I agree with her. Yes, convicted felons deserve a chance to earn a living and re-enter society in a productive way and we owe them a fair shake. But Vick wants to re-enter professional sports where he would be visible to kids who would be getting the message that what he did really is just a that bad because you can come back and pick right up where you left off. This just reminds me of Bill Clinton who did more damage to the moral standards of a generation than anyone will admit, yet bops around the world earning millions.

Maybe someone can explain to “KIDS” what responsibility, retribution, and forgiveness is all about. There is a greater lesson here.

Hopefully, part of that message would be that if you do something illegal, you will most certainly go to prison, even if you are a famous person.
