In other words I don't want anyone to back off of Vick however I wonder why people have lost so much sensitivity to human suffering.

I agree. But dogs aren't people.
That's my point. Where was it in history where we put more value in animals lives than in our fellow humans?
We really don't get that mad when humans are killed. But we're sure as hell pissed to the point of destroying a young man's livelihood (EVen though it's Michael Vick).
Over a couple of dogs. Or even a few dozen...
So what? They're still dogs. And NOBODY should have to suffer that fate of losing their livelihood over a couple of goddamn animals. Nobody should ever have to suffer the fate of a person not being able to provide for thier kids, family, etc., over a bunch of damn animals.
Just because society has forgotten human life is less precious than "A Dog's"
Life.
Do I think Vick should go to jail? Yes. For 10 days.
Do I think he should lose EVERYTHING?
HELL NO.
They are dogs!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not people. Dogs......
