Texans Player Kareem Jackson Under Fire for Tweets About Watching Cockfighting in Dominican Republic

Texans corner back Kareem Jackson under fire for tweet about cockfighting in Dominican Republic.

First Michael Vick came along with dog fighting and now we have Texans corner back Kareem Jackson tweeting about a cockfight he attended in the Dominican Republic and and then he posted pictures of the event.

“My first time ever seeing chicken fight till the death it was crazy,” Jackson wrote in one tweet. “Look at all these people that be at these chicken fights, you would think it’s a college football game.” Source: KHOU

I'm sure PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) will have something to say about these comments. I should add that cockfighting is legal in the Domincan Republic, but it speaks to poor judgment on Kareem Jackson's part to be so flippant about such an inhumane sport.
