Maybe they should just have him fight a pitbull for punishment? If he loses, he gets one more chance to fight. If he loses again, he gets drowned in the lake because he's not performing.

I like the soaked in water and electrocution method myself.

Edit : I'm sorry but these guys are some VERY sick individuals. The dog fighting is one thing but the way they put these dogs to death if they lost a fight is another whole story.

Those poor dogs don't deserve to go to hell. The devil should make Vick into his pet. :evil:

kinky. i like it!

but seriously, i cannot bring myself to think of a punishment terrible enough for this guy. the things they publicize are all much worse than anything i could imagine doing to anyone or anything...

leave his fate up to someone much crueler than me.

I'm not condoning dog fighting. I think it's disgusting, but I think the outrage over this is a bit odd. It's not like he shot up a school or something. We do all kinds of inhumane things to animals, it's just that dogs are an animal we like to keep as pets, so inhumane treatment of them is unconscionable.

There is also a cultural element at work here. Dog fighting is something of an underground sport in poor, predominantly black, urban communities. In Spain and Portugal they ritually kill bulls by stabbing them with dozens of swords until they bleed to death for entertainment, yet that is considered high culture. In much of the world [expletive] fighting is a sport with great cultural symbolism.

Have you watched the videos of the fights?

There is nothing cultural about it. Nor is there anything cultural about how they kill the dogs that don't win. How many dog carcasses did they find on Vick's property?

I didn't know there were videos. I'm not saying dog fighting isn't disgusting. If the charges are true he should go to jail. Also, it looks like he was trying to set up a dog fighting business or something, which is just obscene.

I just think that wanting him torn limb from limb is an overreaction.
