Ugh I've been held hostage to his actions via social media, at this point I wish he'd just go away.
Remember back in the day when people would flip their @%&# over rock stars trashing hotel rooms? Those seem like such innocent times now...

1. In America DUI is a felony, so if he gets a conviction then he's stuck here in Canada, the USA won't allow him across the border!
2. How the hell can an under-20 year old have an expired-for-greater-than-6-months drivers license??
Because Money
You start driving at 16. Your license can be suspended for a year the day you get it, if you play your cards right.
Also, WHO THE @%&# CARES?!
Miley + Justin

They're multiplying!
Have you ever seen them together? Just think about it :o
White House now has to respond to the 100k+ petition saying "get him outta the USA, he's worse than Miley!" or something similar.
And check out the comments, as various iconic figures play "hot potato" with the troubled young Canuck.

I know right, it's all over the news covering real issues like NSA Spying, Revolt in Ukraine, the Justice Department wanting to fine the Bank of America for mortgage fraud...
Bread and Circuses...
The news isn't about journalism anymore. It hasn't been in a while. It's all about ratings, so they went with newstertainment. Some local fluff pieces and anything that will get a rise out of people.
I saw a good article a while back that points the rise of Editorializing as the sole form of News back to the success of 60 Minutes in the 80s, I guess before that news programs were considered a ratings loss by tv networks / radio stations and considered a "necessary evil".
Then again today we have so many more sources to get information from, the tricky bit is not only trying to just get the facts, but also trusting the source.

I don't care much about the "news"* article I linked to, I found amusing (and thus the link being shared) the comments thread, nobody is taking this seriously (in a similar way to treatment of Rob Ford) in that it's all about making jokes instead of seeing a messed up [young] adult individual who is gonna self-destruct fatally one day soon if things don't change.
But the comments were surprisingly funny for this article (http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/white-house-address-petition-deport-justin-bieber/story?id=22284038#comment-1222823722). And I have a day off tomorrow so it's like a Friday Funny to me. Sorry for the distraction #BackToStarboundAllOfYou
* "news" in quotes for a reason.
You should see some of the comments on tumblr and twitter hoo boy lol

So The Roast Of Someone People Don't Really Care About happened.
Jeffrey Ross: "The name Bieber has become so offensive, the Washington Redskins think you should change it".
The Canuck embarrassment was serious and contrite. Oops? http://globalnews.ca/news/1884513/justin-bieber-apologizes-for-past-behaviour-at-comedy-central-roast/
I think we should air drop him into ISIL territory
They'd give up in a week
And not a full seven days, they'd give up by Friday afternoon.
LOL

beard, who knows?)
