Micheal Vick
I think Micheal Vick was treated too harshly in punishment for his crime of fighting dogs. For those who don't know, Micheal Vick, a pro football player was caught in a raid of his property for having dog fighting rings and many dogs some who were even killed by evident fighting. Though Im sure it was a harsh scene, I still do not think two years in prison was fair in anyway. I think the only reason the punishment was so harsh was because he is a face in the news today and they used him as to set an example. That is the problem I see with the case because I think he should be treated as fairly as anyday average joe because we are all supposed to be equal.

He was treated like everyone else. Anyone who gets caught dog fighting will go to jail because its illegal. You just happened to hear about it more because he is a professional football player. He should have a lifetime ban from the NFL for this crime. Dog is supposed to be man's best friend, not trained to kill for entertainment.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with Tyler's point. Mike Vick, just like any person on this planet, knows the rules and boundaries set up by this country. And because we live in this country, we can make any decision we want. He made those bad choices even though he knew they were illegal. So he should be punished like anyone else.
