Perhaps they will learn from his conviction. Something gained afterall.
Anyone who is caught in dog fighting, drug dealing or any other illegal
activity must be made to pay for their illegal involvement. Woman, man, old, young, black, white whatever, you do the crime you have to expect to pay the time. That's the law.
Sorry if your upset by what is happening to Vicks but he did it to himself.
No one made him do this horrendous act. It was his choice and his choice
alone. Everyone has their different opinions on any subject and this is mine.
I do hope something good can come out of this. Perhaps the young who are
or thinking about getting involved into this type of activity will now think
twice before doing so.
I never said i was upset.. where did you get that I am just passionate about helping young black youth in this situation.. I never said he was not guilty. Just because i don't believe in massive negative emails or speaking negatively harsh words about someone I don't know doesn't mean that he is guilt free. Please don't try to put words in my mouth because this situation doesn't really call for it. You all are really naive to think that the young ones involved in this are scared by what happened to Vick. This will continue to happen behind closed doors like it has while you guys pretend that the kids involved where shaken by another back man from the hood going to jail. I seen one friend gunned down in front of my eyes, but that didn't stop anyone from shooting and killing more people. come one people, be a part of a solution.

You guys fail to see my point. there are many mike vicks out there who need help in unlearning this habit. I am happy that I am not one to sit and talk bad about whats going on I a actually doing something about it. Weather its Latinos Caucasians of Black folk I have and will continue to reach out to my own community to educate people on how they should treat animals and pets while you sit and point fingers and ignore the underlying issues. No it may not effect my kid but i am not going to sit back , point fingers and watch it effect other children(teenagers) when I can make a difference.

Am i mad, not in the least but my words are strong huh? Thas what god gave to me as a gift and Imma gonna use it to make sure none of my sons friends ever become a statistic as Vick has.
