I'm not any kind of big animal rights activist, but dog fighting or even rooster fighting makes me think you'd have to be a really sick person to be involved in it or watch it. How could it be entertaining for a normally adjusted person to watch two animals fight to the death?
It seems an indication of personality flaws like torturing animals as a kid can be part of the homicidal triad.
ETA: I'd like to see the Falcons release Vick. Surely there's something in his contract about how he represents the organization. (They might have to wait for conviction to play it safe, but a federal indictment is damaging enough when you are talking about branding of an organization. Well, any organization except a sports team I guess. Why do some athletes who have had so many opportunities choose to be thugs?
His defense right now is that it was relatives of his who did it. Okay, raise your hands if your relatives could run a 65 dog fighting ring at your house (any one of your houses) and you wouldn't know about it.
(But the particulate in the water bottle wasn't weed, so maybe Michael Vick is the Cassandra of our time. )
