We'd recommend getting some fresh reading material rather than dredging up new ways to slam old news stories.<br /><br />Vick has never shown remorse and we knew that would be a permanent condition when he decided not to accept our invite to acknowledge his victims back in 2009. Old news, for sure - but it seems to be a story that will continue to be re-told.

He committed a terrible crime and went to jail for it.And you know for a fact that IF he did come, you still would not get closure. Vick will be forever a "bad guy" to dog owners. Why should he put himself in danger (because some of you dog lovers are crazy) and come "see how the dogs are doing" Your argument makes no sense because did you ever stop to think that those same dogs he hurt so bad may in fact go into shock seeing him (no.. they dont forget.. you know this right?) Him coming is purely for YOU and not the dogs.

I've had cats, dogs, snakes, fish and even a turtle at one time. And while I can't say that I would shake Vick's hand if I saw him on the street, I am forced to remember that for once, our justice system worked as designed and a jury of Vick's peers convicted Vick and put him behind bars. Vick has now been released from prison having served the time for which he was sentenced. I do not see the reasoning behind continuing to throw these incidents in his face in the hope of getting more out of him. Yes, an apology would be nice, but remember that his victims are the dogs; not the people that rescued and now keep them from harm. Those dogs have long since forgotten about Vick and are concerning themselves with more important matters such as when their next meal is coming and chasing a tennis ball around the yard. And if those dogs have forgotten the man that abused them, I say we let them continue to forget. And rather than burning so much energy being mad at Vick, turn that anger to something positive and go outside and hug your dog.<br /><br />Brocphus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-52253572187626564712009-10-23T10:47:48.212-07:002009-10-23T10:47:48.212-07:00It doesn't surprise me the coward refused to s...It doesn't surprise me the coward refused to see his victims.

There is a huge difference. If I walked over to the Golden Gate Bridge and threw my money into the water below and then told you I couldn’t pay you back the money I owe you because I lost it, I believe you would correct me and say “no, you didn’t lose it , you just threw it away, I saw you.” So we don’t feel bad for him that he pissed his money away by choosing to torture and kill animals when he was quite gainfully employed.<br /><br />Of course he wants to move on and become a millionaire again, that's a given, but it is very difficult for people who work quite hard to protect dogs to give a pass to a man that pled NOT GUILTY to state animal cruelty charges even after spending his time in jail for "racketeering." The state dropped the animal cruelty charges because he a a celebrity, so he has NOT done his time for those many offenses and he has NOT apologized for what he's done. He apologized to his family and fans for letting them down without ever mentioning what he did to those dogs. <br /><br />You are misinformed about Vick not participating in dogfighting. He admitted to it in court as well as his participation in torturing and killing dogs with his own bare hands. I was in court at his sentencing and heard it with my own two ears. But I doubt this makes you feel any different about him.

It's too bad that when he underperforms he won't get clamps on his ears attached to cables connected to a battery and thrown in a pool. That would be too humane for him. This was a lifestyle chosen by him. It's only a matter of time before he goes back to that lifestyle. Who's going to be his next vicktim when they underperform? A teammate, his girlfriend, his kids? If he suffered a career ending injury and lost his second chance at fame and fortune, that would be more chances than he gave the dogs he tortured and murdered.

I am looking for retribution on behalf of the lives he injured and destroyed that society believes cannot be rehabilitated an adopted. A lightning stike, a runover in a crosswalk would be too kind. Vick is a human piece of garbage that should be subjected to the same kind of pain he subjected his canine prisoners to. He shouldn't be allowed back into the NFL as a rold model for our children. Gee, do you think my views are to harsh? If so, support the NFL.

Yet even if I were not, I think I'd at least be perplexed by the quiet inaction of some organizations who are now being rewarded with Eagles funding. And that includes HSUS, which is being paid by the Eagles to run an anti-dogfighting program in Philly. How neat and tidy. Vick gets to play ball again, HSUS gets paid extra for work they should have already been doing, and everyone else (well almost) looks the other way.Usually Not Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-79394527373012521392009-10-16T09:01:49.914-07:002009-10-16T09:01:49.914-07:00heya,

Nice pro-Vick article by Wayne Pacelle in the SF Chronicle today (ahem), with a pic of Teddles, but no mention of Bad Rap, his foster home, other rescue groups, etc. In fact, he side-stepped the issue of saving the dogs completely, and milked his Vick association for all it's worth-- now THAT'S a PR stunt. He ended on "We are all sinners when it comes to animals, and we can all do better." I guess so, if you head the organization that was campaigning for these dogs' euthanasia.Kirsten https://www.blogger.com/profile/03014045814289948197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-80959057699675396622009-10-16T08:20:20.824-07:002009-10-16T08:20:20.824-07:00Kudo's Bad Rap...you are a Class Act as always...Kudo's Bad Rap...you are a Class Act as always.....and Vick is a coward, as always....<br /><br />TheDogDiva.blogspot.comDiane; The Dog Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04747392736704809124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-32959974636040692532009-10-15T23:19:02.367-07:002009-10-15T23:19:02.367-07:00anon 7:48 - vick can't be in the same room wit...anon 7:48 - vick can't be in the same room with a dog. if he had accepted our invitation, he would've stayed indoors but viewed the dogs through a window to an outdoor grassy area. <br /><br />the dogs would've had no idea what was going on inside, btw. they'd be too busy trying to play with each other, because of course large grassy lawn = party time (many of our V-dogs are play buddies).Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05881171300084907158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-3898478858583828212009-10-15T22:56:14.294-07:002009-10-15T22:56:14.294-07:00I'm sorry but I have no forginess in my heart ...I'm sorry but I have no forginess in my heart for MV or ever will !!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-73362137454701546612009-10-15T19:48:49.270-07:002009-10-15T19:48:49.270-07:00I'm curious, per the court order, what distanc...I'm curious, per the court order, what distance is Vick required to stay away from the dogs?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-78801418947650893882009-10-15T17:03:56.593-07:002009-10-15T17:03:56.593-07:00If we lived over there we would be the first in li...If we lived over there we would be the first in line to march!
