ANYONE who is defending him isn't going to use it as an object lesson for their kids. I also imagine that there are people of all races who are defending him. There are a lot of countries where it is not only legal but highly pursued.

Comparisons to hunting are riduculous. Hunting is an absolute necessity now. With urban sprawl and the elimination of almost every natural predator in most places in the US, the deer population would be out of control and we wouldn't be able to keep crops safe from being picked apart by them.
And most people who hunt deer, eat their kills. Something tells me Vick has never had a Presa Canario steak.

You're missing the point, BB, or seem to think my point was something other than I intended.

Yeah, that's something I have noticed. The people defending him really don't think he's done anything wrong, I heard one person call into talk radio and say that dog fighting should be legal, saying that a lot of dogs that have been made into pets are going against their natural instinct.

I got your point, I just noticed that it was somewhat demeaning and wanted to correct it

If you thought it was demeaning, then you completely missed the point.
