Civil Rights Groups To Rally Around Eagles QB Michael Vick

The Philadelphia chapter of the NAACP, the Black Clergy of Philadelphia and other local civil rights groups are planning a massive demonstration to support Michael Vick at Lincoln Financial Field on Thursday, when Vick is expected to make his debut with the Eagles. "We believe Michael Vick has served his time, paid his debt to society and deserves a second chance and the animal rights groups want to hold him hostage for the rest of his life," J. Whyatt Mondesire, president of the Philadelphia chapter of the NAACP, said Wednesday. "We think that's patently unfair. It denies Michael Vick's basic civil rights, denies him his ability to make a living." Mondesire said about a half-dozen groups from around the Philadelphia area were planning to meet at the front of Lincoln Financial Field and begin a march around the stadium prior to the Eagles' preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

So if they got into a fight with PETA who ya takin?

 

what a phoney POS this group is, especially this dirtbag in the philly chapter. where's the massivse protest when the normal guy coming out of prision gets denied employment ? why arent they protesting over every job application out there that has a question on whether you were convited of a felony ?

phoney freaking crap. besides, how has vick been denied anything ? he has a freaking job right ? in the nfl right ?

bullcrap.

 

This is the same guy who said that McNabb wasn't acting black enough a couple of years ago. I hope them and PETA all kill each other in a war tomorrow night.

 

seriously though, what the heck are they demonstrated for ? he has not been denied anything. maybe they feel he should've gotten $2mil instead of $1.6mil for the 1st year ? feel he should be #2 on the depth chart perhaps ?

what horrible injustice has been brought down upon vick that the NAACP feels a need to protest ?

lucky this is just a pre-season game where most of the people there get their tix from the season tix holder. if it were a regular season game they would get trampled.

 

lol not acting black enough

 

Why is that funny BiTB? Can you relate?

What I want to know is... how long till we have the reverend Al up in the booth? I am sure he's done dry humping Michael Jackson's corpse by now.

 

Wouldent saying not being black enough be racist against your own race?

 

I think it's called ignorance.

 

PETA would win in a fight. PETA is bad butt...Civil Rights Groups...that is so 60's...the Civil Rights Groups could wind up fighting amongst themselves.

 

:Loco:

Rep.

 

The NAACP group is now saying that they probably won't be there since the animal rights groups aren't planning on having a protest.

 

"Ohhhh, noooooooo, we're not going to be there." Whispers to buddy: I think they're buying it...

"Cool, then we ain't going either." Whispers to buddy: Those motherheckers are tryin' to play us!

 

:icon_lol:

 

You think these losers actually have friends?

 

LOL

PETA = People Eating Tasty Animals :icon_cheesygrin:

 

Good point...

 

Not 'man's best friend' apparently.

 

I'm gonna go hug my dog.

 

We can not let this happen. Those two groups going at it would be funny not to have on Youtube. Add in the eagles fans and you could the making of something great.
