I feel you Michael Vick...You pay your debt to society and still can't catch a break. According to heated responses to "The Michael Vick Project" on BET, people would rather see you nailed to a cross with rusty nails, instead of actually shining a light on the fact that you learned from your mistakes.
It astonishes me how the masses are so willing to build someone up and subconsciously salivate at the opportunity to tear 'em down. Spousal abusers (i.e. Michael Madsen) or sex addicted sociopaths (i.e. Charlie Sheen) are given more leniency in the public "I hate you" court.
For the record... Michael Vick has paid is debt to society. He served time in jail and lost millions. Do I in any way support what he did with the dog fights? No... as a dog owner, I was quite appalled. However, I think everyone should have the opportunity to re-present themselves... which he is doing.
You can catch the show on BET.
The American Kennel Club, IAMS or NAPBTA should make Michael Vick their spokesperson. Who better to shine a light on the needs of our best friends than a reformed dog owner?
Michael Vick... welcome to your second round of 15 minutes!
