Voted : justice in this country is out of whack
*Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay* out of whack. As for what to do about it, I have no idea. I have several friends who are lawyers, and many of them crusade to have the statutes updated constantly. But they say that this, like all things, takes time.
That's f*cked up, but bear in mind the celebs on your list were probably FACING long sentences too, before the going through the court, but just didn't receive them. Odds are though you'll turn out to be right, we'll just have to wait and see. Did he ask for any other offences to be taken into consideration? Lol, sorry couldn't resist.
^ that's just it though. the sentences handed down for the offenses of lohan, richie and hilton were what i said - 23 days, 82 minutes and 1 day respectively. the law stipulates that the maximum for each is in the years, not minutes or days and the minimum is at least a year. they got off.

There are too many crazy people in authority positions.

^ Too many corrupt people in authority positions. Behind the scene deals, DAs and defense attorneys in cahoots together, grand jury members rigging arraignments on the suggestions of judges, etc... And that's just in the small town that I grew up in. As mentioned in another ballot somewhere, my neighbor got caught with his 3rd DWI in as many months and never served over a day or so in jail. Where's our DA? Hell if I know. He's presided over an average of 1 case every two months. And that's with well over 200 cases plending. A good friened of my sis in laws tried to file on his former renters for stolen property last year. The local sheriff refused to do anything, so the guy goes back to confront the renters. This time they assaulted him. He went back to the shefiff's office and once again tried to file charges (with knots on his head as proof) and was again turned down. Just very small examples of a much larger problem...
