My mail is 285 posts tonight. Most of them are either about anal glands or Michael Vick. Is that a coincidence? I think not. I have to agree with Ed. This man did something I find reprehensible, but he didn't kill someone, molest a child, didn't cheat an old lady out of her life savings, or even rape a minor. I agree that Michael Vick should spend some time in jail, and/or pay a large fine. I don't feel he should be put in the category of a mass murderer, or even a con man who destroyed the lives of hundreds of people. Mistreating dogs does bring a strong reaction from us, who love our animals. But, as one who sees people at their worse at times, I don't think his crime raises to the level of what so many are suggesting. After an appropriate time in jail, and a fair and just financial penalty, he should be allowed to pay his debt to society and return to a life of some sort. I for one, do think he is being treated specially due to his success at football. That is a shame.
