Great job Richard. I can't believe lowlifes like that Caraway will do anything to suck up to celebrity athletes. I played major college football and I personally witnessed this kind of activity for five straight years while in college. People would go nuts over the biggest worthless thugs that belonged in jail rather than on the football field. Thank God someone with a voice like yours is willing to take a stand against these atrocities. I gave those aholes at the eagles a piece of my mind too.

This is EXACTLY what makes me love this country. WTG, Richard, for taking an impassioned and eloquent stand against such absurd injustice.

@h2kproductionz The fact that dog fighting is legal anywhere doesn't justify it. The fact that society is inconsistent is no justification for df either. - It tells me that we have more work to do to protect victims of abuse. For the record, you're right about the deer head thing - that's why most people think it's disgusting. I can't help but to question who is more "animalistic" - dogs or those who commit barbaric torture to them.

@h2kproductionz we are not in Mexico!  You dare to compare hunting with drowning, electrocuting, slamming dogs to the ground, hanging dogs, beating dogs????? THANK YOU RICHARD!

Richard Hunter needs to shut his mouth. I was a guest on his show and I would love nothing more then to get back on it. You know Dog fighting is legal in Mexico? Many people are doing it yet its Vick who gets punished and continues to get spit on ALONE! What about killing a deer, cutting off its head and stuffing it and hanging it on ones wall? Our society, many of you, and Richard are very inconsistent in our beliefs in right and wrong. Im ashamed in all of you?!!!

Richard, thank you for standing up against this outrage.

If anyone would like to see how Mel would have ended up if he had not been rescued when he was- google: Gypsy the bait dog, or watch Gypsy's video on youtube. It's no wonder you can still see the fear in Mel's eyes.

To inflict this type of brutality on the most loving and innocent of creatures is a crime against humanity, that is not simply erased by sitting in jail for 18 months.

Richard you are a true hero.You have the guts and integrity to stand up for what is right, unlike so many others.
