Animals Shouldn’t Suffer for Stupidity
CALLEr: I have some thoughts on the Michael Vick problem. What Michael Vick did was a despicable pursuit of sordid thrills. Some offenses are forgivable. These are not. No sort of penalty or punishment that Michael Vick can receive will take away the stink from what he did. He is a marked man forever, and, well, he should be. I pity his family, but I do not pity him. He knew better, but he wasn’t better. Animal cruelty hits folks differently than drugs or sex. Animals are the innocent victims and are only trained to kill by their masters who bet on a winner. Michael Vick should be punished to the fullest extent the law will allow.

Dear Animal Lover,
GP agrees that Mike Vick deserves to lose football, money and his freedom. So far, he has shown absolutely no remorse in public for his actions. He clearly has been entitled to a degree that the common man cannot fathom. To have access to any form of entertainment in the world but choosing to get cheap thrills by watching dogs rip each other apart is disgusting and demented. Ever since someone discovered he could run faster than other athletes, Vick has been allowed to do whatever he wants. This is the time for him to lose everything he has. While Americans love to see people make the most of a second chance, right now its hard to figure anyone will wholeheartedly root for Vick ever again. GP sure wouldn’t want him playing for its team. Also, if you own a Mike Vick jersey, STOP WEARING IT. It’s like wearing an O.J. Simpson throwback. Vick’s jersey would be better used as a chew toy.
