST come out of hiding and ACCUSE ME OF BEING A RACIST. LOLOLOL.
The difference between them and me is that I don’t deny the racism that I, like ALL in this country have been covertly AND overtly taught and with the help of God Almighty,
I FIGHT IT…
…in myself and in others as well.
First you have to acknowledge it’s existence.
God blesses me that I fight against racism and discrimination of ALL KIND whenever and however I can.
You can’t do that being in denial.
To let many of White America tell it, Michael Vick and those he was in league with are the ONLY people in history to have done what he plead guilty of doing.
As I’ve stated before, EVERYTHING, WHETHER GOOD OR BAD, THAT BLACK PEOPLE DO IN THIS COUNTRY, INCLUDING DOG FIGHTING AND THE TORTURE, MUTLATING AND KILLING OF THE ANIMALS IS BLACK AMERICANS EMULATING WHITE PEOPLE….
Now watch. Somebody’s gonna say that’s not why, it’s because Vick lied to the commissioner and the Falcon’s owner B-llsh-t. B-llsh-t. B-llsh-t.
If he had told them the truth, what would they have done? Covered it up or downplayed it so that it wouldn’t get anywhere near the coverage that it’s STILL getting?
Vick made the mistake of being involved with those crimes in the first place and like EVERY WRONGDOER; he didn’t come clean right away.
Choosing that option was another mistake.
Having done that; Vick made the mistake of listening to his agent and used their lawyer that was representing the interests of the agent’s, NOT Vick.
If he had gotten a lawyer that knows how to handle those type cases, I doubt if it had gotten this far.
C’mon now. Even on TV shows they let you know that the ones that rat one out out of fear for themselves that their testimony can be impeached.
And better yet, that they try to get you to plead guilty when their case is weak and don’t have enough to convict if they go to trial.
Do you REALLY believe that “they” wanted to save the taxpayer’s money by not going into a possibly very lengthy trial?
Do ya REALLY?
If they had the evidence do you REALLY think they would have offered a plea agreement?
If Vick had fought with a better lawyer, the case probably wouldn’t have gone to trial cause BIG BUSINESS would have stepped in just like they did with all the other criminals in the NFL that didn’t do any time for the crimes they committed.
There are even some that will and have gone to the Hall Of Fame.
Morals clause?
WHAT A JOKE.
And with all the outrage about Vick and the other criminals in the NFL, I haven’t heard once that anyone was gonna stop watching football or at least stop watching or rooting for a particular team that allows criminals to play for them…NOT EVEN ME.
I USED TO BE a fan of NE back to the Jim Plunkett days. I stopped liking them after they dissed Drew Bledsoe.
I stopped rooting for Baltimore after they dissed Tony Banks.
I stopped rooting for Tampa after they dissed Tony Dungy.
I stopped being a fan of the Bronco’s after they got Elway and the press and other so-called pundits praised him for doing the things that he was doing as a QB while at the same time denigrating Randall Cunningham for scrambling and Doug Williams for throwing the ball too hard…but I STILL WATCH THEM.
With Elway it was called and still to this day, making something happen with his feet while with with Cunningham the complaint was, he leaves the pocket too much. And with Doug it was, he throws the ball to hard while with Elway and still to this very day, it was, look at the ‘zip’ he puts on the ball.
Now, amongst other things, those two qualities are very much sought after in ANY QB these days…even if his skin color were plaid. LOL.
Don’t get me wrong. Elway was a good QB that was overrated as most are that don’t respect their Olinemen, receivers and running backs enough to realize, know and understand that it is those players that make them seem a whole lot better than what they are.
Big up to Marino; Bradshaw; and those other QB’s that one would frequently hear heap praise on their fellow teammates.
It seems like I digressed; doesn’t it?
NOPE.
Many of those same fans and now new ones that have been taught the same crap as others of that era; the media and other so-called pundits now have the audacity to vilify Vick the man and denigrate his ability as a QB.
Like I said before, this is the kind of stuff that makes people from other countries dislike Americans.
Too much FAKE RIGHTEOUSNESS AND ARROGANCE.
Just check out lord god Bush and HIS DECLARATION of naming specific countries ‘EVIL’.
That’s a PRIME EXAMPLE of arrogance and self-righteousness.
And now “they” dare to speak of HONOR while they send men and women to fight and kill and or die thinking and believing that it’s for the good of Democracy. SURE.
That is true ONLY if you understand that Democracy = The Capitalistic Government of Big Bisness.
The fight is NOT AGAINST terrorism it is FOR MATERIAL GAIN.
Ultimately the case against Vick played out the way that I believe GOD wanted it to and NOT the FAKE RIGHTEOUS.
This is a humbling experience tor Mike that hopefully will make him appreciate ALL LIFE more and realize that life itself is a blessing and a privilege from God and that wealth too is a blessing and privilege from God and NOT to be used toward the detriment of other life.
And hopefully, some of us that sit and pass judgment on everyone except ourselves will look more at ourselves and know and realize and understand that although we may not do some of the wrong(s) that others may do, NONE OF US IS PERFECT.
And I have yet to hear anyone JUSTIFY Vick’s actions, ti seems more to me that most are trying to keep in the perspective that yes it was a very bad thing that he did but it doesn’t deserve persecution by the likes of those that can turn the head to other atrocities and yet vilify Vick for what he plead guilty to. And don’t tell me that “systematic” crap either.
Your ignorance of the meaning of the word shows.
Also, I’m still waiting to hear who some of these other so-called high rollers are because even if EVERY ONE OF THEM IS BLACK, I don’t want you all to keep making it sound as if Michael Vick is the only one since the beginning of time to have done this.
It is my opinion that some of the worst people in the world are the ones that within their own self-righteousness find it sooo easy to persecute another.
Persecution is in itself torture and abuse and can end up causing the death of someone.
And I just heard you FAKES say that that is what he deserves.
Now tell me.
What is it that YOU deserve?

Answer 2

Mike Vick is bad. I do not care what else is going on in the world, and I have a hard time believing that people are trying to make excuses for this guy. He did break the law! He did kill dogs for no reason! He did beat on dog fights! He did lie! Why on earth is there any person trying to condone this type of behavior.

I am sure there are other bad things going on in the world. Lets see, try some of these out.

Child Molestation.
Murder
Rape
Illegal War
Drug abuse / addiction / dealing
Steroid abuse in sports
Athletes gabling on there own sport
animal molestation / abuse

There are so many more, so does this make Mike Vick innocent because other people are doing it, or does it mean that maybe more people should be going to jail. Maybe the subject of Mike Vick should just go away, because he is done in the NFL and when he goes to jail it is over for him.

Answer 3

Crime can't be stopped simultaneously and it can't be eliminated with one arrest. There are tons of organizations nationwide that work against the cruelty towards racing greyhounds and horses. Vick getting caught hasn't and won't eradicate dogfighting all together, so how can these organizations be expected to suddenly stop abuse of greyhound and horses? The point is they are trying to do something to stop it, just like the police did something to stop Vick's dogfighting ring.

BTW, have you ever watch Animal Cops on the Animal Planet? Plenty of people get fines and sometimes go to jail for animal cruelty, (including greyhound and horse racers) but since none of them are prominent public figures, it doesn't make the national news. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it isn't happening.

And you might have made your point better if you tried some grammar, punctuation and proper spelling.

Answer 4

For most everyone else, this story ended the day that Vick copped a plea.
All of the examples that people use to try to justify Vick's actions are also appalling, but the fact that there are other things wrong in this world does not make Vick's behavior any less disgusting. And for you "pro-lifers" out there - quit comparing it to abortion. Whether you like it or not, abortion is legal in this country. If you think the laws should be changed, fine, but don't try to tie something that has nothing to do with Vick to him to further your agenda. it makes you look incredibly ignorant.

Answer 5

I think you have a fine point as long as you are not saying that Vick should be let off because other people can get away with it. That would be an ignorant comment to make.

Since I think you're not making that point, I think it has been said before, but never in a way that still made Vick look bad. People have used it a lot as a defense... "Oh Mike Vick should be let go because all these people get away with it blah blah blah." I think that's rediculous.

Ask yourself this... should Michigan players be "put down" because they cannot win? Any time there is a sport where the losing party is put to death, it is wrong in my book.

Answer 6

Yeah I do think Michael Vick was bad, and posting every animal rights propaganda website is not going to change my mind. Just because other people do bad things makes it allright for Vick.

Second we all know what goes on out in this world but to believe everything any website says no matter what side they are on or what their personal beliefs are is ignorance.

And I have a friend that works to place greyhounds in great homes so yes it is happyland for them. There are many organizations that give these animals homes. You choose to see what you want to see also. You are no different.

Answer 7

Actually, this is why I adopt dogs, and don't buy purebreed dogs. There are plenty of good dogs out there that need a good home. We can all do our part. Go to this site, adopt an ex-racer. http://www.goinghomegreyhounds.org/ This is my local one. We can all do little things to make the world better. If everybody does a little, things will get better. If we don't, and choose to ignore famous examples of abuse, like Michael Vick's, then nothing will get better. I believe Mr. Vick is contritious and will pay his price (jailtime) and may ultimately become a force of good in stopping dogfighting in America. (using his name in public announcements would be a good start)

Answer 8

so you're saying that because other people are cruel, sadistic, heartless, murderers, that it's ok for micheal vick to be one too? no one has said anything about your articles because most of us haven't heard about them. they've either been swept under the rug or they are just internet bullsh*t. micheal vick was a big star in americas favorite sport, kids adored him, women wanted to be with him, and men wanted to be like him. now we find out that he's a sick, twisted piece of sh*t who forces mans best friend to fight to the death for his entertainment. and if that's not enough, he takes the dogs that are too weak to win these death matches and repeatedly slams them on the ground until they're dead. yeah, this is a great guy you're defending here. do yourself a favor pal, that your 'poor little micheal vick' gargabe and shove it up your *ss, try finding a new hero son.

Answer 9

You may have a point with the horses and greyhounds but what it comes down to is what he did is illegal. But I think the biggest problem is that he was bank rolling the operation. who really cares? he was not very good in my opinion. he did nothing for the falcons. they can keep firing the coach but vick will not go to the playoffs let alone the super bowl. I do not think that this situation hurt the nfl. I will still watch. GO NINERS!!!!!!!!

Answer 10

Those links you supplied are to extremist organizations that lie and distort the truth. Vick is bad. He is gone. He is not coming back. Don't waste your time defending him. It is stupid!

Answer 11

so because other people are sum bags
that makes Vick less of a Sum Bag??
on and I adopted a racing Greyhound
and I still think Vick Is Scum bag
