That's rich. I figured it was only a matter of time before someone said "it's only a dog". At least the ant or spider died a quick and painless death. I would have rather the dogs he TORTURED had the same luck.

In YOUR opinion. If it were up to me, his ass would still be in prison...and would be for a long time to come.
The only thing that bothers me is the people who think that this is way worse than KILLING another HUMAN. I know once again this is only my opinion, but I would love to read some one trying to make a case to prove me wrong. I'm not saying what Vick did is ok, but it's far from the worst things that go on this world. With that said, I'd cheer for him if he was on our team, but I am would be no way for that from a football or moral standpoint. The same goes for Stallworth.

One series of acts were completely premeditated and with full intent for their outcome committed against animals without a choice in the matter, the other was a single incident that was an accident with both parties equally at fault by both of them consciously making choices that resulted in the death of one of them.
They are both bad, but one is forgivable and one is not.

That's the thing,...if it WAS you, you WOULD still be in prison. This is why I don't care if he ever gets a break.

I've never killed anything. Michael Vick did. He is a murderer.

come on people he did his time, if he played on my team I'd cheer for him just like I do for all the 53 current players.
Pssst...big difference between an ant and a DOG. Are you kidding me? You Michael Vick apologists crack me up.

No, I wouldn't. It doesn't even matter if it's a dog, human, or cat. It was voluntarily consented to, and many of those pets belonged to other persons, who have rights, and Michael Vick showed a blatant disrespect towards, not only his fellow man's rights, but towards his privileged position as a rational human being.
I wasn't convinced by his apology either. It came off more like he's sorry he got caught, not that he's sorry for what he did. A rational human being, with the integrity of an animal, are lower than snakes.
