      Omni and Dak raise valid points.

      There is raising animals for livestock, and raising animals for entertainment.

      I think there's more than enough crap on television and the internet so that raising animals to kill each other is unnecessary.

      However. I don't like the fact that Vick is being used as a social Martyr. What he did was wrong, and punish the man as you deem appropriate. It doesn't need to be SPLATTERED over the news.

      It seems EVERYTHING is taking away from the frikkin important shyt in our country, like the impending election, the fact that I only see 85% of what I make, while someone in a higher tax bracket sees 98%, the fact that they're STILL keeping our troops in Iraq by relying on Beurocracy and red tape, the fact that we want National healthcare but can't rely on the government to supply us with clean tap water...

      But no. The media wants to focus on a Referee.

      I love this country, but I hate the media.

      And lobbyists.

      If we don't like something, collectively, if our hatred for it throbs like an abscess beneath every thread, does that mean that they're doing something right?

        Simple, people love drama, adore scandles and hate listening about the government's moves unless they screw something up. Nothing that IS important as what you state is as entertaining as what the media MAKES us watch. If it doesn't sell by the dozens, it gets shoved aside for something else that would. Like this is old news, but a good example. Delorean arrest for drug charges, front page. People to this day thinks he went to jail and still is in it, unless they read the back pages when he was aquietted,(never did jail time). And I got that example from modern marvels when they were showing the new DMV located in Texas for "new" cars.

          Things like Community service, Social Outreaches and all sorts of things never make the news.

          Like my organization for instance, we're sidenotes in the papers (if we're lucky) when we're doing one of our numerous community service programs, or when we make something positive out of negative social situations, as our Guide Right program does. But last year, some bros down in Florida did some reckless stuff (that nationally, no one agrees with) and KAΨ was under fire federally and it was all in the papers.

          People want to only highlight the bad, and then complain about things, but no one wants to make a change.

          Oh yeah, and I hope that every single person of age on the entire site will vote in the elections (not just the Presidential, but all)

            Rape and Animal Cruelty are disgusting crimes, both of which should be capital offenses. It's completely asinine that people can ask with a straight face which is worse.

              I have been corrected.

              So the pot is indeed calling the kettle black on this one. GJ PETA. Now you're hypocrits just like the Tobacco industry.

              Because as we all know, nicotine isn't addictive and tobacco isn't dangerous. (well, technically, the AIR isn't even safe to breathe anymore..)

                  capital offenses
                  Capital punishment is retarded.

                  A life sentence with daily torture is much more effective in discouraging crime.

                    Too many problems in this country, sadly. It's easy for someone like me to sit on a high horse and say that instead of jail, we should be focusing on education and activism in the communities, but honestly, there is a lot of that going around.

                    The problem isn't in what people are doing, it's not in their intentions. The problem is the social structure. The problem is the media continuing to keep the country as it is and to shape our stereotypes, twist our words and affect our thinking.

                    Point: Look at Obama. He's a great person, but apparently, he's "not black enough."

                    Like all of a sudden, not subscribing to urban mannerisms and stereotypes is a measure of one's ethnicity. My apologies for ranting. I love this country but I hate so many things about it.

                    In a place where the nation can herald Guilianni as a "hero," and try to push to African Americans that Obama "isn't black enough," things are already way too messed up to care whether or not Vick should go to jail and be a social martyr for the political agenda of a group of people who are hypocrites.

                      I was thinking about this thread earlier and got Danger Zone from Top Gun stuck in my head. Dogfights are some of the best damn entertainment human beings are capable of producing.

                      Btw, death sentences are a hell of a lot cheaper than life ones.

                        I disagree, TM.

                        Bumfights FTW.

                        Oh, yeah, i agree with the life/death sentences thing, but there are definitely some people wrongly incarcerated. But I think I've ranted enough in this thread.

                              To note of social structure. It's parents lack off or worsing there of being examples of role models to display good social habbits and exersice ethical, rational common sense to their kids. Each generation gets worse, and parents are more lazy to disapline their children, thus the cycle continues digging the grave of society. People blame the government for this, but its really their own fault for not providing the values needed. Any worse, and we'll see porn dumbed down to the level of 4Kids TV and movies rated R just for saying heck. >_>;;;
