On the way to work this morning I was listening to some mostly useless celebrity gossip and I got to thinking. What if the American and Western culture were not so forgiving of our celebrities and other famous people? Charlie Sheen, Mel Gibson, and others who have done stupid things and are sometimes celebrated for it, and almost always forgiven for it. What if famous people like that were blacklisted? What if they were unable to turn their stupidity into further fame and fortune? What would the entertainment and political climate look like if our culture were not so forgiving?
