Suspend NFL Quarterback Michael Vick for Dogfighting!
Target: Roger Goodell, NFL CommissionerSponsored by: Humane Society of the United States
Last week, a federal grand jury indicted NFL star quarterback Michael Vick and three cohorts on felony dogfighting charges.
The abuses described in the indictment are almost beyond belief, and include a report of Vick being consulted before the execution of the losing dog "by wetting the dog down with water and electrocuting the animal."
The indictment also describes "the execution of approximately eight dogs that did not perform well in "testing" sessions ... by methods including hanging, drowning and slamming at least one dog's body to the ground."
Atlanta Falcons Quarterback Michael Vick should be suspended from the NFL immediately!
The NFL expressed “disappointment” and said, “We believe that all concerned should allow the legal process to determine the facts.” That’s just not good enough. The alleged acts were not petty or harmless; they were nothing short of gruesome and barbaric.
Sign the petition to the NFL today, and tell the league to suspend Michael Vick!

We signed the “Suspend NFL Quarterback Michael Vick for Dogfighting!” petition!

Anyone one who can be so cruel does not deserve to represent the NFL or even be walking the street's

Georgia thru a woman in jail for throwing ice out of her car window - they'd better STICK THE NEEDLE IN THIS GUY. He should die the same death that he made those dogs die.

Cruelty with animals shows his character, no one like him should be allowed to be a sports example.

The way people treat animals is a reflection on their character and their dealings with humans. If this is how he treats animals and that he views their death and suffering as a form of entertainment for him and his friends... then he is the sickest kind of person there is in this world. The suffering that these animals have endured for his pleasure is just sickening.

He should not only be suspended but tried for murder in criminal court and punished as a murderer to the full extent of the law.

Vick should be completely banned from football for life! He should also be prosecuted and sentenced to the maximum penitentiary time. Michael Vick has had more opportunities than most of us ever will, and this is how he presents himself. He should be thrown into a ring of hardened criminals to fight for his life, just like he made those innocent dogs do. I am boiling mad over this behavior. He can not possibly be a human being, because a human being must have a heart to live.Vick needs to visit the Land of OZ, because He surely does not have a heart...

Fooball is nothing more than controlled violence anyway, so it's no surprise this subhuman is involved in animal violence. Vick is a pig!

Whether he is innocent or not.....until the issue has been resolved this man should be suspended from the game of football in light of the fact that these poor animals were found on his property along with the remains of other dogs. Dogfighting is a crime. Thank you. KH

This thug should be in Iraq decapitating people for Al Queda with his lack of humanity. He should be suspended and thrown in a cage with a bunch of pitt bulls with a pork chop around his neck. Human scum. What a waste of skin. Way to break those stero-types Vick.

I cannot believe that every other criminal act by an NFL player results in suspension for at least 1 game... but for this, nothing!! These atheletes who make more money than any actual profession that touches the future NEED TO BE ROLE MODELS - Michael Vick should be suspended if not more. He is only perpetuating the violence that needs to stop among the youth today. The NFL should feel slighted and appalled that he represents them so poorly. #1 Shame on Michael Vick. #2 Shame on the NFL.

I truly believe that Michael Vick should be fired! Sports players are role models and why would anyone want him as one?! Isn't this the way Jeffrey Dahmer started, by abusing animals? What is it that lures these people into doing this? What do they get out of seeing or doing it? This really bothers me! There is a sickness deep down in someone who does what Vick has done and he needs incarceration and a lot of it! FIRE MICHAEL VICK!!!! A long time , but possibly no longer, Atlanta Falcons Fan

FIRE HIM !!!! He has no heart and and what has he shown us, that he is a good role model ??? I think not !!!! I know he has money, but we have to remember that he is a human being like the rest of us and if I were to get caught doing this, my butt would be sent away for a long time. I'm so sick and tired of hearing about celebrities and atheletes getting away with "murder" cause they have money to get out of it. He needs to be FIRED and no kid should ever, EVER, look to these people as role models. This is just a sick, sadistic, and barbaric act to do on any living creature !!!!!
