It makes me want to curse and cry when I think about what Michael Vick and his three thug-ass buddies did to all those dogs. It seriously about kills me. But when it is too much, I think about how awesome it is that this has raised the level of consciousness about this horrific bloodsport. Training animals who depend on you to fight to the death, torturing the ones who don’t show “promise”–these atrocities need to be on the front page of the paper for a while. Fuck these guys. I hope this puts a tiny dent in what is apparently a thriving and sick industry, but I doubt it.
I Don’t Believe in Hell, but for Michael Vick I Challenge Those Beliefs

I think I’ve devised a suitable punishment. Vick likes dogfights. Vick wants to be in the Super Bowl. Give him what he wants. During the Super Bowl halftime extravaganza, put him and his compatriots in a steel cage on the 50-yard line, and then introduce them to the meanest, most demented fighting dogs ever bred. Make it a grudge match between humans and dogs. Let everyone bet on it. Once it’s over (I don’t think it will take long), remove the victors, douse the losers with water, and electrify the cage.
You know, I think I could start to enjoy that kind of dogfighting.
Brittney - I couldn’t agree with you more. I’ve just been sick over this whole thing. There’s a post coming at the “Zoo”, I just have to calm down enough to write it.
I’m pretty disappointed in the NFL for how they’ve handled this. It looks like they aren’t going to do anything unless he is convicted. Meanwhile Pacman Jones is suspended for throwing money at a stripper. THEY LIKE TO HAVE MONEY THROWN AT THEM. Where is the justice in this world?
If the NFL is going to act before the courts have reached a conclusion (which I’m actually okay with) in the Jones case, they should at least be consistent in how they apply their discipline.
It’s an awful and cruel sport. Those poor dogs. I hope they prosecute him to the fullest.
Adam Jones was suspended because he punched a stripper for taking money off the stage. That would be equal to Vick killing a dog for winning a fight. I hope this causes people to re-evaluate their feelings about other sports that use animals as athletes.
