It's almost as if some of you think what he did was worse than the abuse of a child which is happening all over the U.S. Let's make a post about a guy abusing a child and we'll most likely get one response and the post will then fall off the page.
Let it go. I know you guys have a hard on for Dogs and how they should be treated and Vick is easy to hate but let him live his life. Hate and jealousy in here is overwhelming. You don't have to give the guy a second chance but wishing someone would break his neck is just classless.
If an 8 year old is exposed to stealing, chances are he will be a thief the rest of his life. If an 8 year old is exposed to drugs, chances are he will become a drug addict the rest of his life. Michael Vick was exposed to dog fighting when he was 8 years old. Granted, when he was older he should have realized his mistake, but like a drug addict he could not stop. It was how he was raised and brought up. It was his life. I am a dog owner and dog lover and have been my whole life, but I am willing to forget the past and let Vick live his life and get his 2nd chance.
I can understand some of the hatred expressed in this thread, but Michael Vick is not the only person in this country who was abusing dogs. I just hope some of you who have this hate in you are not just about hating Michael Vick and are doing something to stop things like this from happening(obviously Riv34 is and I salute him also).
Im sure many wont agree with this and thats your right. Im just stating my opinion on how I feel about it...
this is dumbest shit I have ever heard. are you kidding me? so just cause he was brought up around it, excuses him? so since how I was brought up, my dad was a drunk, beat on my mom and in the end, killed himself from liver failure. so If I were to grow up, be a drunk..beat on women..that would excuse me since I grew up in that environment right? christ..
and you say like a drug addict he could not stop. earth to wabashwonders...drug addiction is a disease. dog fighting is not a disease.
everyones always looking for the finger to point the blame. can't just say he made some really horrible fucked up decisions and now hopefully has been rehabilitated? no...he grew up around it so it excuses him.
