Spare me.. did he do something wrong by torturing animals? Yes.

Do you eat meat? Do you hunt? Do you know what either activity does to animals?

Don't get your panties in a wad. I was messin with ya. I don't hold the dog-fighting against Vick. He was scum before that. If you think I have an animal rights issue with Vick, you are barking up the wrong tree.

Come one man, even a hunter doesn't pit an animal against another then torture it before he eats it. Dying isn't hell, being tortured is. That's not a comparison at all.

Vick is a bum of a QB and his behavior helps stack the attitudes against him. He's the luckiest fool in the world; he'll be guaranteed a high paying job, despite how strangers on internet forums feel about him.

Maybe the "internet strangers" crying about him on a fan forum are the fools.. since he's the one with the high paying job and who is able to continue to do what he loves to do.

..and if you don't think animals who are shot suffer, i don't know what to tell you. You must think every time an animal gets shot by a hunter its like a video game.. instant kill, right?

Yes, that's kind of my point in both directions. People fighting and insulting each other over this guy who wouldn't spare a snot for them in any way shape or form.

There's a reason dog fighting is outlawed and hunting isn't. Think it out.

Because all laws are completely sensible right?

So you're telling me no animals that are hunted suffer, is that correct?

No. But I see you'll stretch reason to any length to defend this guy. Have fun.

As i see that you don't seem to wish to simply answer the question.

Since you won't just answer.. i'll take that as you feel that animals don't suffer from being hunted.. and completely dismiss your future opinions on the topic because of that.

Dog fighting and hunting are completely different. I don't particularly agree with either but Vick did way more than kill. Vick drowned those dogs, showed them a or world of nothing but pain and literally made them wish for death. Anyone that does that is a dick f*ck and it should be a tell tale sign tat he does NOT have the mental stability to hold a job in fast food let alone the NFL

'No' constitutes an answer Roy. Sorry you missed it.

Shhh It's okay. Moral equivalence is necessary to advance the adoration of idols.

He made the dogs suffer.. just like people who hunt animals make them suffer. Its not the same activity, but the end result to the animals is similar. Both suffer in the name of "entertainment" for us.

Well like I said, neither of them are particularly humane in my eyes, however at least in hunting there's a point in nutrition made in the result for the hunter to eat what he kills, whereas animal fights are purely sadistic and any person who finds joy in such horror should be jailed for life.
