I Really Liked What Vick Had To Say...

BIG PS

"personally i have no knowledge of how others react/care about who does what. seems to me that it is in large part what the media plays up. i know for a fact that they even make things up. ( experience ) "

part of what i mean here is that if we think people don't care about something or do REALLY care about something.. sometimes we only have that understanding by what is reported to us.

need to make this really generic as it's hot button but... there were two rallies by two groups at the same time in the same place. well, across a city square from each other. the "no" side was a huge group and the "yes" group was small. however, in the televised version of this event the camera work was done such that it appeared the opposite re numbers of attendees. just one small point of the whole story but you get the idea. if we see that shown, that may be the only perception we have of that event. lots of "yes'" and a few "no's".. so then we think the public is demonstrating much more support than opposition.

geeezzz... this is getting all balled up and am not getting it right. oh well... but have to leave this because it attempts to explain the above..

is Vick the dog guy? I just saw his "everyone makes mistakes" and "I found God" speech...

Sounds just like everyone else that gets caught and wants a free ride.. what's he going to do next, go to rehab with Paris?

What a crock of poo.

And Brick--him being black has everything to do with it.

Like I said, if it was Dan Marino doing this, a lot of Floridians would have a whole different opinion.

Denying racism doesn't make it go away:

The entire white community is outraged over OJ's acquittal, but not about Robert Blake's.

It's hard to do at tmes, but we have to all really look at these realities for what they truly are, without the BS and racism, and look into our very flawed souls.

Sure there is racism... But, I don't think it was a major factor in Vick's case. Of course, what do we really know about it, or anything for that matter... It is all filtered through our biased news media. Most people I know are outraged by Robert Blake's acquittal. He is no better than OJ. His wife was a nut case bigtime. He blew her away and got away with it.
