Celebrity Special Treatment!

This is getting totally out of control.

Michael Vick.

The single most sadistic football player since OJ Simpson is going to pretty much walk free for the gruesome works he has wrought.

Nine dogs executed by him and three other accomplices in manners befitting the punishments he deserves himself. Hanging, electrocution, drowning, and bludgeoing.

He is looking at 6 years in prison and a $350k fine for brutally executing 9 defenseless animals. Why? Because they didn't perform well in test fights. He may have to pay the fine but he won't serve anymore than three months in prison unless he gets a dog lover for a judge.

The NFL is doing nothing to punish him. Because no drugs or firearms were found when the raid on a family member's home (owned by Vick) that was being used as a puppy mill for pit bulls. Then later a raid on his own property where the poor dead dogs were found.

This is purely just sadism. Michael Vick deserves to have his NFL contract revoked. His endorsements taken away. And, every last penny he has seized. And then. He needs to be crucified thrown into a pit with a bunch of ravenous dogs and see how they treat him. Maybe if we could actually see some real punishment take place with Michael Vick then maybe just maybe we can set an example.

But this is America and he is a celebrity. Its all Bullshit anymore. Its just sickening.

I absolutely agree.......saw a piece on this during the evening news last night. It is just disgusting that any human being could treat another living creature that cruel. The file footage was just revolting.....I had to turn the T.V.

What goes around, comes around and I hope to hell he gets what he deserves.......if not in this life, in the next for sure.

I agree that's if he's guilty (probably is) that it's sick and he should be punished. But what if he is aquitted and the NFL sacks him? (pardon the pun) Once he is found guilty I'm sure he will be booted from the NFL but unti then how about waiting til he's convicted.

Oh he is guilty. With Nine executed dogs in his home, all pit bulls showing signs of torture and neglect prior to their death.

I’ve heard commentary that because Vick is a celebrity he will gat hammered harder than the average schmuck that does the same things. If that’s true it doesn’t speak well of how we deal with those average schmucks.


(Thanks!)
