Keep Michael Vick Out of the NFL!
Target:
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell
Sponsored by:
Michael Vick has been sentenced to 23 months in prison for financing a dogfighting ring and helping to kill pit bulls. Vick initially denied any wrong doing but eventually admitted he was deeply involved in a dogfighting enterprise and endorsed the killing of dogs who did not fight well by drowning or hanging.
Vick's sentence came too late for all the dogs that were killed and victimized as part of his dogfighting activities.
Please urge the NFL to ban Michael Vick permanently. Professional players are role models for children and millions of people and someone with a record of animal cruelty shouldn't be allowed to set a bad example. Dogfighting is unacceptable and the NFL must act accordingly.
Sign this petition to ask the NFL to take a stand against dogfighting once and for all!

We are still outraged by Michael Vick's behavior.
He brutalized dogs and lied about his involvement in a dogfighting ring. Vick's sentence came too late for all the dogs that were killed and victimized as part of his dogfighting activities.
We welcome your decision from last July to ban Vick from training camp while the league investigated the charges against him, but now it's time to ban Michael Vick from the NFL permanently.
Professional players are role models for children and millions of people and someone with a record of animal cruelty shouldn't be allowed to set a bad example.
Animal cruelty is criminal, unacceptable and shouldn't go unpunished.
We need to put an end to dogfighting in our country once and for all. Make sure the NFL acts accordingly.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.

There are plenty other young men out there that can provide the Falcons with football talent AND be a role model for kids and adults. Give someone else a chance. Take a stand now! Let the public know that the NFL is not going to put up with such behavior from its players.

Sport is not just about playing the game but sportmanship. How can someone who supports illegal dogfighting and cruelty be a true sportsman. Bear in mind that sportsmanship came from Britain where honesty and truth was highly prized. Lying and inhumanity does not sit well with any professional sport so ensure that Michael Vick does not return!

If Vick gets to resume playing football I will be absoutly appauled. He knew what he was doing when he was beating, killing and torchering these dogs and he thinks its no big deal. The only reason he is trying to say what he did wasn't right is because the coward got caught. He deserves and anyone that fights dogs need to be slapped with a felony. People need to realize that this won't be tolerated. I think that anyone fighting dogs, participating in anyway including watching fights need to be charged with a felony and given a extream fine. These dogs don't have a choice in what is being done to them, they don't deserve this. If people want to fight, you have a choice but the poor innocent trusting loving dogs do not. This needs to stop and if the NLF allows Vick or any other known animal abuser back then they to me are no better then this heartless crimminal.
