whoopi goldberg "the view" comments

for those of you haven't heard someone else has weighed in on the vick-non-monster-evil-being side of things. whoopi goldberg dared to say, "I'M JUST SAYING THAT INSTEAD OF JUST SAYING HE'S A BEAST AND HE'S A MONSTER THIS IS A KID WHO COMES FROM A CULTURE WHERE THIS IS NOT QUESTIONED." read full transcript.... http://www.ktu.com/pages/WMVControversy.html?feed=213636&article=2599724

and of course she was blasted for it! now she is the second minority celebrity to speak out and say what majority (not all) the black community feels about this case. no one condones what vick did (which whoopi stated multiple times), but just as whoopi and jamie foxx mentioned in that community dogfighting is not evil, dogs are not viewed as "children". does this excuse these actions NOOOOOOO!!!

all whoopi, jamie and the people of that particular community are trying to say is that, even though they may love animals, and definitely don't kill them, they also don't leave them 12 million dollars.
