[QUOTE="ajblakejr, post: 582406, member: 18807"] :dont_know:[B][/B] [B][/B] I have very mixed feelings about Michael Vick. I do not want to debate his crime. The NFL decided to allow him a second chance. I am okay with second chances. [I][B]However, justice needs to be dispersed fairly.[/B][/I] I heard a statistic recently and I can not verify the source. I was told by the age of twenty five we all know someone that knows someone that lost a family member or a friend KILLED by a drunk driver. I thought about this random stat. I swallowed hard and repressed a tear from falling. My first boyfriend lost his sister to a drunk driver; I had a friend drive drunk, crash and die and I had a coworker that took a life. Donte Stallworth From ESPN: Stallworth, 28, who pleaded guilty to DUI manslaughter in Florida in connection with the March 14 crash in which he struck and killed construction worker Mario Reyes, will be reinstated after the Super Bowl in February 2010, the league said. Stallworth was given a 30-day jail sentence, of which he served 24 days, and reached an undisclosed financial settlement with Reyes' family. Besides jail time, Stallworth's sentence included two years of house arrest, eight years of probation and other restrictions. [B][I]Justice needs to be dispersed fairly. [/I][/B] [B][/B] [B][I]What is just?[/I][/B] [B][I]What is fair?:dont_know:[/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
