Thanks, Hoppy.

I think you're right. I hope he hangs hangs himself. I mean that figuratively but I'm good with literal too.

I just the interview again to try to be more objective but nope...there's a definite smirk going on.

<r>Here's a video from May 2009 showing some of the adoptable dogs from Vick's dogfight ring. My theory on the beagles is that they would have been used as fight training bait rather than as aggressors themselves. Beagles are loving dogs who aim to please which off topic, is one reason why vivisecti...

<t>I suppose they blamed the dog instead of the mother. It is thought that infants and young kids make noises similar to prey and dying animals, thereby triggering a dog's natural prey drive and sometimes pack instinct if they're travelling in company. I keep saying there's a *reason* the...

That's excellent. And a pox on the jerk who said it wasn't a child so he wasn't a hero. What a dumbass.

I hope this guy has an easy life.

<r>That sounds good Flop. I'm glad you bought Dummies too. Do you like to cook? I can recommend some diabetic cookbooks. Metformin is generic for Glucophage. It lowers your sugar. My glucose at the beginning was something like 533. It was in the 500's anyway and they just put m...

You know Ducks, when the Vick thing first started, people were sending their Vick jerseys and shirts to their local dog pounds for cleaning rags and such.

RedGlitter

<t>Thank you, Peter Lake. Yes, I like Oscar's way of not letting up, especially about animal issues. :-6 It's hard to hold unpopular opinions sometimes, it kind of wears one down but like you said, some things are worth fighting for.There's a price to be paid for sticking your neck out but I think y...

<t>I just heard on tv some fathead commentator practically in orgasmic throes over Vick's return "He served his time and he's a GREAT football player!!!!!!" Does football require many brain cells? I'm thinking not. I'm thinking Vick was a dumb guy who had little other option and I'm think...

<t>I've no desire to stir any pots. As it is, people have kneejerk and often hostile reactions toward me and my opinions, mainly because they don't bother to try to understand. I don't understand why some people enjoy starting trouble on purpose. A good convo is one thing but why would you just want...

<t>Forgiveness is God's job, not mine. If he had killed a child no one would be forgiving. An animal doesn't feel any less pain and is no different. I'm not going to argue that point again, that is how I see it. You want my forgiveness, you'd better earn it and there's nothing...

It leaves too much room for sloppiness and error and presupposes that people will generally either forget to opt out or will otherwise fail to do so which is exactly what harvesters would hope for.
