Money

I do believe that money changes almost everything. People were discussing about how Michael Vick was in jail longer because we was a black athlete. When people were talking about this all I could think of was Donte Stallworth. He was drunk with a 0.12 above the legal limit of 0.08. While drunk he drove and hit a man. This man died. Donte was only convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 30 days of prison. He only served 24 days and was released after. He is now back to playing football. He killed a man and only got 30 days, this shows that Vick did not get his sentence because of his race but because of what crime he did. People do get more upset about animals then humans. So when it comes to professional athlete's crimes they do not discriminate by race but how bad the crime is.
