As for your other point, I have no problem with charging someone who creates an unsafe situation, but that is not the case here. They were caged in the middle of buttfuck nowhere, and killed. Also, by your analogy, creating violent video games could be banned/criminalized because of Columbine.
You have obviously given up all hope of ever getting laid by someone on the board ever again.

When Vick's compound was first raided back in March, there were a few players based out of DC who publically said that they didn't understand what the big deal was. Their lawyers/agents/pr people told them to shut the fuck up, and the next day their statements were something like "it's wrong to break the law" or something like that.

That said, mine can't be the only reaction that results in grave bodily injury to Vick if I could get my hands on him. One (or at least I) hopes that someone with that sort of reaction is on a defensive line and needs sack stats.

He's already had us all, the bastard. Or at least the cute ones. No offense. But does he call? No. Prick.

We played like shoite. Pre-season friendly, though, so who cares. I do, obviously, since I watched it, but I mean normal people.

The whole thing was a Beckham Blowjob from start to finish anyway, which made it even more annoying. And high definition doesn't flatter most of our players. All in all I could have better spent my time force-feeding a small animal and devouring its tasty liver.

<amused snort> Probably true, although I hold out hope for HBM.

Seriously, though, I am not-pro animal abuse and I understand people's visceral reaction, but a potential 6 year sentence is akin to manslaughter. And, as much as some may prefer dogs to people, legally they are still dogs and not humans, and rational people should be able to separate their intellectual response from their emotional response.

Further, killing them is legal, as is true about all animals unless they are endangered. So the only argument is re the method, and/or how they were treated before being killed. This is a witch hunt by (some) people who aren't at all concerned about how what they eat are treated and killed, and by (some) people who abuse their children, and by (some) people who favor the "torture" of people. Moreover, doesn't the U.S. Attorney in VA have something better to focus his energies and resources on?

Some humans. Kids don't really have constitutional rights, either. And neither, apparently, do enemy combatants. Ask Mr. Man about the constitution in Wisconsin with regard to dogs.

Violent dogs kill and hurt people and other dogs. Video games don't kill and hurt people. People took dogs across state lines to participate in fights in that facility, which means they weren't just kept there. The facility also bred dogs to be sold to other dog fighters. I've known two dogs mauled by agressive pit bulls and chows in public places. Neither one was doing anything to provoke the attack, and both required extensive surgery.

Are you trying to kill me?

Good grief, RT. Players get arrested for rape, domestic violence and other various atrocities all the time. I know you're a pet lover, but I don't consider this crime to be as serious as those. And if other players aren't dishing out vigilante justice for those crimes, they aren't going to be doing it against Vick for this one.

There's a difference. In those cases, the women were probably asking for it. Dogs are completely innocent.

So are kitty cats, and no one is arresting you for joggling them.

I think it's pretty clear what I'm saying - Handsome Boy Model is none of the three.

You should have seen some of the insane outfits people were putting their dogs in at the dog show. Poor dogs.
