Vick-animal abuser & multimillionaire...

[happylabs]

Seriously mixed feelings on this one.

He was caught, convicted by a jury, and went to jail.

He served his sentence which was handed down by a judge in accordance with sentencing guidelines.

He is now playing football again, and under the watchful eyes of Andy Reid, with others in the league watching him like a hawk. Reid or Belichik are really the only coaches who could probably handle this and turn it around, as neither one puts up with off field garbage.

I've heard his interviews, and unlike his interviews before the trial and jail, he sounds like he really knows he screwed up. IIRC, his mandatory community service has long since passed.

Here's a FAQ from HSUS (Not my favorite people, but it is what it is)

I'm with you on this one. I think it is time for all to get over this and move on. He has paid for his mistakes.

Sick Vick will never have paid for his crimes. And have no doubt, they were crimes, not mistakes. A mistake is taking the wrong exit off the highway or wearing mismatched socks or putting on the wrong color lipstick. It's a "miss take". Vick knew what he was doing, his culture had nothing to do w/it and he should be hounded (pun unintended) for the rest of his life. That's the price he must pay for committing such horrible crimes.
