Redemption? I think not. Maybe .... just maybe .... if this clothing line was being produced and funded by him with 100% of profits going toward the efforts to ban all dog fighting and animal abuse, then I would believe in his so-called redemption. But this is simply another way for this dog torturer/murderer to try to recoup some of his financial loss from the fine he had to pay for his abuse of poor pit bulls and breaking the law. There is nothing redeeming about it. I will not patronize any store that chooses to carry this line of misnamed clothing.

Its is idiotic to say he helped them by showing them how to dog fight. Showing someone illegal behavior is hurting them. Mass and Rhode Island wouldn't have banned it if there was no outrage.

They kill greyhounds everyday across this country.It has gotten so bad Mass,and Rhode Island have banned greyhound racing 3 years ago after about 50 years in business..I don't think Vick was fighting dogs for money,just helping his no good buddies and relatives who weren't making a living.

Like I said wishy- washy. If you have a team that's your team. You can't rep two teams thas just the backwards thinking that has you still persecuting a man for actions almost ten years ago. It's funny that of all the people in the world, this man is still a lightning rod for BS PETA followers. Dog fighting has been around for 100's of years. All of a sudden he's the only that gets caught. I understand he's a famous. But let that man live his life!

The man fought dogs. When you drop a dog off at a shelter, if it's unclaimed it gets euthanized, not too much different. You're still killing an animal. You being Jewish (from your user name) should know about the difference between killing a few dogs and mass genocide of a race of people!!

Just a guess. Didn't matter either way! But the nger you have towards this man shows you ignorance. I huess in your mind he should've been locked up for life. never allowed to resume his career or life. You sure live in the right country. Because people don't deserve second chances! It's one thing to not approve of his actions, ot's something else completely to codemn him for putting up money. Yes he admitted to the torture because the dead dogs were found on his property. But you keep trying. AT THE END OF THE DAY ALL HE REALLY DID WAS FINANCE THE BUSINESS!

"I huess in your mind he should've been locked up for life." Nope. Not at all. You're now strawmanning me. 3 fallacies. "Because people don't deserve second chances!" Yes, they do. I support Vick's right to play. I just don't have to like him. "AT THE END OF THE DAY ALL HE REALLY DID WAS FINANCE THE BUSINESS!" And you base this on...what, exactly?

Confession: Today, the puppy I dropped off at the shelter apparently was hemorrhaging from my previous violent kick. Acting quickly, I handed it to a young boy who thought the mutt was adorable. Hah, I hope they press charges on the dumb kid if for no other reason than for talking to and accepting gifts from strangers! By the way, on the way home,I had a hotdog with mustard, relish, onions, and sauerkraut. Do you find it strange that a vegan would partake in meat products?

it was a dog a pet. People in China eat cats. Boil them in water alive. then peeel the skin from their body while their still alive. He fought dogs point blank, which is a cultural norm in the South just like other area of the world have customs that don't appeal to most. You need the education. It's not like he was killing people. The man paid his debt. He's back on top! Doin HIM. So haters will hate. Hate on!!

All those that hate Mike Vick for what he did and paid dearly for should also be angry at everyone involved in the multi-billion dollar business of horse racing as that is also torture that results in the death of many innocent animals.

Red herring! I'm not being the judge of morality. If you want to claim that there's a moral defense to my aforementioned offenses, go right ahead. It further reinforces the depths to which Vick's worshipers will go to defend him. I'm in a position to judge because I'm an intelligent, rational, well-educated person who doesn't accept any position as valid. I'm so very sorry you are not in a similar position.

They do it in the Middle East, too. They also imprison women for being raped, stone them for having affairs, and cut the heads off of foreigners. Shall we give their opinions serious moral weight? We should not. You are, once again, resorting to moral relativism to defend Vick. I already pointed that out once, yet you continue to do it?

I don't depict him as evil. I depict him as a clinical psychopath. He didn't just front the money; he viciously tortured the animals for his own sadistic pleasure. What does it matter that people have done worse? You can use this relativistic logic to defend the second worst person in the world. You think I need counseling? I think you need an education.
