The case of Michael Vick is extremely disturbing whether he is guilty or not, as it shows that terrible abuses of animals are still occurring in our 21st century politically correct society.
The facts of the case indicate that either he knew nothing about what was happening at his home, or he knew everything that was going on. There is no grey area in this case and if found guilty he could spend 6 or more years in prison, and could have charges of tax evasion, etc., piled on to the other crimes, as there would have been illegal gambling occurring, and income that was not disclosed to the IRS.
The Atlanta Falcons quarterback was expected to appear at a bond hearing and enter a plea on dogfighting conspiracy charges. Vick is accused with three others of conspiracy involving competitive dogfighting, procuring and training pit bulls for fighting, and conducting the enterprise across state lines. Federal prosecutors allege the operation, known as Bad Newz Kennels, operated on Vick’s property in rural Surry County
This will obviously receive alot of coverage, and I hope that The ever media grabbing attention getters, Reverends Jackson and Sharpe, do not try and turn this into a racial case as they do everything else that involves an african american, and the legal system. This case should only be about whether he is guilty or not and leave the racial component out of it.
So far the photos that they have shown of the animals and the aftermath of dogfighting are disgusting, this is a barbaric "sport", and all who participate in it should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
