Actually after I read the first four words, Why do white people" I read no further. Anything that starts with such a blanket over generalization is not worth my time.

Sure, what he did was wrong, but it will never warrant any type of punishment even in the same room as execution, let alone two-digit jail sentences. On the same page, why did all these threads start appearing frequently again once Vick started finding success. Will one illegal act shadow every major triumpath this man achieves? This situation is no different than Tiger Woods's. White America will always find fault in successful black mens' achievements, though, justice was served legally and they received their punishment. They do not live their lives to fit your values and ethical standards, even though your so-called "moral outrage" is nothing more than concealed display of jealousy, to make these men look like the scum of the Earth, while you all are up-standing citizens who never makes mistakes in your lives.
Very good twist.
By combining a noble word like "values" with a currently negative word "white people" you have degraded the word value.
By comparing two black athletes who did completely different things you have used racism to call someone else racist.
By renaming mainstream capitalism (pro sports) as "white america" you once again have degraded something by attaching it to a negative racist statement.
"they do not live their lives to fit your values and ethical standards." Clever way of saying breaking the law is ok if you are minority and can claim cultural ignorance.
Publicists have made an art form of connecting any misdeed with everyday mistakes. J- walking is to fighting is to pot smoking is to wife beating is to murder.... see they are all mistakes, and everyone makes mistakes! Who are you? Did you not show up late for work last week, how dare you judge Vick!
Bingo, you nailed it.

Every single day, cows are tortured and killed in less humane ways so that you fat f***s can eat them. I am not defending what Vick did, but where is the outrage over the McDonald's McMeat factories?
I totally agree. It's funny how no one in the media, or otherwise, views the Michael Vick issue through this lens. I bet Tucker Carlson stuffs his face with beef, pork, chicken, and turkey all of the time. Meat eaters fail to see the hilarity of their outrage over a few dogs being killed, when they support the mass killing of animals through their eating habits.

Some people just have different values for different animals. I value dogs as pets, but not a cow or pig. When a cow goes on a run with me or gives unconditional love, I might reconsider things.
