Michael Vick, star football player, role model, and millionaire has admitted to dogfighting and gambling on dogfighting. He will serve his time, he has apologized, and also has been suspended by the NFL. He will likely serve a year in prison.
Through all this, Jessie Jackson, NAACP, and other black organization have failed to apologize to the nation for this black mans racial actions. This action was the same as two black men fighting to their death for the white mans pleasure and gambling. Instead of two Mandingo's fighting it out, he had two dogs. I thought this sport, no matter how it is camouflaged, was banned with slavery. If Jessie and his warriors truly care about the minorities, now is the right time to stand up. This was a racially insensitive act by a black man. In some people's minds, it was just two dogs. Years ago it was just two "niggers". We still haven't learned.
