Because Dogs Rule!

I'd like to take a moment and thank Michael Vick for bringing the bright, bright media light to the seedy underworld of dog fighting. I've been hesitant to comment on this topic, as it is almost impossible for me to remain objective. But, I am so glad that Vick's acute ignorance and penchant for torture ushered the minds of millions into a position of having to face the reality of what dog fighting is really all about. And if his story does shift the awareness of the general public to the point that law enforcement will no longer be able to "dismiss" this kind of crime, then Michael Vick accomplished in a single moment what animal activist groups have been trying to do for years. So, thanks Mike--I hope you lovingly remember all the dogs you tied to the "rape stand" as you serve your time in prison. I'm not sure how justice could be more poetically served.

P.S. If you have a pet, go find them right now and let he/she know how much you love them. Thank you!
