And how many people in VA have been shot between his trial and his birthday?

Vick is scum. Anyone that celebrates him or even wants to let the world know he's from this area isn't too bright. He's an embarrassment to the Hampton Roads area.

Well since someone bumped this year old thread I think it should be noted Michael Vick will be allowed to return to NFL. Good to hear considering he has served his time and making contributions.

Default Carry Me Back to Old Virginia

Does anyone realize the state of Virginia sells foxhunting license plates? Saw one yesterday and was appalled. Remember, the authorities were on Vick's property looking for drugs and just happened upon a dogfighting ring. Had Vick been training dogs to rip apart foxes rather than domesticated dogs he would have not been doing anything illegal. So please spare me the moral criticism of Vick. Either condemn all forms of animal fighting and go protest against the state of Virginia for profiting off of foxhunting (please don't forget the castration signs) or stop making moral judgements of people. I don't believe either will happen.

Maybe you should throw out some dogs for him to electrocute or slame to the ground just for old times' sake. NO WAIT I know.......there's a secret party afterwards for that right? After all, what he did wasn't HIS fault, it was yours (bad environment and all).

Okay is Vick a suspect in this shooting? The same thing could happen at any birthday party, so don't throw birthday parties at all?

I'm sure that if fox hunters were drowning and hanging dogs, they would get arrested too.
The main point here is that the guy who got shot was a co-defendant of Vick's in his trial and a term of his probation is that he is forbidden to have contact with him. Yet, this guy was one of the hosts of Vick's party. Michael should be returning to jail for 18 more months and thrown out of the NFL for good.

Default This makes no sense!

Dogfighting is really horrible. But to you folks who are making a big deal out of this Vick thing, do you eat meat? Have you seen the living conditions and the slaughter of farm animals? It is really horrendous! Yet still we go on munching on burgers and bacon.... where is the outcry and outrage for those poor animals? Hypocrisy is what it is.

Vick just proves what we all know......

You can take a thug out of the ghetto, put him in a suit, and pay him several million.

But he's still nothing more than a thug.

Hey Borsig gets it. Hardly surprising how most others replying don't, or that most of the replies are so thick with stupid you'd need a steak knife to cut through it.
Isn't it great how a guy who killed, tortured, and brutalized thousands of dogs in ways so sick it was medieval is making millions to play a game? He's a pro athlete, so look the other way and pretend he's anything more than sub-human slime. You go Vick! You go Hampton Roads! Word up cuz, yo etc!

:barf:
