Marcus Vick went ballistic over the George Zimmerman verdict
Marcus Vick is known for sharing strong opinions over Twitter, and nothing elicited a stronger reaction from the former Virginia Tech quarterback than the acquittal of George Zimmerman on Saturday.
Vick started off simply by saying there was no justice done in the case.
So it's ok for me to follow n start a fight with someone, let him beat on me then pull a gun in kill them? #NoJustice

Vick then compared the outcome — Zimmerman being acquitted in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin — to his brother, Michael, going to prison for running an illegal dog fighting operation:
Like I said before, a dogs life mean more then a human of color.

Vick continued to compare the Zimmerman outcome to other situations:
Plaxico shot hisself n did 2 years wtf is going on. #nojustice

Vick then said the outcome of the trial is justification for him to start carrying a gun for protection:
I'm keeping my strap on me. Not gone kill me n walk scott free! #Noway #JustKnow

After that Vick just got completely personal with Zimmerman. It got ugly:
Vick did make some good points, but he got way too carried away. And I’ll also continue to say that introducing more guns to the streets, like Vick wants, will only make things worse.
