I looked but could not find any redeeming qualities in any of the participants in this story.
Happy New Year FR!
Speaking of pork, I just received this email:
TEXANS CAN CONTRIBUTE A LOT
TO THIS EFFORT!
Plant a pig
Please donate to your local “Plant A Pig Foundation” today. Not tax deductible, but well worth the effort. In Spain , at Seville some local people found a way to stop the construction of another mosque in their town. They buried a pig on the site, making sure this would be known by the local press. Islamic rules forbid erecting a Mosque on “pig soiled ground”. The Muslims had to cancel the project...this land had been sold to them by government officials... No protests were needed by the local people ... and it worked!! Not dummies …. the Spaniards. They found a solution !!! No protests needed!
In Texas they have an over abundance of feral pigs. They could send them all over the country and just plant them everywhere! After all…contaminated soil would surely drift and they could create new job programs by having soil testers to determine where contaminated soil existed. Of course, high on the mountain tops of the Rockies or other mountain ranges they might find some uncontaminated soil, but then…building a mosque there would pose some problems…Americans…put on your thinking caps and let’s find a solution to this problem of a spreading menace to the American way of life! If pigs are the answer…let’s do it!
Your Committee for the Betterment of America
Let’s keep this going….send it on!
Vic seems to have been a picky eater. Sure, he softened up the dogs, and then killed them but neither he nor his guests ate them.
So, if Vick eats pork, he’s even more evil than before?
Did this subnormal idiot get a chance to see the pictures of some of those dogs that were removed from Vic’s property? If I live to be a thousand I will never forget the look in the eyes of one of those dogs with festering wounds and scars all over.
Kellerman allowed that Vick “committed a moral crime in addition to a legal crime,” but that “not nearly as many as you think” have “moral standing to point the finger at Vick.”
On this point he’s absolutely right.
A country that murders 1.3 million children a year has no moral standing to get self-righteous about Michael Vick. If the people who are upset at Michael Vick invest even 10% of their moral indignation toward Planned Parenthood, maybe there wouldn’t be 1.3 million abortions.
Sad. We don’t have to be a PETA, vegan type extremist to acknowledge that there’s inhumane treatment of food animals. I’ve always heard that pigs are very intelligent. I don’t think I could have a pet pig and continue to eat bacon.
How big are the chickens on Kellerman's home planet?
Kellerman advocated for boxer James Butler Jr. to receive minimal punishment and no criminal prosecution after sucker punching his opponent, Richard Grant in 2001. The fight was over, the decision announced and their gloves removed. Butler acted as though he was going to congratulate Grant and then hit him with an overhand right. Grant suffered a broken jaw.
Kellerman publicly argued for Butler to not receive a lifetime ban and not be criminally charged. Butler was suspended and prosecuted for aggravated assault.
In 2004 Butler murdered Max Kellerman's brother and torched his apartment to cover up the crime. Butler had been bunking at Kellerman's brother's apartment while he was trying to get his career back on track. Butler was convicted of voluntary manslaughter and arson in a plea deal.
Pork? Heck, if you eat at many Korean or Chinese restaurants don’t complain about Michael Vick.
THAT SAID, there is a world of difference between sacrificing an animal for meat, relatively humanely, and doing what Vick did to those dogs, which was beyond cruel. This whole idea that you have to be a vegetarian to care about animals is a false dichotomy.
Yeh I never heard of hanging the pigs to death or electrocuting them and then smashing them agains’t a concrete wall.
Vick can get a second chance, it just shouldn't happen as a starter in the NFL.
It's like singer Chris Brown, the infamous woman beater, whining about people not buying his music any more.
Certainly a symbiotic relationship. Civilization required agriculture and domesticated animals. Dogs guarded the animals, helped herd them, etc. And also helped with the hunting.
