23 months!


Michael Vick a.k.a the worlds dumbest football player has been sentenced to 23 months behind bars for dog fighting. The former NFL star admitted that he bankrolled a dog fighting operation. He also admitted to killing 6 to 8 dogs that did not perform well in test fights.


I cannot understand how any person can do this. Are we that sad of a species that we enjoy watching two animals be torn to pieces? I love how we get to decide the fate of these animals. What bothers me the most about this is that this guy didn't need the money. He had a NFL contract and endorsement deals yet he needed to do this. Was it simply the enjoyment or was it to employ his buddies. the operation included "the execution of under performing dogs by electrocution, drowning, hanging and other means."


I am in no means a member of any animal rights groups but this is insane. I disagree with the notion that eating meat is cruel or one should not have a fur coat if they so choose to have one. I am against this type of brutality. What was the purpose or executing the dogs in this manor. Its not like they were setting an example for the other dogs. This man is just sick. He is a disgrace to the human race and gives other really rich people a bad name. Dog fighting is almost understandable if you have children to feed or your mother needs a doctor. But as a rich mans sport its despicable.
I believe that more should be written about the actions of this jerk.
