Michael Vick is a thug and why should he benefit and make $$ off of something he did which was so horrific? All you need to do is watch 'Animal Cops Houston' on the Animal Planet channel to see how the dogs that are found that have been dogfighting are kept in squalor conditions with no food or water BUT worse than that, they are sliced and diced up, bleeding and left for dead (if they didn't win).
I beg of you all, if you love animals as much as I do, you will let your voices be heard.

It's important to get the facts right, especially when asking people to boycott a business. While it is true that he is marketing a clothing line, from what I have read it will be sold only through a sports apparel chain called Modells. I have not been able to find any information that he will be selling it through JC Penney. Also, by the standards we set in our justice system, he has paid for his crimes. Additionally, he works very hard for the ASPCA and other groups to end dog fighting and other acts of animal cruelty. I am a dog lover and believe that what he did was despicable, but I believe he has paid for his crimes (more than any other animal abuser in history) and has reformed and should be allowed to go on with his life.
