On Tuesday, July 17, 2007 Atlanta Falcons Quarterback Michael Vick was federally indicted on charges of operating a dogfighting ring (called Bad News Kennelz) out of a home he owned in Virginia. He is also charged with breeding and training the pit-bulls to fight. When the home was searched 66 dogs were seized, as well as "materials commonly used in dogfighting." Additionally, the remains of several dogs were found buried in the backyard of the home. Court Documents indicate that dogs who lost fights were put to death by drowning, strangulation, electrocution, hanging or shooting. If you believe Mr. Vick has abused his position as a public figure and role model and would like to see him suspended from the Falcons until his guilt or innocense can be determined in a court of law, please sign this petition.

The details coming out about these dogs are sickening. We are keeping the pressure on the Falcons to act while the legal case unfolds.

He needs to be suspended until this is settled. You cant just ignore something this sick and keep playing like nothing happened.

Falcons need to grow a backbone and cut him loose. Zero tolerance for dog fighting period.

Disgusting. How could anyone do that to defenseless animals. He should be fired immediately no matter how good he is at football.
