LOL, no.

Pedophilia is a disease and can't be helped.

No, it is equivalent to a bank robber going to a bank IMO.

Pedophiles are typically under the influence of previous mental afflictions like being abused, or something traumatic, and often can't control their desires, thus being a threat to do it again. With Vick, there hasn't been any indication that he is in any way addicted to dog figthing or would do anything to ever hurt another animal. He made extremely bad decision in the eyes of animcal cruelty, and in (illegal) business decisions.

I could see him 100% banned from doing any sorts of betting, or that sort of thing, but unless there is a precedence of people that did time for animal cruelty never being allowed to own a pet again I would think it is a little overboard to restrict Vick in that, or anyone else for that matter that did so.

I wonder if Whitlock will comment on Vick's remarks on dogfighting as a "cultural" thing. It doesn't excuse his actions by any stretch but it might be worth discussion.

Granted, I also had a friend in HS whose father raised cocks for fighting. I questioned the ethics of this and he explained to me that it's not as bad as dogfighting or horsefighting(?!). I left it at that as they're just chickens anyway, and who am I to comment on the mistreatment of a disgusting bird which I really enjoy eating.

alot better people in cocking than in dogs.

LMAO

You're funny as hell.

Let him have his dog already.

Frosty 12-15-2010 03:32 PM

He should ease into it. He could start out with a cat or a lizard. If that works out okay, he could move to something a little closer to a dog, like a Chihuahua. If that goes okay, let him get a dog.

He didn't say it was the same. He said that it was the equivalent.

Yes, dogfighting is as bad as rape of a child....

And because dogfighting is something that he wont be able to stop himself from doing.......LOL

Wow, you must be highly educated.

Fine. This is similar to that sex offender list nonsense.

Either you have paid your debt to society or you have not. Either you should be in jail, a mental institution, or free. If you are free, you should be free. Get rid of the list (or put them into a mental institution), let Vick have his dog, and move on.

I understand restraining orders from specific people who are threatened, but aside from exceptions like that, we should get away from this whole "ok, we'll let you go, but..." stuff. If you let them go, let them go. If you aren't sure, why let them go?
