The way a picture of a bunch of kids being dumb has blown up into something of epic proportions is mind-boggling. As if there's nothing better in the world to be upset about than this . . . it's a waste of energy, time and (in the case of the lawsuit) money. People are so quick to judge and point fingers. Sixteen-year-olds are immature and often make stupid decisions . . . I have pictures at home from when I was that age of me & my friends wearing bikinis and doing stupid things in the house at 2am--it was nothing bad, just entertaining--but if those photos were treated the same way Miley's have been, they'd seem scandalous and sleazy. And sure, people in the public eye do need to be more careful, but with the paparazzi becoming more & more invasive, it seems like celebrities can't do anything without it being recorded and belched back out for public consumption with some sort of unfortunate spin on it. I'm not saying I love Miley, but seriously, give most sixteen-year-olds overnight fame and fortune and see what happens. This whole thing is insane. Why does the simple fact that someone finds something offensive automatically put the burden on the "offender?" This is seriously the most lucid & sane thing I’ve heard anyone say in a long time.

I am on the fence about this. To me it is not outright offensive, but it is retarded. I'm kinda being hard on her as she has a nasty habit of getting caught up in this kind of scandal. There is about one every few weeks. Her apology was late, which was the problem... the first apology just pissed people off, before she did it properly.

Still, she owes the Asian community some reparations. how about she go to this guy's house with a mule and give him 40 acres of land...lol (i now, wrong ethnicity, but it'll still work) see, that’s what happenes when you have the country music nation behind you. for osme reason those hilbillies (or their offspring) can’t do anything wrong.
