Willie is a good "good ole boy".
Senator Chip Rogers reaction was to ban pits, now he's changed his thinking. Go Willie


Before a recent concert at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nelson took the time to make his feelings known about the brutal industry of dog fighting by shooting a PSA in support of Senate Bill 16. If passed, SB 16, which will be introduced in the 2008 Georgia legislative session, will amend and strengthen the state's dog fighting laws


“My first reaction was to ban pit bulls,” explained Rogers. “But the more I researched I realized these dogs are not to blame. It’s the widespread fighting issue. These guys are creating killing machines. They are the ones that must be stopped, not the dogs.”

Georgia is not the only state in the nation taking a second look at its laws, especially after the Michael Vick case. For Georgia, the home of the Atlanta Falcons, the Vick case may just make it that much easier to finally get the legislation through.

Willie Nelson always seemed to be one of those guys who is for real. He seems decent and he is decent. We could use more celebrities like him.
