Article: Police raid Vick's home, find dog abuse

[smarta5150]

I'm a Hokie alum. I didn't donate. I don't much care how much Vick gave. But, to paraphrase Meredith Burgess from Rocky, "He's a bum. He's always been a bum and he'll always be a bum." The sooner the Falcons get rid of his ***, the better.

One felony's all it's going to take.

I know he isnt a good guy.

In no thread can you possibly quote me saying that.

The fact of the matter is he gave $10,000 out of his pocket to help the victims.

You can argue it was a small amount, you can argue his motives and blah blah blah.

BUT, the bottom line is it was a charitable donation to help out a horrific situation.

It was SOMETHING and that SOMETHING was a helluva a lot more than 99.99% of the population.

So yeah, call him a scumbag but about the donation, lay off the man for that... because it really is sad how posters are knocking him for it.

But like I said 12 posts earlier, this topic had enough attention already.

I am going to rest on that.

So what if he has dogs that fight? They're his dogs.

it's called animal cruelty

Vick wasn't fighting the dogs. The dogs were fighting each other.

I know it's illegal, but it's a stupid law. They're his dogs -- his property. It's stupid to say he can't fight them if he wants.

Inhumane...brutal...cruel...and illegal.

To see how one treats others one needs to look no further than as to how they treat their pets.

People that do this, and those that support their 'right' to do it are less than human, and show a total lack of decency.

Animal cruelty + $10,000 donation do not = vindication. Tell his charity organization his dogs need some donations.

I stand by my belief that this whole "donation" thing was a brilliant move by Vick's agent to improve his public stature. It look like his agent should have covered pet issues too though. He does what he can. Can't be all seeing... Vick needs two full time agents.

I agree with you about the donation -- sorry if that wasn't clear in the original. I'm focused here on The Dogs that Broke the Camel's Back.

That is, by far, the most idiotic statement I have ever read on this board. Dog fighting is inhumane. Period. These animals are typically VERY malnourished, starved to make them more "bloodthirsty, dosed with gunpowder to shortcircuit brain function and increase aggressiveness, and more often than not thrown into a closed environment (with nowhere to run) to fight to the death.

Dog Fighting is purely an attempt at stroking the ego of the dog owner. "My dog beat your dog. I'm better than you". If these tough guys really want to see who's better than who, go man to man. Fight to your own death p***y! What's the matter lost your balls?

Pets aren't "property". Cars are property. Guitars are property. Fine China is property. Dogs are animals, ******. If you can't handle the responsibility of caring and nurturing of an animal, then don't have one. Every one of these guys that takes part in this type of activity (or supports it) should be hung by their vaginas, because they sure don't have any balls! It's the most chicken**** form of entertainment on the planet.

Dogs are property. Goldfish are property. Any wild animal you catch is your property. You may think it's disgusting what other people do to their property. Personally, I think it's disgusting that Eddie Griffin ***** up that Ferarri. But I don't see the point in outlawing the activity.

you don't see the point in outlawing the torture of animals?

Yes, it's brutal. Yes, it's cruel. No, I wouldn't ever do it. Yes, I would shun someone for doing it. I would call them a horrible, horrible person.

But it's his property. It's not negatively affecting me or you. I don't see the point in controlling what he does with his property unless it has a negative effect on society.

 

[theogt]

Good job.

Why? He was absolutely 100% wrong. Dogs are property.

What do you guys think about clubbing baby seals?

I don't see the point in outlawing dog fighting, no. Nor chicken-fighting.

 

[theogt]

Then change the damn law, if it offends you so much. Until then, it's a felony.

I don't care enough about the law to lobby to have it changed. I just expressed my opinion.
