you said cock fighting. :-)

I think Michael Vick is a piece of shit, that being said he has served his time--whether we agree it was enough is irrelevant--that's how our justice system works. I know some Eagles fans (lifelong) that have a very hard time reconciling this. Michael Vick isn't the only one who has f'd up and ended back on top. Check out Donte Stallworth http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3982263 & http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5048624 and he's still playing. I don't recall threads of outrage over this, and he killed another person. He spent 24 days in jail.

I have a friend that served time on weapon and drug charges. He's a convicted felon. When he was released from prison, he looked and looked for a job to no avail. Finally someone decided to give him a second chance. He now owns a very profitable concrete business and has in turn given others a second chance. Now, I understand his crime was not a "violent" one, but still he needed a second chance. Sometimes people do good things with second chances.

I know a few other people that have been in trouble, some with good outcomes, others not so much.
