Let's quit making excuses for Lindsay Lohan, that's her problem. The girl should of done time, like everyone who breaks the law. Has America gone mad, or dumb found it. Your missing the point, she has blattenly, broken the law. Foxy Brown, Eve and Lil Kim were not spared the glory this white girl has. What's up with that? Don't forget about the stunt Miss Paris Hilton got away with. Are we saying it's okay, for them to break the law and not for blacks or any other minority.

I think it's pretty unfair to judge Tracy on his past. If he's cleaned up, he's cleaned up--simple as that. And generally, people who have been in whatever situation (as he has w/ drinkin') give the best advice for gettin' out of it. So, stop hatin' folks.
And yah, if Vick can get crack'd down for dogfighting, and they're just dogs, no way that Lohan & Hilton should get off for drunk drivin'--which endangers human beings. But, that's just how I see it.

RECOVERING ADDICTS ARE THE BEST PEOPLE TO SHARE THEIR
PAIN AND THE STEPS NECESSARY TO GET IT TOGETHER. THE MEDIA REPORTING DO NOT HAVE A CLUE. NO ONE KNOWS WHEN ONE WILL HIT THEIR BOTTOM. MANY ADDICTS NEVER HIT BOTTOM EVEN WHEN THEY END UP IN JAIL OR DEAD. AN ADDICTION KNOWS NO COLOR, PROFESSION OR ZIP CODE.

Personally I am sick to death of hearing Lindsey Lohan's name. If people stopped talking about her I bet she would sit her lil ass down and do what she need to do. Her and all them other lil white actors love the publicity.

Humor has nothing to with how much alcohol you consume, but rather how sensitive you are to the world. The same is true about the arts. Drugs and alcohol are the enemy of what brings joy and laughter. Confronting rage and experiencing triumph, these are the cathartic elements to comedy. Let's hope that Tracy has found himself so we may laugh with him and not at him.

I wish him the best of luck if he is sincere and I hope he can get his wife and family back instead of heading for divorce court.
