ABSOLUTELY!!!! Isn't it madness that a serial degenerate criminal gets 2nd chance after 2nd chance, but Lewis Hamilton does a squealy (or some reports have it as a donut), and loses his car and gets a huge fine. If it was a donut, then Hamilton deserved what he got. But what kind of society do we have where it is worse to do a burnout than to steal a car? I'd hazard a guess that half the population have paid more in speeding fines than this arsehole ever (actually) paid in fines. It is pure and simple madness what our legal system has become. It makes criminals out of people going about their everyday business, and gives 2nd chances to the real criminals. Williams (and anyone who steals a car or other mid to high value item) should have been given a gaol sentence for his first car theft, should have been given a longer gaol sentence for his 2nd, and if he hadn't learnt by his third he should have been hanged as it was clear he was always going to be a pestilence to society. I guess God/Karma/Fate (or whatever else you want to call it), sometimes gets it right, and used the opportunity to give 2 career criminals the penalty they deserved. The only shame is that the women were probably innocent, and the baby definitely was. >> >> > > > -- What is the difference between a duck?
