Dog fighting was here long before rap-music and if the writer checks his
history African Americans were not involved at the beginning! The writer uses
this incident to link is dislike of the hip-hop culture
and rap music..hell I don't like rap music either but I'm not blaming it for
the ills of our society,
Ah yes, but the rappers and gangs have brought it from the back woods to the
city. It's "cool".
For example, Missy Elliott and rapper DMX feature fighting dogs on album
covers, and an unedited version of rapper Jay-Z's video "99 Problems" features
footage of dogs preparing to fight in a pit as spectators watch. If that's
not promoting it, I don't know what is.
Elevating dog fighting to "cool" status among the bad boys and "wanna be bad
boys" from the inner cities IMO is an absolute nightmare. I hope they make
one hell of an example out of Vick.
So happy to be no where close to the problem, even if it means dealing with
an occasional dead rabbit, feral cat or too many toads:)
