You really think that killing an animal to for food and killing an animal just to watch it die are the same thing?
Yo, numbnuts. dog fights aren't about the dogs that die- they're about the awesome ERECTIONS you can get from watching a dog die.
This post is for all the moronic people on this thread who have, just like Portis, tried to say that dog fighting is not a big deal, nothing to be concerned about etc.
You are all very uninformed and ignorant people. My guess is that none of you have ever seen the horrible effects that dog fighting can have. Animals are treated like they are prisoners of war. They are given the bare minimum of food and water to survive, kept in filthy cages almost all the time, tortured to the point where they become so scared that they lash out at anything. Animals are a lot like children. They are pretty smart, but they can't reason why somethings happen. They get scared easily. Haven't you ever been around a scared animal and felt bad for it.
These people are intentionally stressing animals and making their lives a living hell so they can be entertained. If you don't see a problem with that then maybe you should take a trip to the psychologist to see why it is you have such a violent psyche.
In case you still disagree here are a few links to what happens in these dog fights.

By the way "Precisely" may be completely wrong about the whole racism thing, but he is right about the meat industry. What they do to farm animals is completely inhumane and yes for some reason people think that one animal (dogs) is more valuable then another animal (chicken, cow, pig, etc.)
I don't eat meat, eggs, or fish so I guess I can say that and mean it.

No one disagreed about cruelty to farm animals either. BUT, it is possible to be an animal rights activist and eat meat.
Eating an animal for survival is one thing, seeing one killed for entertainment is a complete other topic.
Humans do not have to eat animals to survive. They choose to eat them because they like to. Farmers who keep animals in pens so they can't move before killing them so their meat is tender are thugs! Straight up thugs! Just like the ones who keep chickens trapped in cages too small for them living in their own crap! Straight up thugs...and there are lot more of these types than there are dogfighters!
Factory farmers are thugs of the worst kind...and they live in the country...and they are not young black men!
Well put. Except for the last part about farm animals. A dog is a higher-order animal than a cow or pig. If you've been around these animals and can't see that, I can't help you.Anyone who engages in dog fighting deserves death -- death by dog attack. Portis and Vick have now joined my list of asshole NFL players who I will never pick up in fantasy football, just on general principle.The league needs more Tomlinsons, Barbers and P. Mannings and less dare I say, pieces of shit like Portis and ol' Ronny Mexico.

Who says a dog is a higher-order animal than a pig or cow? Pigs are highly intelligent creatures...as are dolphins, but people eat them both...and some people love to eat dogs...and horses. When was the last time you got up in arms about eating dogs? Or is it just Mike Vick that gets your goat?
