Vick was never in major trouble with the law that i am aware of, he was a spokesperson for many products, and is a multi, multi millionaire, I would say that if anyone was going to get off it would be that sort of person. There may be a lot of racist acts perpetrated against people in this country, by law enforcement, and otherwise, but i do not think that Michael Vick's indictment is one of them.

Ah, I see it now . I didn't realize the rest of my post got cut off.
I don't know if Michael Vick's indictment was entirely race-based but feel that race often does play a role in these things as well as in other areas of life. That's pretty much what I was trying to say in response to Pan's question he posed to us. So, for example, if it had been Peyton Manning? I don't think the reaction would be as strong. Maybe no suspensions and more of a wait and see attitude.
