only backgroundI'm a wife, mother and grandmother. I'm opinionated. I contradict myself frequently. Most of all, I love my kids. I believe in them. I fight for them. They're weird and wonderful. If you want to know more, here's a bunch of other stuff from my old site.
I know that we’re supposed to wait until Michael Vick’s guilt or innocence is determined in a court of law. However, our court system, while the best in the world, is not infallible. Since I’ve already voted with my dollar many times when I’ve bought products that Vick endorsed or had his name emblazoned on them, then I believe I have a right and an obligation to speak out now. Naturally, Vick won’t be fined or imprisoned unless the courts find him guilty. Until then, I’m speaking out as are other bloggers.
My friend Brett has launched a website that calls on bloggers to join together toSack Vick. This campaign aims to let the the government know that we’re watching and we care about the outcome of this trial. It also lets the NFL, Nike and others know that until this is settled, we are not supporting Michael Vick or those who are associated with him.
Dog fighting is NOT a sport. Dog fighting is not the same as boxing or wrestling. People have choices, these dogs do not. People place these loving animals in situations that require that they fight or die. When one dog loses the fight but remains alive, they are killed by electrocution, drowning or hanging.
Anyone who thinks dog fighting is a sport is either terribly naive or just as morally bankrupt as those who engage in this activity. If you are ignorant of the facts, please educate yourself by visiting the Off The Chain website and purchasing the video.
I encourage all bloggers to post about the SackVick campaign. We bloggers have become a powerful force and with power comes responsibility. Today, that responsibility is to speak out for those unable to speak for themselves.
Please consider joining us by posting about it on your site. SackVick.net is updated often with all of the latest developments. Bookmark it, Digg it, pass it on to your readers.

As founder of an organization seeking freedom for America’s chained dogs, I thank you so much your crusade to Sack Vick, your links are wonderful, and I was glad to see the information on Off the Chain.
