Vick Sentencing Fair or Not

[Alexander]

23 months isnt enough. He should be thrown in a pit with another asswipe like himself and they should be forced to fight to the death.

Yep. Anyone that did what he did is capable of so much ****ed up sh*t. For anyone that doesn't know the exact process of a dog fight, they fight each other until one is gassed out and then the other dog proceeds to eat the exhausted dog alive. It is beyond sick, it really is unfathomable.

If it's OK with you I would like for the other guy to be Fedor Emelianenko, only he's not an asswipe.

He's lucky he didn't get more time. Us non-celebrities would have had a much longer sentence.

I'm sure some team will give him a chance. I'm concerned about his QB skills eroding to a degree while in prison. He wasn't the greatest passer in the NFL and this certainly doesn't help his cause. The Raiders will probably sign him LOL.

I would imagine that if one of you were to make a very serious mistake you would do all that you could within your power to get the least punishment as possible.

I assure you that when (it may not have happened yet) you are wearing the shoes of a convicted felon your tune will change a whole lot.

I believe his sentence was fair and within the guidelines as the law permits. He plead guilty and was sentenced accordingly.

Not sure what your point is B, but I disagree with the laws and feel that he should've been punished more severely. What he did is pure evil and less than 2 years served is simply not enough.

I just hate people who make animals do that, its not a justice system issue for me

You are entitled to disagree with the law.

My point was; suppose you made a mistake (I'm not going to judge the mistake as evil or cruel or petty or minor, just a mistake, and broke the law) and you were found guilty by your peers or plead guilty in a plea agreement, you may not appreciate the sting of a vengeful sentence.

That would make it a justice system issue for you, as you would like the penalty to be stiffer, right?

I agree that it was an inhumane act.

I consider that sometimes the perspective of the justice of a system is relative to the perspective from which you are dealt by that system.

I guess I would like it to be, but I don't think most other people care, so I don't really think its a justice system issue as the majority isn't with me on this one. I have a thing for dogs particularly, don't care much about other animals...

This, in my opinion is in a very different catagory than a simple "mistake". The things that he did to the dogs...well someone in their right mind wouldn't do those things because we all know they are wrong. He took lives, whether or not they were human doesn't count. They were living beings, defenseless animals. They really had no chance to defend themselves. If it was different case I would agree with you, some people don't deserve the sentences they get, some are even jailed while innocent.

[MM1Snapper]

Imho he should of gotten the maximum sentence. A man of his status should now better and i think they should have made an example out of him.

i'm glad they didn't give him the minimum

[Fastone]

maybe he and some fellow prison inmates could form a football team to challenge the prison guards

He would have to then play for the Cincinatti Bengals.

Your opinion is based on what "media coverage". We all know how completely accurate that always is. I'm not saying he is innocent because obviously he isn't but do we really know the extent of his involvement. btw, how many defenseless deer have you had.
