NFL players Clinton Portis and Chris Samuels are now defending the troubled Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick over his alleged involvement in dog fighting.
Defending Vick isn’t a douche move, but for a grown man to say that dog fighting is a “prevalent” part of life in 2007 is.
CNN.com has this quote, “I don’t know if he was fighting dogs or not,” Portis sais. “But it’s his property; it’s his dogs. If that’s what he wants to do, do it.”Â
Portis’ statement makes me really wonder what his belief on how correct it was for colonial era slave owners to treat their property inhumanly, let alone the killing of their property. Would he be all gung ho with this “do it” mentality? I think not.
