Driving drunk is a stupid and selfish and utterly contemptuous decision, and if you end up hurting or killing someone in the process, you should basically forfeit your life, far as I'm concerned.
But running a dogfighting ring is another animal entirely. To compare it with drunk driving is so ignorant it defies explanation. But I will try, anyway. Organizing and participating in ruthless, stomach turning bloodbaths on a daily basis, where the fighting dogs are starved and beaten daily, and then thrown stray cats and small dogs gotten from "Free To Good Home" ads in the paper to "practice on", and then placed into dark, dank, smelly rings to maul one another to death so greasy, inbred, impotent losers can gamble their rent money and cheer and drool on themselves while they watch, well, that's the stuff of horror movies. Anyone who even for a second defends this type of behavior is either a serial killer or a Republican.
Someone who claims to have so many rescued pets should understand the outrage people are displaying here. But perhaps you're just an animal collector and nothing more. Hey, don't sweat it. You're in good company.
EDIT: Sorry, Huuuuge Bills, I failed to see your post. I'll leave my rant up for posterity sake, but suffice to say, DITTO.
