Needless to say, I have many issues with any group whose own existence seems to be hypocritical of their stated purpose. Nevertheless, it seems as though the NAACP and I have finally found some common ground and a point on which we both agree.
Said the President of the Philadelphia Chapter of the NAACP in response to why he is organizing a massive rally in support of Michael Vick outside of Lincoln Financial Field, "We believe Michael Vick has served his time, paid his debt to society and deserves a second chance and the animal rights groups want to hold him hostage for the rest of his life...We think that's patently unfair. It denies Michael Vick's basic civil rights, denies him his ability to make a living."
If you feel the insatiable need to crucify someone, go after all the rapists, wife beaters, and murders currently playing unscathed within the world of sports. You won't have to search hard. Leave the guy who has actually served his time alone and let him try to make amends.
