Currently, as of Sunday noon, the Albuquerque Journal's unscientific poll is showing the NFL's Atlanta Falcon Quarterback Mike Vick is in deep trouble. Fully half of the folks responding say the NFL should suspend him for running a dog fighting operation and another 28% say he should go one on one with a Rottweiler in a cage. He probably deserves both and maybe more. At least his reputation is shot. Dog fighting, senseless, brutal and ongoing in this country. The animal protection groups fundraising will be a cinch for a while.
My highly decorated Viet Nam vet brother had an interesting comment yesterday. He couldn't figure out why people aren't wishing the same thing for bush and company. In their case the killing and torture occurred to human beings. Senseless, brutal and ongoing despite bush proclaiming mission accomplished some years ago.
This all seems surreal sometimes.

I've always thought bush and cheney should have to strap on boots and combat gear and have to work a tour of duty. You can bet we'd be out of Iraq, oh, heck, completely out of the middle east... lickity-split.
No such luck.
Michael Vick, et al... should be put in a small cage with some big, gnarly, fighting dogs. Not only would he receive a just sentence but he'd be out of the NFL... lickity-split.
Horrible stuff.
I've supported PETA in the efforts to suspend and convict them.
I just don't understand the horrible violence in our world.
*sigh*
