Michael Vick -- My Doggone Life

61. The Watcher and Paco

But it is a Race issue...you got a whole dang Race not calling out publicly loud and proud when behavior is so over the top that the silence condemning it from that Race is deafening. To wit; OJ getting off, you all cheered....Imus calling a group nappy headed ho's you all demanded justice---yet say nothing when Chris Brown beats his woman...silence on Vick...silence against the Protesters in Oakland glorifying a convicted murder for killing 4 white police officers....A whole Race not condemning "Dont Snitch"...

When are you all going to get real and quit following Sharpton and Jackson who are nothing but racist shakedown artists? As a Race you all wont come together when it involves one of your own doing wrong....

Whatever---its your life to live...if you stayed mired in a certain level for so long dont wonder too long anymore why...White Man blaming is getting old. Mexicans and Asians have passed you all by like you were standing still and they didnt even know the language.

Oh and which one of you were a Slave and which one of us was a Master? Its over...get on with it and start calling out bad behavior by your own as a group for once instead of cowering into silence as some kind of "we're in this thing together man" kind of solidarity.

You all are getting laughed at each time a Black guy does something so outrageous and none of you as a Group speak out against it.

Speak up for once instead of acting like pulling together even when a man has been a savage to innocent animals and as a Race you clam up.

As Black Author Juan Williams wrote of in his book "Enough". Read it, you might learn something about why poor blacks remain poor blacks generation after generation.

Why aint the middle class blacks, you know the ones that run Atlanta, ever saying anything? They still in the hood too like Vick claimed?

Whatever, no skin off my back as they say----just saying...I got a nice life thank you, wish I could make it nicer for some of you all...I tried and in some cases did succeed as a hiring manager in the hi tech industry...I mentored, promoted and watched as those who wanted it excel and even exceed me in career, so its very doable...but many get accused of "acting white"..dang get it together as a Race will you all.

Those on here have computers and access to the net and know how to write and spell so most of you already probably have semi decent lives....

Now get mad and hating like as is a typical response instead of understanding why you have lost a whole generation to crime and drugs, prison and getting over...I recall the days of black folks truly wanting an education---not anymore...most want to get over and run HO's. I never recall that being the eye on the prize king and other spoke of.

How did it come to where being cruel to animals and glorifying cop killers were the things to value? Good Grief no wonder your Race is so different from all others----you all cant call out the bad stuff by your own. But quick to go after a Don Imus where it didnt make that much of a difference when you did.

62. NOT STICKING UP FOR ANYONE JUST WANT TO KNOW: Will it ever be OK to let a human being work to take responsibility for bad decisions made and incorporate knowledge for better more positive life choices? He paid a high cost for his actions...time will tell if he has changed for the better. Slamming a man who seems to be struggling to find a way to continue living might invite some unwanted "karma"? eh; my comments only...

64. And keep in mind beastiaity isn't what animals prefer either; PETA pervs...

should not be respected... Someone should do it to him what he to those poor animals... He is not sorry... and he'll never learned his lesson... He is sick in the head... I hope bad things happen to him and carries on through out his life... Also, he should not write a book... That bastard is just finding ways to make money... cause now that he is broke... What idiot would read it???... One more thing "F*ck Michael Vick"....

He served his time.

66. I wish VIck all the best. Hopefully he is truly remorsefull and he will be able to interpret that publicly. I think that alot of people dont understand that the book can do more help than harm. It can get the facts about dogfighting and animal cruelty out there. I think Peta is mad because they want their name and stamp all over it. Peta will never stop all people from wearing or making fur and you will not ruin Michael Vick. You will try but I think that he is going to be granted a second chance and it will be up to him to do the right thing with his life. I think that sitting in a jail cell for nearly two years is enough time to sit and think about what he did wrong. He has a lovely family and I think that from now on he is going to do his absolute best for him and his family. He loves his kids and I think that is what is eating him up the most. He will be o.k. and If he does go through with the book I will buy atleast 3 or 4 copies. I love Mike Vick and I hope he comes out and does the right thing.

67. I understand he "served his time" but he shouldn't be able to be a NFL player any longer. One, it won't look good for NFL, the team, the team members, the sponsors, the city, and the nation. Second, as a NFL player, you are a huge influence to your fans (which include children) and a representative of our nation. I sure as hell don't want my kids to idolize of look up to a man that tortures and kills innocent animals. I don't care how good he plays football.

68. Michael Vick is a vicious, hateful, hate-filled, violent, evil PSYCHOPATH. A rotten scumbag. And, NO, this has nothing to do with race. He tortured animals and should pay for the rest of his life for the evil he brought. After that, he will burn in hell.

70. killers,child molesters,rapist,do not get the time he got. i am sorry, but america needs to wake up. the jails are letting killers go early because of overcrowding and put someone like vick away over bull. we breed cows just to kill them. i do not agree with anything he has done,but please remember this is dogs that are fighters,born that way. look it up. the man is great roll model for children to stay in school and follow thier dream. LOOK AT THE POSITIVE THINGS HE HAS DONE, FORGIVE AND FORGET. GET A LIFE.

73. I'm sorry I said #48 because I meant #50 response. I'm in your court #48. I love your diatribe but can we keep tha discussion on a nice plane? I agree with the people that are against the horrible things that MV did.

74. Michael Vick will not have begun to pay his dues until he has been electrocuted, slammed to the ground, strapped to a raping post, made to live with a heavy chain aroung his neck, made to fight for his life, had all of his teeth removed in the most painful way, etc,etc. This PIG will never be sorry for what he did, he has no soul. He's only sorry he got caught and now he'll cry a river and say how sorry he is ONLY because he wants to be able to play football again. He's a waste of oxygen and if it wasn't for him being able to throw a football, he would have been in prison along time ago. Probably doing 25 to life.
