Just look at the media's top stories the last few years: Paris Hilton going to jail, Michael Jackson molestation (sp?), Mel Gibson drunk driving, Lindsay Lohan in rehab, Nicole Richie pregnant...etc
Let's face it, all of those stories were about famous people commiting crimes ( not pregnancy though ) that occur everyday in our society. We all know that people drink and drive, people get pregnant, sickos molest children, and people go to jail for violating probation.
Ask yourself this question, how many times you do hear about violent crimes where you live that get national attention recently ?
The only one I can think of is the Kathryn Johnson incident. To me, a change in police policy to prevent this from happening is more important to me because it can directly affect me and not Michael Vick's ALLEGED dog fighting involvement. He was indicted because of SUSPECTED INVOLVEMENT..etc, not because he was black.
To whomever it was that said that, get a life and start accepting responsiblity for you actions, that is what a adult should do.
