 The animals suffer broken bones, severed legs, and chewed-off ears.
"It's his dogs…if that's what he wants to do, do it," says Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis in his defense of Falcons' quarterback Michael Vick, who is under investigation for allegedly running an illegal dog-fighting ring.
Their faces are crushed by powerful jaws, their eyes gouged by sharp teeth, and their throats viciously and savagely torn out even as they lie prone, dehydrated, exhausted and bleeding to death.
Man's best friend, forced into these death-fights for the amusement of the blood-thirsty sub-humans outside the pit who own, train, and bet on which will suffer the more agonizing death.
"It's his dogs…if that's what he wants to do, do it."
The investigators have not yet been able to secure enough proof of Vick's involvement in the barbarism to charge him, but we do know that 66 dogs,  almost all of them pit bulls, were found last month at a Virginia home owned by Vick, along with a dog-fighting pit, blood soaked carpeting, and equipment commonly associated with dog-fighting. We also know that Portis, not even a teammate of Vick's, seems to have no problem putting his own blood-lust on display in defending the Falcons' QB, and that his attitude may be indicative of a much larger problem brewing below the NFL's seemingly squeaky-clean surface.
An ESPN report airing Sunday on "Outside the Lines" featured an undercover informant who has been involved in the dog-fighting subculture for 20 years. The informant says he personally put one of his dogs up against Vick's dog in 2000 while the then-Virginia Tech star wagered with other spectators on the fight's outcome. More critically, the informant says Vick is not the only professional athlete deeply involved in the blood sport, estimating that at least 20 to 30 others, mostly football players, are in the dog-fight game.
"He's a pit bull fighter," says the ESPN source of Vick. "He's one of the ones that they call 'the big boys:' that's who bets a large dollar…$30,000 to $40,000…even higher. He's one of the heavyweights."
Which means it's time for the king of NFL heavyweights—Commissioner Roger Goodell—to enter this fight. When the league's highest-paid player is being fingered by dog-fighting insiders at the same time his home is being raided, and a Pro Bowl running back is speaking out in support of the quarterback, the league needs to drop the hammer—and quick.
 Portis thinks the authorities are picking on Vick because of his celebrity status: "I know a lot of back roads that got a dogfight if you want to go see it. But they're not bothering those people because (they) are not big names. I'm sure there's some police got dogs that are fighting them, some judges got dogs."
Goodell should drop a half-season suspension on Portis just on general principle.
Vick has shrugged off the investigation, but as the ESPN source detailed, the other dog-fight heavyweights are taking this much more seriously, if only because Vick holds their fate in his hands: "Michael Vick is making large money, he's making millions, OK? And if he has to tell on some people [to avoid prison time], I think he would tell … I don't put nothing past him."
If Vick does indeed roll over on other dog-fighters in order to save himself, and if other players were on hi list, can you imagine the ramifications to the league? Would properly outraged turn away from the game in disgust? Would team owners and/or league officials have the guts to suspend players, including superstars, based on the allegations, incurring the inevitable wrath of the players' association?
The NFL has largely avoided scrutiny on other controversial issues that plague other sports, notably the steroid epidemic, but a large-scale involvement in dog-fighting would do enormous damage to the league. Even if Vick avoids prison time, if he is proven to be even remotely associated with this cruel and inhumane brutality, the commissioner needs to take a firm stand and jettison him from the league. It wouldn't be easy, and it wouldn't be pretty. But it would be the right thing to do.

The immigration battle is on, as the the U.S. senate and the President want to give amnesty to illegal aliens in America, and the House wants to punish them as the criminals they are. But no matter what anyone tells you, do not ever forget the truth about the Mexican agenda.
This truth does not come from the mouth of any American politician, nor does it come from bigots, rednecks, or talk show hosts. The truth comes from the mouths of Mexicans themselves.
Listen for yourself to the clips below (slower connections may take some time to load) and you'll understand--they have no interest in coming to our land to "pursue the American Dream." They don't want to live alongside Americans; they want to replace Americans. To eliminate Americans.

And finally...we have the Latino activists who insist on singing our national anthem in Spanish, and fighting to replace English as our common, unifying language. This is a fight they probably don't want to engage in. Here's why.
