Poor Michael Vick

He will be put in a totalitarian socialist prison for five years for killing dogs he owned (not something I like, but hardly a federal case). He also faces financial ruin and a state court persecution. And now Burt Blumert tells me that he will be forced to attend a PETA reeducation camp. That's People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the group that famously holds "a rat is a pig is a boy," that is, that a rodent is equal to a human in rights and moral standing. I once debated a PETA official. She agreed with the founder of PETA that "we shouldn't talk about Auschwitz, since more than six million broiler chickens are killed every day in the US." Michael, maybe you can arrange some fights among PETA members and take bets.
