I know that there are some that will not understand where I'm coming from on this but I'm going to say it anyway. Vick has not admitted much. Please, please don't take this as I'm saying he's innocent because I'm not but I've known guys in other situations where they took deals for things they were innocent of because they knew that if it went to trial and they lost (and in this country, we should know by now that anything can happen at trial), they would get far worse.

But to the original point, u are right. This is not the case to stand behind. The NAACP is a very hypocrital organization. They try to make it seem like they are speaking for all black people when in actuality, they are speaking for very few. Same goes for Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. I don't know who voted them the unofficial president and vice president of black America.......but I'd like to demand a recount.
