What the EFF will it take for "animal lovers" to forgive Vick?

Stay connected for news and updates

I just posted something about this on another fanpost, but I wanna see what other people think about this subject.  I don't think animal lovers can ever forgive Vick for this crime.  That's sad.  

Now I don't think torturing animals is right, but we have to remember he wasn't a child killer or a human killer for that matter.  People just can't let it go.  

I sometimes think we as humans have screwed up values.  We aren't calling for Donte Stallworth's head, or Ray Lewis' to be killed. Should we kill all hunters or people that work at a meat locker?  I mean think about this, people in PETA want Vick dead.  Vick was in talks with PETA to become a spokesman for them? What does that say about them?  He's working with the humane society, traveling around the country talking to people about this matter, and has paid his debt to society? What will it take?

I had an argument at work about this.  A lady told me that you can't blame any dog for being vicious, it's the owners fault and the owner should be prosecuted for having a bad dog. Then i asked her "If your child killed someone or beat someone up, should you the parent be prosecuted for being a bad parent?" her answer laughing "NO!  Why would I be responsible for my child's actions?"  Don't we see how our priorities and values are flip flopped on this matter?  

I'm ok with them if they give Donte a second chance, Ray Lewis, and Vick being given second chances.  Have any of us ever made a mistake that we think we've paid for?  Even if this mistake wasn't that big to us it could be huge in someone else's eyes.  Should you be persecuted for the rest of your life for a mistake you think you've paid for?
