What do you think about the Micheal Vick indictment charges?

Please express your feelings and emotions towards dog fighting.

Now Newport News is in the news instead since that's where he's from

Ah, good ol' Bad Newz, I

it.

Seriously though...anyone who takes pleasure out of these dogfights would probably also take pleasure out of gladiator fights...so barbaric.

I'll resist the urge to go on a long rant about the horrors of dogfighting..

You just really have to be worried that people that enjoy this stuff live amomg us

tpsreports2424 · 07-30-2007, 09:21 PM

I know, i didnt realize it that there were a lot of other cases about dogfighting

A stor · 07-31-2007, 10:31 AM

Being an animal lover, it sickens me. But, as mentioned above. What is really scary. Is there are people who find this as entertaining.

tpsreports2424 · 07-31-2007, 04:29 PM

^i know

unico · 07-31-2007, 04:30 PM

i think dog fighting is sick. i don't understand the fascination of purposely starving/abusing/neglecting animals so you can watch them kill each other.

starsgoblue · 07-31-2007, 05:47 PM

I think it is absolutley horrible that someone can possibly consider it something akin to a "hobby". I have no forgiveness for anyone horrible enough to participate in this. The thought of dogfighting seriously brings tears to my eyes.

Sidenote: Anyone ever needing to find a proper home for a pet or unexpected litter of kittens or whatever...Do NOT put "free to a good home" in your classified ads--these dirtbags looks for ads like this so they can get "practice bait"...furthering these horrible activities.

Exactly.

This makes me ill.

Is this the same Michael Vick who either posted here a few years back in his (supposed) college days or the one who someone actually bothered impersonating during the said college days? Quick Vick - either the username of this Michael Vick, or the screen name of the member here? I keep thinking our bvs was one who actually brought this up in public once... The person posting here was rather offensive in many ways.

I've been googling the story and it sounds repulsive.

LJT · 08-01-2007, 06:44 AM

People will always be doing such things...Hare coursing still happens a lot round here, fox hunting was only banned a few years ago, dog fighting I believe occurs in Belfast quite a bit.

What bothers me the most about the whole issue is that there are people out there who:

1 - Don't care and feel he is being given a "raw deal" and he should be allowed to just play football

2 - There are some who are trying to make this a race issue because he's black.

C'mon people, it's about torturing and killing animals here, it has nothing to with the color of his skin...

Idiots.

anitram · 08-01-2007, 10:47 AM

The whole story is revolting.

MrsSpringsteen · 08-01-2007, 10:57 AM

Dog fighting is much more prevalent than people realize, there is info available on the HSUS web site. Vick is just a high profile case-but anyone who would do such things to animals/know it was going on and do nothing and support such things financially needs to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Torturing and killing animals in such a heinous way is not a sport. Many serial killers started out by torturing and killing animals when they were kids. At least people can attempt to defend themselves, animals are defenseless. Especially when tied to a "rape rack", for example.

And I think it's pathetic to inject race into this, my feelings about him have nothing whatsoever to do with his race. I will wait until all the facts come out in court or wherever, but yes I did sign the HSUS petitions to the NFL and Nike and I am proud to say that I did.

Hinder · 08-01-2007, 01:46 PM

Yeah, unfortunately, you're going to get those people who cry foul every time a Black person gets his or her hand slapped for screwing up. It's pitiful, but there it is. Some Black people believe they should never, ever, EVER get in trouble because 'We are an oppressed people! It's not our fault!'. I have to roll my eyes and sigh, as a Black person, and go, "But when do we grow up and take responsibility for ourselves? Yes, life is tough because of our skin color - the KKK and its ilk is still out there - but why make it worse by deliberately hanging on to ignorance?' But then, I'm a strange duck by all accounts. Don't mind me.

Same with a lot of dogs that are stolen. They're used as bait. Same with a lot of the pit bulls themselves that don't end up "tough enough"
