Of course there's no double standard . . .

Alright, I don't know if you guys have heard about the Donte Stallworth story but let me just sum it up for you. He got drunk, got behind the wheel, and killed someone. Yes, drunken vehicular manslaughter. Now that's serious stuff, he surely must've gotten a pretty hefty prison sentence right? Yeah right. He got 30 days. 30 DAYS? Are you joking. If one of us would've done that, it would've been 30 years, not 30 days. He's a high profile guy so of course, he got special treatment. What pissed me off even more is that on ESPN they were saying how this was a fair punishment. WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM? It's not a fair punishment, are you joking? A man is dead because he was too irresponsible to call a cab to take him home, or whatever the case was. He got behind the wheel while drunk. That's not smart. It's utterly stupid and 30 days is not a punishment for that. I understand that he'll have to live with that but there's a man that's dead and his family will never see him again. I'm sick of these athletes getting off so damn easy.
