The torchering wasn't part of the "business"... it was for the sick "thrill"
I can't wrap my mind around the torture -I totally agree with you. I said in my post it makes me sick ...even watching the documentary about his saved dogs (and dogs that couldn’t be saved) was really hard to watch....that anyone could do that is beyond me. But fighting animals goes back thru the ages of time ..... I still think that people who partake in ‘fighting’ rings don't see the suffering...or they wouldn't be there in the first place. They're of a different mindset than an average person. It’s a sick form of gambling.

I'm glad there are so many protests about him being signed...everyone should be upset that he is going to make millions again - but the awareness about dog fighting went National with his arrest.....maybe more 'rings' will get busted and it will be more than a misdemeanor when arrested for animal cruelty....... I know due to the money involved in Vicks ring is probably the only reason he did so much time, but still ...... people are paying attention.
