Dude, I've never said that Vick should lose his lively hood, and I hope when his legal troubles are over, that he will be re-instated into the league, and given another chance to play. I'm not a Falcon fan, but dude is exciting to watch, and I'm looking forward to seeing him play again, but he's committed a crime, and he deserves whatever the federal government, and his legal team agree to.
As far as doing my research on my history, I've done it over, and over, again, and I will keep researching it until the day I die. But as a proud black man, I'm tired of people like you, using the white man as a cop out everytime a black person does something stupid.
I grew up in a crime ridden neighborhood, full of the white man's drugs, alcohol, and guns, but there has never been a white man in my neighborhood who said yall have to drink my liquor, you have to sell, and use my drugs, and you have use my guns to rob, and kill your people. Those are choices people make on their own, some choose to go the right way, some choose not too, but in either case WE have a choice.
I lost a brother to the drug game, along with an uncle, a few cousins, and a whole lot of friends, and in no instance did we ever blame the white man. When my dad buried my brother, and his friends came by my parents house to tell my dad they were going to retaliate, my dad told them no, because that's the life my brother chose to live, and it came with the territory. Not "it's the white man, and his guns, and drugs why my son is dead."
I'm not knockinig you on your opinion, that's what you believe, hey man, it's all gravy baby, but Michael Vick had a choice, and he messed up, like we all have at some point in our lives. Some greater than others, but we have to get out of this "It's the white man's fault" mentality when we do.
NICE
