GLASSJAW Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Monroe started driving the tiny toy car after she lost the right to drive an adult-sized vehicle. While heading home from a Waka Flocka concert, she refused to take a breathalyzer test — a move that automatically suspended her license. they should revoke her ability to spend money, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabreFan1 Posted September 4, 2015 Author Share Posted September 4, 2015 I don't get all the static. How is this thumbing a nose or anything except kinda funny. It seems everyone gets outraged when a famous person gets a DUI, but it's not as offensive when a regular person does it and then flaunts the law afterwards. We live in a hypocritical society.

BradyBoone Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Sorry. Meant to comment in my last post too. I agree with Butters. Not sure if she's making fun of herself or what. Not sure what the big deal is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She refused to be apologetic and acknowledge that she made a mistake with DUI. DUI can kill not only herself but innocent people. It is thumbing a nose at not just the law but other people's right to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course driving drunk can kill and I'm glad she didn't hurt anyone. I think people are overreacting though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted this because I was curious to see how people would react to a regular non-famous person in the news. Just as I suspected nobody is spouting off and preaching their outrage because she isn't famous. People here on this board and obviously in Texas think it's a lesser crime not worth a similar discussion. It's my CDC social experiment and it went over exactly as I thought it would.

If a celebrity did this it would still be funny. This girl kind of seems like a total asshat but that doesn't mean this whole thing isn't hilarious.

Mr. Ambien Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 She seems like the type that would get a DWI on the barbie car or a segway. I'm not too worried, nature sometimes takes care of things like this itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Feel free to drive that even when you get the chance to have your license back. You're just making a spectacle of yourself for something you did that was wrong and I have no sympathy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
