Campaign Mission

Why?

We are joining in the campaign to have Michael Vick Sacked from the Falcons, the NFL and dropped by any corporation that might endorse him today.

When we say sacked, we mean that he should immediately be suspended from the Falcons and the NFL without pay. If he is found guilty in court or pleads guilty to any of the charges confronting him, he should be permanently fired regardless of the price that the Falcons might have to pay to end his contract early.

Update - Vick did admit guilt and the evidence was heavily against him. The NFL and the Falcons have still not taken permanent action.

Innocent until Proven Guilty does not absolve Responsibility

Michael Vick iswas innocent until proven guilty of all the charges that are named in the indictment. Admitting guild does not absolve him from the responsibility of allowing dog fighting to take place on his property. We are holding Vick responsible for the dogs in his care that have been killed, tortured, harmed or euthenized.

His responsibility for these animals is the reason why we are campaigning to have Michael Vick sacked from the NFL and the Falcons.

From here out, we will accumulate news stories, petitions, videos and all materials we can find in relation to this case and campaign. We will let the courts and the public make up their own minds. We will push this campaign but feel the argument we make in this statement is sufficient.

Update - Along the way more than just the dogs were harmed in this endeavor. Several of Vick’s co-conspirators went to prison. His team and team mates and the fans of Atlanta suffered a great deal. But even more important, the gambling and dog fighting ring in which participated had one member that was murdered a few days after the Federal government seized Vicks property last April.

This is not just about dog fighting and gambling. It is actually about illegal activity that has led to murder, the murder of a human. This murder is still unsolved and seems to be getting the cover up by the participants in the gambling ring. Vick did plea too many lesser crimes, but as part of that plea agreement he failed to comply with the requirements of the deal. That could be because Vick has been threatened by the killers or it could be because Vick has some relationship with the people that committed murder shortly after his life was turned upside down. Maybe that happened out of retribution or as part of a cover up for other crimes. Currently, we do not know anything other than the fact that Vick did not comply with his own plea agreement.
