I could understand if she, as a judge giving her opinion, said that perhaps Ms Lohan should spend a few days in the county jail (which by the way, here in Los Angeles is like going to jail in a third world country), but I am scared to live in an America where the people who put people in prison feel so passionately about putting people in prison who don't deserve prison at all....

I am morally opposed to prison (not just because it is somewhere I risk going) because it is unjust to punish murders and rapists in the same way as petty thieves and drug addicts... only in America folks, where at times 1 out of every 100 people is incarcerated in a municipal, county, state or federal correctional facility (minors and adults included together)

I agree, they should legalize substances, too
