And I can see your side of the story 100%, I'm just saying people have killed human life before and gotten off easier than Vick.

I agree with where you are coming from, and don't disagree. I actually think that we are beginning to see the justice system changing practices of the past where celebrity's have been able to buy their way out of trouble. I think most of us felt that Vick would get out of it because of who he was and how much money he could throw at the courts. Interestingly, the Judge (just like the last OJ trial), went for as excessive penalty as possible. This is defintely a change in course.

To your point, historically, others have been treated more lenient. I just feel that possibly the justice system is beginning to "make a point". Now, as to fairness, I just want the justice system to be consistent. I don't want to feel like I will be treated any differently than someone who has the resources to buy themselves out of trouble. So, with that said, I don't feel it is right for the justice system to throw the book at someone because their name carry's fame.

I don't think we are disagreeing on the subject, just two different views of the same thing :Thumbs:
