 Winona Ryder Speaks Out About Her Arrest | Winona Ryder

The oxycontin made her do it.

There’s no need to do that to people who just want to bike in the nuuuude.

The Vick story is the big news today I guess.  Dog-fighting, which is horrifying thing don’t get me wrong, I have to consider that dogs are being killed everyday. We have a dog surplus now I guess. The thought that Vick could be suspended merely on the basis of allegations doesn’t thrill me, but let’s not mince hairs–it’s part of Vick’s culture, and that’s just the way it is.

I don’t write about politics very much here, but indulge me for a second. The trial of Michael Vick is going to cost millions–it will surely generate millions for big corporations that will make money from eyes on television, but it is going to cost somebody millions–the American taxpayer. Why they should pay for such a trial, which will indubitably be conducted by the a nepotistic retard of a prosecutor, is beyond me. One person should pay for his crime, no other should pay for it.

It is Vick who has and will pay. The public has rendered the verdict. It will probably rob him of his livelihood for a year at minimum, it will haunt his life thereafter. Public knowledge of criminal behavior is the most virtuous form of discipline imaginable for those who are in the public eye.

This, naturally, leads one to an important conclusion. If everyone had a public life, we would need about 80 percent less jails.

Barry Bliss is legendary over at Stop Me.

The Michael Vick story is the big news.
