These are dogs, they aren't people! I know you are animal people here. But where is the outrage when a player beats his wife, or assalts someone? Mike Tyson did far worse and they still let him back without anywear near the "outcry".
What he did was wrong, but lets not forget these dogs weren't bred for cuddling. These dogs were bred to fight bulls.
So before you get on you high horse. You buy captured fish and stick em in a tiny glass cage.
Most people have a choice in abuse matters, and I don't torture my fish. Mike Tyson is an idiot, not saying his victims deserved it...but common' if you can't see that coming
. The fact that Vick bred them for fighting is as bad as the torture IMO. I would not hire him. And what about safety issues?...I like dogs, but I am not going to shoot anyone over it, but there are lot's that probably would. I would think he becomes a liability if you put him on a team out in the public eye. To each their own...I am not trying to convince you or anyone else here how to think, but to me what he did is worse and gets my blood going more than a story about Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson ever did...people make choices...dogs don't.
