    Portis is my boy, get off him, all he was tryin to say is that theres bigger problems, and we only care bc its Mike Vick, and the media is a big part of this
     
  2. still tho the way that these dogs are being treated is absolutely horrible, these fighting dogs are put into rings with beagles to kill them and develop that instict... does that not sound wrong, having a dog that is very kind natured bought to be killed by another dog??

    Hate to correct you twice in a week, BP, but that article is about their immediate apology, it's about a week or so old. Yesterday, I believe, Portis "apologized" again. He basically said that he didn't know that animals were so important to so many people, and he should have known better before he spoke about it.

    Neither time was an actual or sincere apology really given.

    I think it's relevant for discussion because it's a statement on public opinion of dog-fighting. Clearly, a lot of people think it's ok. I, for one, do not, and am surprised that someone can think it's "not a big deal."

    Yea, it's a big deal to me... also there are a ton of clear stats (for you stats lovers) that say cruelty to animals shows a strong trend of developing into violent behavior towards humans. There's a reason it is a felony, while most drunken assault charges are misdemeanors. Portis' comments might just be ignorance, but the public is now clearing up the confusion by stating it isn't acceptable.

    Eh, it's no worse than chicken fights but nobody cries about that. (ok, maybe a few)
    People get Pit Bulls mostly to have a tough dog that can rip things up. Some try to play the good guy and act like they're all about saving the Pit breed. It's almost funny. What's so great about that dog other than how much of a BAMF it is?
    I don't condone dog fighting at all, but I mean. It's a Pit owner. What do you expect from the "my dogs so bad" guys. This is stereotypical, i know, but there is a lot of truth in stereotypes.

    Well, I don't complain as much about chicken fights, but they're just as bad. I'd be against any kind of animal fighting that I can think of, they're all pretty cruel.
