(1,301 posts)I am one of those people who truly believe we never run out of second chances. I would not be able to work with addicts in the manner I do without that thought process. I have seen some extremely poor excuses of human beings turn into people providing great value to themselves, society, and their families. Those stories are far and few between but I hold on to them dearly. I carry this thought process with me in every area of my life.
Still, Vicks actions cannot be forgotten. It was the perfect situation to highlight dog fighting. Many are using it as a club to beat him with today. I think that is wrong. By most all appearances, he has made dramatic changes to his life. He also had some good works before and during his time overseeing dog fights. When discussed today it should be used as a vehicle to talk about the current state of dog fighting in this country. Using it to condemn Vick to this day goes against how I feel people should be treated.
Thank you for your understanding with my earlier reply.
