spirited reaction, what?? what the f*** did I do is spirited?? Wow. and I know the f word is used a lot....but spirited?? But what other word would describe his language. He's 19. Just asking.patricia92243
(12,595 posts)night in jail. He looked rebellious in the pictures of him before the judge, and he still is. And of course the "yes" men that surround him will all agree that he is an innocent victim - thus supporting the continued rebellion.
Too sad for him. Looks like life will have to kick him in the teeth before he learns anything - if even then.

(3,871 posts)really short hair and his girlfriend dumped him. Poor Biebs, he's such a victim. Was his dad there too? Nice parenting...LOL..

(16,184 posts)He's getting drunk behind the wheel of an overpowered richmobile and assuming his wealth and status will keep him from getting in trouble.
That's pretty much the ultra rich and establishment to a tee.

A HERETIC I AM
(24,367 posts)Being broke by the time he's 40.
His fame and relevance will pass, and sooner than you can blink an eye he'll have no income. He had better be getting some good financial advice, or he is going to have to turn to being an evangelical like MC Hammer did.

(28,552 posts)..... I've seen this movie and it never ends well. The guy got too much too soon and he does not have the maturity or wisdom to see the slippery slope he is on.
Too bad.
A HERETIC I AM
(24,367 posts)The most boring investment in the world. Put a few million in them and in 30 years he'll get his few million back.
sendero
(28,552 posts)... like many pro athletes, he is awash is cash and cannot imagine it being any other way. Or like most big lottery winners - most wind up bankrupt in a few years because they cannot distinguish $50,000,000 from $infinite.
Yes, maybe this kid has a good financial planner who will convince him that the money will not roll in forever, but I really doubt it.
But yes, 30 YR TREAS GOOD!

(14,918 posts)Bieber obviously didn't learn anything from the recent car crash death of the "Fast and Furious" actor. This episode could easily have ended in the same kind of tragedy.

(41,960 posts)HELLS no. That child needs some boundaries enforced. I was particularly delighted with Stephen King's comment, which went something like: "For young celebrities life is a buffet of free food. But don't be surprised when you end up being the last course."

(15,480 posts)I didn't really have a nanny, of course, but I read that line in a British adventure novel re a character making a reckless decision sure to have disastrous consequences. In other words, this will not end well.

Exactly the same thing.

(22,541 posts)an accident. You're comparing this punk kid actually ENDANGERING LIVES WHILE DRUNK DRAG RACING to a man who died in an accident.
You might want to check out Walker's life. He was a nice person.

It is an entitled rich, well connected now, kid.
And chances are he will really NOT face the music.
