Well, I agreed with them when they said that Vick was innocent until proven guilty. But now, predictably, they're crying about the treatment of Vick. They continue to prove their irrelevance by acting like this. They decry the "persecution" that Vick. Wonder why they were so quiet and not preaching this type of forgiveness when Imus was screwed?

Because the NAACP does not support the advancement of white people and donald offended a black woman..teh problem in this case is that there is precedent as Tags was not quite as agressive as Goodell is. Goodell is handling all these case much more appropriately than Tagliabue ever did, look at Ray Lewis.. slap on the wrist. Without regard due process will run its course.

So they support the advancement of black people who are (or will be by their own admission) convicted criminals?

No idea what you mean by that, but my answer is clear they would not and do not afford the same advocacy for Imus as they would Vick.. no more nothing less. it is what it is, don't make more out of it. Due process will prevail for Vick as it did for Imus. I do not think Vick will ever play in the NFL again.

1. They claim to work for all 'colored' people, but it's really only just for Blacks.
2. They are not objective, they will defend anyone Black or pull the race card whenever they can, which makes them lose credibility as well as popular support.

I don't really expect them to adovcate for Imus, but they're calling for forgiveness on Vick when they specifically decried Imus as a bigot, wanted him fired, and showed ZERO signs of forgiveness (for something much much much much less severe). They also oppose taking away Vick's livelihood, which again, they wanted done to Imus. They're being very inconsistent. They didn't have to advocate for Imus, but they shouldn't be have called for all of the harsh penalties on one person that they oppose on another.
I've read several messageboards where there is a split on opinion as to what should be done to Vick. My feeling is that anyone who tortures and kills animals has no soul and certainly should not be in a game as dangerous and aggressive as football. Let's remember that Jeffrey Dahmer got his start killing animals.
That said, I suppose there are an awful lot of people out there who figure a dog is just a dog, so they don't regard Vick's crime as serious. I suppose that is how the leadership of the NAACP (as well as many football fans) look at it.

There are people who look at it that way, but that's not where the NAACP is coming from. If Vick was white, they wouldn't be giving him the same benefit of doubt.
The NAACP is like a defense attorney or union spokesman: you can count on them to represent the interests of their "clients" no matter the circumstances. Give their statements the same deference you give an attorney who swears his client was framed.
