I realize this is not a popular position, but Michael Vick was tried and convicted and sentenced for his crimes in a Court of Law, and served real time in an actual prison as a result.
Like it or not, at some point this man deserves credit for paying the penalty and from what I have seen of him, actually repented of his crimes. It would be refreshing to see that sentiment expressed on a site that professes to be filled with the Spirit of Christianity...
Here, here.
I hear what you are saying, but then I look down at my dog, who is always beside me, and I cannot get past what he did. I will never root for him. Sorry if you doubt my Christianity.
Hanging and electrocuting dogs because they would not fight. Taking small dogs/cats off of the street and Throwing them in the ring as Sacrificial bait dogs.
POS Scumbags need to be locked up for life. Just because he served his time don't make him innocent.
You are wrong. Save your Christian compassion for those who have truly repented.

It just means he is now a free man.
His repentance is between him and God.
His rehabilitation is between him and Government.
Me thinking he is scum and wishing him to suffer defeat pain and humiliation is between me and my own conscience - and I think he should be electrocuted, beaten against a concrete floor have his teeth filed off and then thrown in a pit to be torn apart by a savage dog.
