Sorry about this guys. I don't think any letters were written in vain though.
It tells these companies how important we think animals are, which might affect
future contracts for spokespersons.

Please, please make an example of Michael Vick. He is a SICK man, and so many
kids look up to him because of his status as a football player. What kind of
message will you send the future adults of our country if you do not take a
hard stand against what Mr. Vick did to those poor animals? I would like to
see Coca-Cola drop Mr. Vick as a spokesperson for your products. Hopefully,
your companyhas some sort of code of conduct for its spokespersons that Mr.
Vick has violated so you can legally let him go. I hope you will take the high
road by dismissing this spokesperson who is now reflecting negatively on your
company. I also think that offering financial assistance to the organization
that is caring for the dogs that were seized would be an act of good faith on
your company's part. It would show that you really do care about what happened
to these animals, not just about your bottom line.
I am not some crazy animal advocate. Half the time, I think PETA is crazy for
some of the things that their members have done, like throwing food on
celebrities wearing fur coats. I do not advocate that kind of behavior. But I
do believe that the Good Lord appointed us to care for the animals he placed on
this earth, something Mr. Vick does not understand. Sending Michael Vick a
message publicly would go a long way in teaching him this.
Sincerely,
Wendy Escobedo
