So...who's gonna be the first to excuse, justify, explain, or "understand" Mr. Simmons based on animal torture somehow being a part of his "culture"? Let's start an office pool. I'm taking Whoopie Goldberg on Tuesday's "The View".

Sorry to sound like a reactionary rethug, but the whole "dogfighting-as-culture" thing sickens me.

1. And that ignorant fuckstick got busted for it once before.

So he can't claim any of that cultural didn't know better bullshit.

Kinda dumb that he's playing the "I had no clue what was going on on my land" card. Worked so well for Mike Vick. :eyes:

2. Your response warms my heart. Seriously. It does.
I got so disgusted by all of the "I'm not condoning Michael Vick, BUT..." bullshit that asked the rest of us to "understand" that animal torture was a part of his growing up, as if that somehow changed ANYTHING. Simmons is 36 years old...whatever he might have seen "growing up" he's has about twenty years to learn that it may actually be antisocial, illegal, or psychotic.

3. Just re-read your post
and noticed your signature lines. I am not currently vegetarian but have been for large stretches of time. If you're ever in Athens GA may I suggest The Grit (www.thegrit.com), the best veggie restaurant ever. If you're not ever in Athens, may I suggest The Grit Cookbook (available through their website and many elsewheres), in which they reveal all, even the recipes you'd've thought they'd keep secret!

5. Thanks!
Feel free to come down to the AR group, you won't find any excusing of animal abuse down there. :) http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=231
