If you go walking thru the Bensonhurt neighborhood of New York the locals (almost all Italian) there will have you convinced "Uncle John" was a saint because he did a lot for the community while pillaging everywhere else. Vick has done a lot in the Atlanta community while abusing dogs. THIS is the double standard I'm talking about. I'd rather live next to a guy that drowned a dog than somebody who chopped a guy into pieces and dumped him into the East River in a trash bag.Hengst said:Dialtone - It's a white thing, you wouldn't understand.

Actually white America really doesn't understand why black America gives support to and tries to rationalize away the horrible behavior with-in the black community. It's like we hold totally different values. I think this is one of the fundamental reasons there will always be conflict between the two groups.
I don't think dog fighting is a black thing. I think it's a poor white AND black trash thing.Black America sees nothing wrong with dog fighting, White America thinks it's abhorrent. (Generally, and I stress generally)
