I'm not saying it is ok to put dogs to fight but people in the media and in general have been usung the word "Animals" when they talk about the cruelty so are innocent deers not animals? Although bears are wild most of the ones being shot and killed are innocent. I could understand if it's going to be eaten but poeple kill deer just to hang up their antlers and stuff. Does anyone agree or can bring up an argument?

I guess i struk a nerve, but anyway, Again i am not justifying what he did, i love dogs too but i also love animals and i hate seeing these animals get shot, and i eat meat yes, but No not all animals that are hunted are eaten. I must agree a little that there would be alot more deer on the road and stuff but that doesn't apply to all animals that are hunted. So before we all attack M. Vick for this look at yourselfs and see what cruelness you all allow in this society

Well, i see there's alot of people that still doesn't understand the question i was asking, i thank the people that gave their opinion on this without the negative bull*$!t. By the way i am not a vegetarian nor i am a animal activist nor am i obsessed with M. Vick as a matter of fact i had a big delicious burger from 5 Guys for lunch today so i'm not knocking what hunters do, i just didn't understand why people are so quick to bash this guy when they'res animals THAT WE DON'T EAT that get treated with cruelty. For the people that are justifying how quick hunters kill other animals compared to the slow torture of the dogs, that doesn't cut it. My initial point was the kill, period. Doesn't matter how quick from a gun shot or a slow torture. Example, is it ok if you kill a person quicker by using a gun than to torture them the way the dogs were?

I'm not a hunter or even a big fan of it, but dogs are domestic animals bred to be companions to humans. Dogs depend on us. What Michael Vick did was the ultimate betrayal to dogs. That's the difference.

Your question is ok, dont be burdened by all the negative people answering.... but the way you hunt is a clean kill. No suffering. If in fact you shoot a deer/bear and they dont die right away, then they got shot where they DO die right away, and quickly... theres little to no suffering.
Having dogs fight each other for a humans amusement is not ok... what M Vick did was not tolerable. If a dog was not "adequate" to fight then he killed them by hanging/ drowning. NOT a clean kill. That is suffering for those animals... obviously physically but mentally as well.
He deserves what he got.

In my humble opinion this guy got of light. Dog fighting is illegal and disgusting Hunting for pleasure if unfortunatly legal but also disgusting.Only a sadist can get pleasure from the needless killing of wild animals Its no excuse for Americans to say "well it happens in other countries" Does that make it right. ? Michael Vick was lucky. If I had been the judge he would have got 5 years minimum.

Technically shooting deer and bear for the "heck of it is not legal" but who's gonna know. They allow deer hunting for population control, because deer are everywhere and keep attacking cars. Hunters take that deer and sell the meat, they don't just leave it there. If we couldn't hund deer,they would be everywhere. That's why its allowed, and they have certain seasons for it. Michael Vick was just plain being cruel to animals, that bastard.

Whoa! ok, there is fairly a important volume of distinction. i do no longer trust the "canine are pets" concern: they are all animals, they are all sentient beings with a real to stay. yet... canine scuffling with is the epitome of merciless. 2 the two matched canine (or maybe one is enhanced) bypass head to head and combat for his or her lives. they are the two heavily injured, and it fairly is a gradual, nasty adventure of soreness and terror for the two canine. canine skilled to be advise are additionally advise to human beings, and supply their species a nasty call. the folk who watch the canine are in it for the money. They manage the canine badly and want them to get harm. If a canine loses it fairly is flogged. Deer looking is while somebody is going out into the wilds, into the international of the deer, with a gun. He respects nature and knows the way it works. He has to examine with regard to the deer and study monitoring qualifications. it fairly is the looking it is the relaxing section. The loss of existence is rapid, controlled and performed via a stable shot - no longer a canine it fairly is scared and scuffling with for its existence so in basic terms needs out. The deer is eaten and all areas of it are used. it fairly is respected. The lifeless canine is given no admire. in my opinion i do unlike the two, yet canine scuffling with isn't even close to to ethical. Deer scuffling with, a minimum of, i can partly understand. yet evaluating them is like evaluating a petty thief with a serial rapist. canine scuffling with is terrible. it fairly is not any longer something to do with ethnic minorities. the reality they hang the deer's head on the wall does no longer count to the deer. it fairly is an indication of admire to the style of captivating, elegant creature. the reason they do no longer do an identical with the canine's head is as a results of fact it fairly is crushed to a bloody mush and ripped aside - it fairly is complicated to tell one component of the canine from the different, and no areas are quite adequate afterwards to hang up.

There are seasons for hunting the wild animals you mentioned, as well as a hunting license is required.
Dogs are not wild animals, they are domenticated. They are pets that live in ones homes.
There are laws against what Vic did and he will serve his time. He took resonsibility for his actions, like the man he is.

Are you that dense? When's the last time you ate a dog? Deers are hunted for food and to control their population., They are not domesticated as dogs are.

There is a difference between getting a clean kill and making something suffer for your own amusement.

I think it would be OK to hunt deer if we would give the deer some guns :)
I think it's wrong to have dog fights, but they are just dogs. Some rapists and pedophiles don't get 23 months for what they do. It's unbelievable. Considering in other countries animal fighting is part of their customs!
Some countries eat dog and cats!

I agree with you to a point. The dog fighting part of Michael Vick's issue was wrong, and the way the animals were killed were horrible, but you're right: Was there a big difference in shooting a harmless dear and mounting his head, and killing a dog and burying him.
