Sign Petition to deny Michael Vicks Courage Award by Block Foundation!

After reading this and signing the petition to deny the Courage Award to Michael Vick, I'm posting on my blogs as well for others to sign.

I am just sickened by the fact that Michael Vick will be receiving a Courage Award from the Ed Block Foundation. He is a terrible choice to be a spokesperson for an organization against child abuse! What is the board of directors thinking by allowing this?

If you haven't heard about this, here is a link to a news story about it:

If you agree that he doesn't deserve this award, go here to sign the online petition against it:

Please spread the word about this, if the public outcry is great enough, maybe the board of directors for the foundation will see the light.

If you are one of the misguided who thinks he has paid his dues, please read this: Michael Vick's unpaid dues: Why dog advocates aren't moving on http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/g/a/2009/11/03/petscol110309.DTL
