F..K Nike! Sadistic Animal Abuser and Torturer Michael Vick Gets Endorsement Deal with Nike: Boycott Nike! Let Me Remind You How Sadistic Vick Is

Do I need to say more? Boycott that disgraceful company Nike who just loves to make Felon Dog Killers rich again! Money over ethics…Nike.

NOTE: JUST ADDED - CALL NIKE - from http://www.facebook.com/pages/Battle-Against-Dogfighting/178489093981 "If you would like to let NIKE know your opinion about their choice to sign VICK as their spokesperson: call Nike: 1-800-344-6453. Choose option 5, then option 9. Let them know how you feel & be the voice for the voiceless animals he victimized!!!! "


BTW Nike and any readers, have you forgotten how sadistic Michael Vick is? Well, just read text below from a blog post we did a while back:

Forgotten How Sadistic Michael Vick is? “Jumper cables were clipped onto the ears of...dogs…connected to...batteries before…tossing...into water"

Oh, and here’s another one:

“Vick did all that and more to his dogs, and even threw family pets into the pit with fighters and laughed while they were mauled, according to a witness who testified to federal investigators.”

Laughed, they said.

It’s sad to think that there are those out there that have forgotten just how cruel, sadistic, twisted, and sick Michael Vick is. My thought is that this is because it had to do with crimes against dogs vs. against kids or people. Let’s all remember that he was convicted of felonies!

And before you say I’m a hater, non-football guy, let me tell you that I coach and play football. I care enough about the integrity of the sport that I’ll clearly say that letting Vick back in to make him and others rich brought the NFL down to a very low level.

OK, now read this:

"The details that got to me then and stay with me today involve the swimming pool that was used to kill some of the dogs," Reynolds wrote on her blog. "Jumper cables were clipped onto the ears of underperforming dogs, then, just like with a car, the cables were connected to the terminals of car batteries before lifting and tossing the shamed dogs into the water."

She continued, "We don't know how many suffered this premeditated murder, but the damage to the pool walls tells a story. It seems that while they were scrambling to escape, they scratched and clawed at the pool liner and bit at the dented aluminum sides like a hungry dog on a tin can.

And, most importantly are these telling statements of truth about how Vick has never apologized for the blatant dog torture:

“Even worse, he's shown no sign of understanding of, or regret over, the fate of his dogs.

"Vick has never expressed one word of remorse for what he did to those dogs," said McClay.

"Not in any of his public statements, and not in his appearance on '60 Minutes.' Vick said he 'let it happen.' He slammed and beat and hung dogs to death. It's like Ted Bundy saying, 'I let someone murder this girl.' He doesn't take any responsibility for it."

Arrogant and Greedy Nike at it Again: This Time Releases Shoe Made out of Crocodile Skin

My question is why use crocodile? It seems that none of the bad press they receive has any affect on them. Perhaps this is why they do it – they simply don’t care and just look to the bottom line. Obviously if they’re now moving to using crocodile, they have absolutely no concern for anything other than money.

If after reading this article you’re disgusted at Nike and want to let them know (not that they’ll care I’m sure) here is the information to do so:

Animal rights groups fuming after Nike unveils new crocodile shoe
by Sun (repost)

Monday Mar 12th, 2007 9:49 AM

ANIMAL rights groups were fuming last night after Nike unveiled £1,400 trainers made from CROCODILE skin.

http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2007110630,00.html


The sports shoes — with 18-carat gold lace tags — went on display at the company’s flagship store in London’s Oxford Circus at the weekend.

The trainers were made to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Nike’s iconic Air Force 1 line.

Shoes are also being made from the skin of the world’s largest snake — the anaconda.

Stores around the world are exhibiting the croc shoe in a glass case while stocking only one pair in each size.

But Nick Rudge, of the National Animal Welfare Society, said last night: “What a horrific and objectionable way of making money — they are croccy horrors.

“It is fashion gone mad and no different to wearing fur.”

Clifford Warwick, a reptile biologist with the Animal Protection Agency, said: “Wild crocodiles are hacked up alive for their skins, while farmed animals are treated equally barbarically.

“If people knew, it would put a lot of them off buying these shoes.

“It is distasteful consumer excess.

“Nike has crossed the line.”

Poorva Joshipura, of ethical animal treatment group Peta, said: “Anyone buying them is supporting cruelty.”

Andrew Tyler, director of campaign group Animal Aid, dismissed the shoes as “the height of decadence”.

No one from Nike was available to comment last night.
