It is an animal just like a dog, why can we kill one and not the other? because it's what acceptable in our culture. Look at dogs and cats in china their on the menu, should we put all chinease people in jail?

It's not the fact that he killed dogs. It's the WAY he killed them. If there was an underground illegal pig-fight ring, I'd feel the same way. Especially if the losers were killed in the same way as these dogs were, by tying a rope around their neck, throwing it over a tree limb, and hoisting them off the ground till they quit kicking. Or by slamming them into the ground over and over.
If he wants to kill a dog, I don't really care. If he wants to torture and abuse a dog, that's when I start to care.

Hog dogs in training, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dysyw..._embedded#t=13 I also picked pigs as an example on purpose, check out a video on how they make pork rinds, and tho they are getting away from it now due to animal lovers one of the best ways to remove the hair from a pig would be a live scalding of the pig.

Yeah...I have to admit, all debate of vegetarianism ends when I hear some bacon sizzling in a pan. Pigs' intelligence is only exceeded by their yumminess.

He's made 2 good decisions in 20 plus yrs.
1-hiring Jimmy Johnson, but then Jimmy got to popular
2-getting rid of TO

My .02, got in late lol. A man who abuses any animal, especially an intelligent animal like a dog is no real man. If Michael vick, or muhammad Ali, or the weird kid down the street were to touch any of my dogs, they'd recieve a thorough *** whoopin. That said, if they touched my truck, they'd get a slightly less passionate *** whoopin. But if they were abusing their own dog, I'd walk over and beat their ***. That's how I was raised. You stand up for those that can't do it themselves, little guys, women, the handicapped and animals. Everybody around vick is just as guilty as he was. He's a big dude, but he's not immune to a stern talkin to, or if that fails, an axe handle upside the head. And everybody here who's stood by while somebody gets picked on, or somebody is pokin a caged animal is just about as guilty as mike vick. Hypothetically though, in the case of my dogs, after the *** whoopin had been dished out, it'd be about over. And vick got his whoopin and took it like a man. He did his time, ate a big ole plate of humiliation, and lost his money. And now he wants to play football again. Let him play. He's not dogsittin for me, and I probaly wouldn't let my kid go to his house, but he's only what you make him. I make him a football player, not a role model. Your tv has an off switch. If your kid turns into a dogfighter, it's your fault, not vicks.
I personally wouldn't mind if vick took some extra hard hits from dog lovin linebackers, but I don't think he should be banned bottom line.

That's what is missing from today's culture, a good *** whoopin!

I agree with Donald Breland, the guy deserves to have a second chance. Now if he screws up AGAIN, then we'll have a problem. It's a DOG FIGHTING. No one is raping/killing/stabbing/choking anyone else. It's a DOG. Sure I love my pets, but I would never put them up to a human's life. We, humans are the KING of the food chain. WE should be considered the most important life form on earth.

And Michael Vick did have an exceptionally strong arm and quick feet. His accuracy poor. Comparing him to Joey Harrington is about accurate.
