Its just racial profiling.How come all they're busting is blacks?

Don't be racist. No where in that article does it refer to DMX as a black man, nor did the reports on Vick. They broke the law. If all you see is the color of their skin, then I pity you.

Im sorry folks but I'm gonna wait for ALL the facts on this one. I would REALLY have a hard time believing DMX was truly neglecting these aminals. I once was accused of aminal neglect for tying my dog out back of my house for 1 hour without dishes.
Understand, I could kill a human being easier than I could kill an aminal, I just think (hope) this story will change upon further investigation.

it said that he left someone in charge of the animals apparently they were not doing there job its funny how people are so quik to blame after this vick situation.i say wait to hear what he has to say before you start blaming,i just find it hard to believe some one who has 12 dogs and a rather wealthy status to just go out of town and not have his dogs looked after.

I agree with FBR that it isn't a race issue...perhaps a cultural one? or just slimy people who can't treat animals well.

Chron...I've read back on this issue....the man's been warned MORE THAN ONCE about his animals being neglected....and has had the EXACT SAME issue come up at least twice in his past....sorry.....you only get once in my book.....and even the once had better have a pretty good reason.

I think you folks might be surprised at the amount of ignorance people have (yes, today) about animals.....it's much MUCH more than I would have thought before I went into veterinary medicine. Luckily....I see that changing as I get older..... FBR's statement about different leaders (mostly of race issues) banding together on this issueis a wonderful example. Now really....how often does THAT happen? I love it!!!!!!!!

Another piece of shit dog fighting promoter, I hope he gets a full 5 year sentence just like Vick and even that would be too nice for them. What kind of a piece of shit can do that to living animals.. I hope more of these scum get caught and arrested.

lmao damn people read the article....there's no evidence of dogfighting. He's accused of negligence. Before you all railroad the guy, wait until the facts come out. I think this is more a case of a failed job by whoever he hired to watch the dogs while he was away from home...course a lot of that responsibility falls on him still. I think this vick story got everyone from the media to the public to the spca whipped up in a frenzy

how is he a dog fighting promoter? i never once heard dmx promot a dog fight, it even says in the report no evidence of dog fighting was found.he hasent been charged with anything he has not been home for a couple months and left someone in charge and clearly they were not taking care of them so why are you automatically blaming him why not the care taker?im not saying that this is any way for a dog to be treated and IF he is responsibe then i agree he is a piece and deserves punishment but he hasent even elaborated on the situation yet,so all im saying is wait untill you hear his story dont just automatically think its another vick.

The issue is more basic....hello??? Humane treatment of animals. How hard is that not only to grasp but how many warnings do you need before you get off your ass and make sure your animals are taken care? Anything else is a bullshit excuse.....he wasn't there....he didn't know (AGAIN after several warnings and a ticket)....try reading and you will be amazed that there are plenty of facts already "out." He himself pleaded guilty to animal neglect in the past. ....that poor, rich black man.....spare me.

Dont be silly.

Colour of fucking skin makes no differnce to law, if your white, black or even fucking blue and you break the law you'll get the same treament.

EVERYTHING these days get's turned into something about the colour of someones skin when it has nothing to do with it in the first place.

[Weedhound]

I'm with Lip and that's why I pointed out that even the "race leaders' seem to agree on this issue.....don't treat animals badly. Seems no matter what color you are people don't like it if you're mean to animals... :thumbsup::thumbsup:
