Own up

 

     Is it just me or is anyone else completely bugged about how celebrities get away with breaking the law?  If Every-Day-Joe-Blow pulled any of this rehab instead of standing before a judge for sentencing crap, you know darned well the cops would have him in cuffs before he drew a second breath.

     Celebrities are only people who have more money and press than the average person has.  They are not above the law.  When they break the law, they should serve the full term given to them by a judge.  Fame is not and should not be a get out of jail free card.  In the case of some famous people, I think I’ll add ‘grow the hell up’ to the mix.

     I don’t care who you are, own up and make payment.  If it is jail, serve the time, if it is fines write the checks.  Did the judge order community service?  Do it. 

     What does this teach the young people?  Do you want your children or grandchildren to look up to famous people who have no respect for our laws?
