On Lindsay Lohan's Troubles

On Lindsay Lohan's Troubles

Lindsay Lohan is innocent until proven guilty. She has plead not guilty to a felony theft charge. She is rich, white and famous, and she deserves justice, and as much as a poor minority kid, who found with a stolen necklace in her presence, would receive. What is that? About what? Ten years in jail?

Yes, I'm kidding.

Ms. Lohan is not a poor kid. We can give examples of the rich getting rich people's justice. I am not one who says Ms. Lohan should become the target of those who want to make examples of rich people. We are individuals. We represent ourselves, when we stand before the bar of justice, and not our class. We live in a country where war criminals, if they are well-connected, can start an illegal war and murder hundreds of thousands of people, engage in torture, bring suffering to millions, and not be subjected to the slightest legal reprimand. And so? The accused thief of a $2,500 necklace? Her alleged misdeeds? No sweat?

Ms. Lohan lives in America, where people who have money can hire lawyers, who can make things like felonies disappear, charges, entire cases, all of the evidence. Folks with money can kill someone, unless one kills the wrong person, and walk, and without a slap on the wrist. We have the best justice for the rich that money can buy. And so?

Who knows how this case may spin out? The famous get looked look at closer than the rich and not so famous. And instead of in and out the back door justice, the famous sometimes get trap door justice, when the public literally want to see the turnip bleed blood.

Anyway, I like the young lady's acting, and I wish her luck.
