Yes, you read that correctly! Next Saturday, the 8th, the “Michel Vick Community Celebration” is “intended to give the city a chance to enjoy and embrace Vick. What?
Has everyone gone mad? Ok, so I know some say we need to forigve Vick. I do have the capacity to forgive. But isn’t it tradition for the person seeking forgiveness to show “true” remorse? Some say he has. Please, if anyone knows where and when he has shown this, please feel free to let me know.
Second, my personal feelings on anything as horrific as to what he has done to dogs is this. I need to feel the remorse and to actually see a changed man to show over time NOT overnight. It takes time to rebuild trust. I think anyone is foolish, if not stupid, to forgive and forget before we have witnessed anything from this man.
I can forgive Vick, but in time IF he shows true remorse. However, to hold a celebration for this man is ludicrous, beyond comprehension and leaves me speechless.
