No punishment out side of him having done do him what he did to those dogs would please me.
He is a heartless thug that thought he was above the law and because he was so stupid he let himself get caught.
Sure there are millions of dog fighting king pins that never get caught, but no matter how ignorant they may be they have to be smarter than Vick.
You can't teach a person monster like him to have compassionment so he will never think he did anything wrong.
I 've heard people say that humans have a short memory and they will forget what he did and will want him back in the Football League.
Well, I can tell them I will never forget and there are millions of other animal lovers out there will never let him forget what he did and will do everything in their power to make sure he never forgets.

  I'm guessin' that you black, and if you are, you are a disgrace to our people!!!!!!! How dare speak so foully of Superman Mike Vick. He is the greatest quarterback EVER! The racist white power structure did him in as well as a snitchin' no good reneck cop from VA who just had to volunteer information. the black sheriff as well as the black DA of Suffolk county blew those allegations off, AS WELL THEY SHOULD HAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!! cONTACT ME at blackjihadi@yahoo.com. i used to have dog, a german shepherd, i paid 500 dollars for him and i used to kick him whenever he made me angry. A dog is just a dumb animal, and i would kill a dog if he ever bit me.

I completely agree with vladimir99, especially regarding the community service. This "man" is sorry he got caught, feels bad for himself and has a sheer disregard for lives of animals. He slaughtered, hanged, ELECTROCUTED, (which I did not know-damn), tortured and mutilated dogs, MAN'S best friend. He is an ignorant pig. Do you know what they do to kids who harm animals? They label them as potential sociopaths. I know this goes on. He is in the spotlight, already holier-than-thou. And then he displays a gross overt action of, not poor judgement, it's evil. I personally do not like football, but love kids and they have a moral obligation to the kids. And yes, perhaps a job at Pet Smart might do the trick! In his mind he did nothing wrong. He's a monster. Prison won't help. He's a friggin hero in there..............

The full five years would have been more appealing to me as a sentence. This man really never admitted "guilt," just poor judgement, and even that was only under intense pressure. He has learned nothing, and failing discovery, would still be pursing this activity today. In honor of the animals he tortured and killed, and not only dogs-- but the countless and nameless animals he supported being tortured and killed for use as "bait" and training animals-- his sentence should have been longer. I would have liked to see a substantial community service sentence tacked on to his 23 months, at the least.
