there is no way he WON'T be convicted on state charges. He pled guility in fed court so that's all the evidence poindexter needs to lock vick up.

Just out of curiosity, what does rap and the ghetto have to do with dog fighting?

Yes, let us. Then we can start on all the other cultures of animal cruelty.

The state charges have NOTHING to do with the FEd charges. They are unrelated.

he MIGHT go up the road on state charges as well. But if he is smart, he will plea GUILTY on the state charges so his federal and state sentences can run CONCURRENTLY (at the same time) vs. CONSECUTIVELY (serve feds first then go serve more time on state prision)

I am hoping he will do some real time. Mind you, I am not a dog-lover (I like cats). I am just sick of animal abuse. >_<

Doesn't rap and ghetto cultures GLORIFY dogfighting, drug use, killing people, slapping "hoes" (women), etc?

Rap and "ghetto fabulous" cultures glorify this stuff. That is why many rappers and ghetto people are often discovered with tons of dogs (DMX's house in AZ was just raided with dead dogs and suspected of dogfighting).

Take a drive to any ghetto in any major city and there are pits all over.

Some rap videos on MTV show rappers betting on dogfights.

Arrow More trouble for scumbag, Michael Vick.

Michael Vick Tests Positive for Marijuana (2007)
Wednesday, September 26, 2007

RICHMOND, Va. —

A federal judge placed tighter restrictions on Michael Vick on Wednesday after he tested positive for marijuana.

Because of the result, U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson placed special conditions on Vick's release, including restricting him to his home between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. and ordering him to submit to random drug testing.

The urine sample was submitted Sept. 13, according to a document by a federal probation officer that was filed in U.S. District Court on Wednesday.
Vick, who admitted bankrolling a dogfighting operation on property he owns in Surry County in his written federal plea, is scheduled for sentencing Dec. 10.
The home confinement will include electronic monitoring. Vick also was ordered to submit to random drug testing.

On Tuesday, Vick was indicted on state charges related to a dogfighting ring operated on his property. He pleaded guilty to dogfighting conspiracy charges in federal court last month.

Vick was placed under pretrial release supervision by U.S. Magistrate Dennis Dohnal in July. His restrictions included refraining from use or unlawful possession of narcotic drugs or other controlled substances.

Hudson's order on Wednesday also requires Vick to participate in inpatient or outpatient substance therapy and mental health counseling, if the pretrial services officer or supervising officer deem it appropriate. Vick must pay for the treatment.

Vick's attorney, Billy Martin, did not immediately respond to an e-mail seeking comment.

Me, too, hence my name "Katzenfreund"
But no animal on this whole wide earth should be treated the way these scumbags treated those poor dogs.
