PHILADELPHIA – Michael Vick is barred from owning a dog for a year and a half, but the star quarterback's comment that he'd like to bring one into his house generated renewed outrage — and support.
The convicted dogfighting ring operator told the news site TheGrio.com that he genuinely cares about animals and would like to have one for a pet again.
You know, I understand the outrage, but I believe that, if Vick wants a dog after he finishes probation, he should get one. After all, he will have served his sentence by then, and will have paid the price demanded of him.
So, answer the poll.

Yeah, and Colonel Sanders wants to keep pet chickens.

And if he did (well, he's dead now so he can't)? How would it be any of your business?
Yea, I hear that Col. Sanders was a pretty kinky guy. :mrgreen:
Cruelty to animals is everyone's business. Cruelty to children is everybody's business. Sexual predators are regulated even after they have paid their debts to society. Vick shouldn't be allowed around animals.

After he has paid his dues to society, you have no say whatsoever in what he is allowed to have or not have.
Animals are property. It's why we can eat them....
I know. But like you I have an opinion and an ....

now that was a cheep shot
why not?
convicted felons are not allowed to have guns
convicted child molestors are not allowed to live within a certain distance from schools
we already put many restrictions on criminals after they have paid their dues. how is this any different?
Animals are property. It's why we can eat them. And I'm not sure that our overbearing sexual predator laws make a good basis for other aggressive government tactics. Once Vick has completed his punishment, he should be free once again to own a dog. You can't punish him for things he may do in the future; only for that which he has already done.
Because a court did not impose it on him. Neither does the law. In the other cases, either a court has imposed it, or it is mandated by statute.
vick should get a dog
once the terms of his parole have been satisfied
he is stupid to raise this matter now instead of simply waiting til june 2012 and getting whatever dog he wants
How long have you been eating dogs?

I think they should let him get the dog. fit his ass with a shock collar and have someone follow him around. any time he even thinks about abusing the dog, the shock the piss out of his ass.
