Would you like to do something about Michael Vick?


Many know that Michael Vick was convicted of crimes related animal cruelty involving dog fighting at his home. He owned dogs that were trained to kill others dogs, and those who survived were brutally killed. Soon, he will be released from prison, and YOU can do something regarding his reinstatement into the NFL.


If you would like to sign a petition asking the NFL NOT to reinstate him, follow this link:




If you would like to sign a petition asking the NFL to test him for a psychological disorder before being reinstated, follow this link:




I urge you to consider the implications of these petitions. By signing them, you are communicating that you value integrity over talent and justice over suffering. I believe in second chances, but I also believe that this type of brutality can easily be translated from animals to humans. Please stand up for those with no way to communicate their pain.
