so they let Michael Vick back into the NFL?

But a much worse message for youth would be to say that even though you have paid your debt to society you are now an outcast who has no chance to redeem yourself.

I don't see it that way at all. I think it's a message sent to youth that "you are responsible for your actions" when you do the crime and after.

Ok show of hands here, how many parents have heard every excuse in the book rather than just standing up and saying yes I did it and i'm guilty.

I dont care what I have to do, Im not letting this happen. Not without a fight. I will write letters to every concieveable person I can think of.....


He is a good look at the scum of the universe. He should be in jail for a MUCH longer period of time; in fact, I dont think he should have been let out at all. I personally think he should suffer the same fate he gave to those dogs.


Its disgusting, to know that people actually allow things like this to happen. Its disgusting on EVERY level.


Humans can't achieve peace until we spread it to all other beings. And the practise of gaining "entertainment" from other species suffering is completely barbaric.

Pete Rose cheats and is vilified for life. Vick killed dogs and gets back in??? I see something wrong with this picture.

Here's some info on what happened to his dogs. Worth far more attention than michael vick, in my opinion.

I agree toooo many celebs are allowed to reenter the limelight after acts of criminal nature. look at barney frank "running male call service from basement" an elected officiall shouild be held to a higher standard ,police officers, all should be real role models! not just paid exorbitant amounts for substandard morals

You know who should be paid like athletes? TEACHERS! If teaching jobs were held in higher esteem, teachers were paid better... Oh my gosh, can you imagine the "trickle down effect" that would have on our kids? What would our nation be capable of if our kids had the best of the best to form their minds / egos / futures? WOW!
.... and as for that Vick character, it only shows people that you don't have to be accountable for your actions... most of the time you can buy your way out of trouble if you've got the money.

quite frankly, I am fed up to my eyes with all manner of celebs be they pro athletes, musicians, actors or whatever...their egos grow large and many think they are above and beyond the normal rules of human conduct...they become self appointed experts...they do stupid stuff and set bad examples...not all, but way too many and it is the bad apples that get the press...I am fed up with them all...there is a special place in hell for the likes of Vick...I have nothing further...other than my heros are real people who live in real time...they do their job, take care of their families, love their country, use common sense and take responsibility for their actions...I am out...

Why not let vick back into the nfl? Ted Kennedy killed a woman and he is a U.S. senator
