Vick went to jail, and he never should have. The next time somebody goes out there and shoots a deer, hog, duck, or rabbit they need to go to jail too. They're all animals.


My opinion, Riley shouldn't be punished at all. And no, not because of this stupid reasoning that "they say it all the time" or "listen to the rappers". He shouldn't be punished because its a word, and black people such as myself need to stop trying to tell people what they can or can't say. People should be able to say what they want, and in turn be willing to accept whatever reaction they garner from a person. You want to say it, then take your chances. Because I've been saying it my whole life and have never had a problem, so there's no cause for me to stop. If a white person says it to me, I'm a little uneasy, but not offended. He's got to deal with the rest of the league now on the field. That's punishment enough.

There is a fundamental difference between animals dying for food/sport quickly and humanely , and dying in an illegal sport for entertainment slowly and painfully for profit.

Vick tortured those dogs.

We don't know if Vick tortured anything. He didn't go to jail for animal cruelty. He went to jail for hosting an illegal gambling ring.

Killing for food is one thing, but killing for sport is no different. You're killing an animal for your own pleasure. Because you want to. Because you enjoy killing the animal.

Mind you, I don't care if people hunt, kill, or torture animals in the 1st place. I'm not an animal sympathizer. Is it unnecessary? Yeah. Do I really care? Nah. If you want to hunt, hunt. Want to fight pitbulls, fight pitbulls. Roy Jones does the rooster fighting. Its all the same.

Just my opinion.

Your opinion lack based other than you think so.

There is a huge difference, it's called waste.

If I hunt a cow for food it is the same as a slaughterhouse putting beef on the table...
If I hunt a cow and leave the meat to rot it is illegal and wasteful.


What he did was illegal .. Some would say that is difference enough and reason to go to jail... Breaking the law that is.

When enough people do illegal things, the government starts to take away the rights of the lawful.

You're not going to eat a pit bull. Killing it isn't wasting anything. I'll never waiver on the fact that he was overly punished for that. He should've did community service or maybe a month or two for the gambling ring. They made an example out of him because people were crying over the dogs.

As far as the cow scenario, if not for it being illegal to just leave it there due to it being a food source, more people would do things like that.

Cows are not killed for other than food because there is no sport. no challenge...

Hunters have different drivers than idiots betting on dogs and chickens.

.
I'm not going to stand here and pretend or allow you to pretend that there isn't context to the two events. Murdering an animal because it is threatening you, your family, your way of life, or killing for food does not fall into the same category as torturing and murdering animals for sport. That isn't an opinion it is a fact.


Mike Vick should have went to jail. Mike Vick should have been allowed to play for any team willing to employ him.

So hunting season is for the animals that are threatening us huh? Interesting. Hunting for sport or fun is okay, because its not dog hunting right? Dogs are obviously superior animals to others right? I've heard of this logic before.

Do you think you look like an idiot when you quote someone and then ignore what they wrote? Just wondering.
