Yes, You Can Buy Justice in America . . . If You’re a Rich Actress
By Debbie Schlussel
While this isn’t nearly as disgusting as NFL gazillionaire Donte Stallworth doing only 30 days in prison after killing a man, it’s nauseating enough.
Recently, movie star/actress Jessica Alba vandalized a United Way billboard in Oklahoma City, posting flyers about saving the great white sharks. ‘Cuz as we all know, Oklahoma is surrounded by miles of ocean coastline where sharks are endangered by evil humans taking a swim (and who deserve their limbs to be bitten off for doing so). When I think great white sharks and ocean, I think Oklahoma City. Don’t you?
Jessica Alba: Yes, You Can . . . Get Away w/ Vandalism if You’re Rich
Alba took photos of herself smiling and proudly posing in front of her vandalism, which she posted online. Now, if that were you or me, we’d be prosecuted. And we wouldn’t be offered a deal because the prosecutors had all the evidence they needed what with the pics we posted proudly posing with our “work.”
But, if you’re rich enough in America, you can buy the victim off and get them to not press charges or argue for leniency. The United Way declined to press charges . . . after Alba donated a sizable sum to the group.
For the record, this is another one of those instances where I wish “a pox on both their houses.” United Way donates millions of dollars to Muslim-dominated agencies including Dearbornistan’s ACCESS–the Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services, which helps Muslim illegal aliens enter and stay in America, funded commercial driving lessons for Al-Qaeda terrorists, and has helped thousands of Muslim pregnant aliens have their kids here in America, courtesy of Medicaid, because ACCESS gave them phony social security numbers. When you give to United Way, that’s where some of your money goes.
And that’s aside from the pressure tactics United Way uses at most big employers’ offices across America.
Neither Alba nor United way will say how much she gave. But it’s just more evidence that, yes, you can buy justice in America.
No wonder Alba supported the “Yes, You Can” candidate.
One other thing: A brief refresher on Alba–during the height of the Iraq invasion, Alba whined that her uncle joined the U.S. Army to get a free trip to Italy and got shipped to Iraq instead. Yup, the U.S. military . . . your cruise package to the Mediterranean. And I thought they were around to protect American interests as our fighting force. Who knew?
Nice house. No one’s home. But the bank account is bulging.
With money, fame and connections one can buy one’s way out of trouble. There’s always been a double standard in justice and as long as human nature is the way it is – its going to be with us forever.
