Michael Vick -- Out of Prison

Michael VickLock up your puppies -- Michael Vick is out of prison.

Vick left prison early this morning and is on his way to his home in Hampton, Va. where he will serve the final two months of his federal sentence on house arrest.

His release was shrouded in secrecy over concerns for his safety.

Vick served the past 19 months at Leavenworth Penitentiary in Kansas after pleading guilty to bankrolling a dogfighting ring.

46. PAHairston wties: In general, white folks have always loved their animals more than they love black folks.

Oh stop. And what facts do you base that on? Are you standing outside on a corner conducting an impromptu White People Poll? Just exactly how many White People did you interview to arrive at this indictment of the White Race?

50. @ NotJustanothername
I'm a thug for believing in something called fairness? Take a trip out to a slaughterhouse and see how those animals are treated. Go watch someone hunt or travel to some parts of Africa where people poach and do heinous things to animals for money, or how about some places in Asia where dog meat is eaten. Until you go to any of those places shut ya mouth. Mike Vick served 2 years nearly over some animals while there are people who molest children that get only 8 months and get out in 6. Mike Vick shouldn't of been in jail to begin with. Prison is for actual criminals not petty crimes. He made a mistake, so what. Where any humans or children harmed...NO then prison time isn't warranted. Another thing are you retarded, how do you misspell my name when its on the screen, do you have trouble reading?

51. I believe he has paid his debt and hopefully learned a lesson. He should never be allowed to play professional football again. He is not someone I would want my child to look up to. Mike go back to the ghetto. You blew the only chance you had to get out. Do you know how many college football players would have loved the opportunities you had and be good role models? Just go away.

52. Some of these comments are completely heinous. You want to debate the value of human life vs animal life? Life is life. Period. End of story. MojoCeltica is completely right. His punishment was largely due to intent. He recklessly ended lives, lives that had no chance in fighting back or defending themselves. That is malicious and unconscionable. All this "I feel bad for Michael Vick, he shouldn't have gone to prison" is complete crap. Why? Because he was the highest paid NFL player he should be let off the hook? It is about time public figures, who are role models to your children, be held accountable for their actions. He made his own bed, he has to sleep in it.

53. JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I DO NOT WANT TO SEE THIS PUCK IN THE NFL OR ANY PROFESSIONAL HIGHLIGHTED POSITION. HE IS NO LONGER DESERVANT OF ANY PRIVALEDGE. HE HAS BEEN GIVEN A SLAP ON THE WRIST, WHICH IS SICKENING WITHIN ITSELF, AND SHOULD BE MADE AN EXAMPLE OF FOR EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATES IN THIS PRACTICE AND BEHAVIOR. ASPCA NEEDS TO PUT THE HAMMER, AND I MEAN HAMMER, TO THESE PUCKS OF THE WORLD.

54. Oh people please, get over yourselves! They are friggin dogse! You love you dogs, good for you, but not everyone feels the same way. Some people like them, some don't. Pitbulls are fighter dogs, that's what they do. I look at it this way, how many dogs were killed? How many children will not be attacked & mauled for life because these dogs are now gone? You people are are delusional, acting like your pets have more rights than a human's life. Get over it! We have a neighbor who walks her dogs twice a day, to piss & crap on everyone's lawn. Yet, when you confront her about it she gets offended and see's nothing wrong. Well, we spent our hard earned money to put in a new lawn & brown spots wasn't part of the deal! She finally got a clue when got the BB gun out or we turned the sprinklers on her ass everytime the dog went to squat or cock his leg!!! And what is it with you people who let dogs lick you on the mouth face or fingers? That dog has been licking his/her ass & genitals! And keep your f'n dogs out of the grocery stores, damn they are not human!!!

WELCOME HOME MR. VICK, THE NFL & YOUR FANS HAS BEEN PATIENTLY WAITING FOR YOUR RETURN!!! All you haters out there, the man can play his ass off & has made millions, don't hate him for that!!! Spay & neuter your pets, the humane society is overwhelmed!!!

55. No second changes for dog killer Vick, not in football anyway. Show your remorse by working at a shelter cleaning up dog crap. You no good piece of sh.t. Hope someone beats the hell out of you.

56. What a scumbag, and anyone who believes that he's sorry is an idiot, he wants to work with the humane society, yeah right, he's just saying and doing whatever it takes to get back into the NFL, hope he likes his new job as a laborer making 10 dollars an hour LOL its what he deserves.

57. MojoCeltica...leave the meth alone!! It should have been you hit & left on the side of the road! What a moron! Please don't reproduce!!!!

58. Seriously, I do not understand these people... they pay so much money to eat their precious meat and if you have not noticed those animals are tortured for you people to eat them and then Vick goes and did this terrible thing and he goes to jail paid for what he did.. which I thought it was ridiculous for him to spend all that time in jail is not that he killed a human being. I love animals and they should not be treated bad, but Why do you want him to be dead???? He is human and humans make mistakes + he has a family...What is wrong with you people???

59. WELCOME HOME MR. VICK!! YOUR FANS & THE NFL AWAIT YOUR RETURN!!!

p.s. how many children's lives were potentially saved from these pitbull attacks? i'd say he did these children a favor, there are less pitbulls in VA to attack/maul/kill innocent little chilren! Get over it!
