Innocent until proven guilty is an important legal concept, but I am a big fan of the court of popular opinion.

I think the public is getting awfully tired of the boorish manner in which many public figures conduct their lives, and the fact that they often see themselves as above the law. Michael Vick may be not guilty in a courtroom, but when I hear him say he had no knowledge of it even though it occurred on his property, I do have to shake my head in disgust. That's as bad as Lindsey Lohan walking into a police station with cocaine in her pocket and telling the cops it's not hers!

Please spare us these sob stories and let celebrities take responsibility for their own lives.
