Rock made comments defending Vick on the The Jay Leno Show: "What the hell did Michael Vick do? Pitbulls ain't (sic) even real dogs! Dogs have never been good to black people!" But Rock was up for the lead role in a movie about the life of Richard Pryor, and Pryor's wife Jennifer was not amused. She wrote to Rock:

For your information, Chris, what Michael Vick did was to torture, drown, electrocute and murder dogs all for fun and for profit! He went to prison for felony animal cruelty! That's what he did! . . . These types of comments only encourage abuse and misunderstanding of this breed, as well as actual dog-fighting. Clearly this part of your latest stand-up routine would not make Richard laugh!

Instead, the role reportedly went to Marlon Wayans.

Well, I agree with that. The comment was totally out of line and with no apology, it's even worse. We can all understand comedy performers saying stupid things and regretting it. But no regrets?!? That's really bad.

BUT ... I have a big question I wish someone could answer. WHY does it seem that Vick is the only person in history that has abused dogs and participated in dog fighting? Was he really all by himself when all that was happening? That's the part I don't get. Why is everyone so fired to up hang Vick and nobody else? Now, it would be a better story if they reported arresting whole rings of dog fighting people and giving them maximum sentences. But here it seems they must have had a ring, but all we heard about it is one person serving time.

Now that's something I would listen to Rock complain about.

Let's be realistic. Millions of hens alone in the U.S. suffer horrible lives so Americans can enjoy eggs. Swine, sheep and cattle do not fare much better.

What can we do? I have been flexitarian since May, 1992. We can easily support humane treatment of animals.

Chris Rock should have known better than to make a totally stupid comment like that. Now he's getting a good backlash. Good for him! Maybe now he'll think before he speaks.
