Yeah but you want Vick to lose his job so I take it you want all offenders to lose their jobs. People that get DUI's, for the most part, don't lose theirs. That kind of mentality creates a welfare state where these offenders can't find work and end up on SSI. Who pays for that? We do. It's a little overboard, don't ya think?
