If they were so willing to hand out money, I could have just given my address.

I'll throw in my "Amen" too. 10,000 in a fine is chump-change, fine them 100,000 next time and maybe they will start thinking clearly. Maybe.

I guess they think he should not have to follow the laws and/or be punished for breaking them? Or was that even a consideration when they decided to "show their support'? :confused:

Vick is bigger than the law. I'm surprised he was convicted.
