Does he deserve a pass, Sarah? No, he broke the law. He pled guilty. I accept that. But damn, castrate, kill, slaughter – Michael Vick (see comments, I also know these slogans were posted on placards outside the court house)? That is what I disagree with. That has been the reaction since this started. Like he is some serial killer or murderer or child molester. Castrate, kill, slaughter? I’ll simply never understand this seemingly irrational attachment to dogs. Then I find out the dogs are going to be destroyed? And it is standard practice to destroy pits that have been found in connection with fighting rings? Where is the outcry to save them? It is a cultural difference clothed in a claim to some greater sense of humanity. In a country built on genocide, with the death penalty, homelessness, no universal health care, police brutality, and hunger. So from a culture that is a little less neurotic, to help end hunger in America I say we put those dead pits to good use. Here is a wonderful dish:
