Weird article from the Guardian in the UK:
Quote:
Lindsay Lohan's prison sentence is an outrage

Quote:
Is this the global reputation you want, Los Angeles? Is this, in all sooth, the way in which you wish the world to perceive your city – as a place where rich white girls go to jail?
Following this week's miscarriage of Lindsay Lohan-related justice, one can only assume the answer to be in the affirmative. As things stand, LA remains on high alert after another travesty of a judgment on a monied Caucasian who had repeatedly violated the terms of her DUI sentence. If this simmering tension spills over into mindless violence and pan-district rioting, then the blood will be on the legal system's hands. How many more, LA?
Even now, campaigners who marched with "JUSTICE FOR PARIS HILTON" placards are probably contemplating the horror of having to do it all again, and wondering for how long the entertainer liberation movement can maintain its tradition of peaceful resistance, or whether the time has come to move to armed struggle.
