Comment on Why do celebs commit crimes and such like Tony Romo and his DWI? He had a 180 million dollar deal. Why not hire a driver or stay at home and buy ridiculous shit?

  This is the dumbest shit I have heard, no offense.

  ^ that’s you before you posted your insulting, dumb AF take.

  OP is saying that when you have enough money and fame, the idea of consequences starts going away. That means that some people could go get drunk and not believe they may face the same consequences because they never have. You thinking you could pay for blowies from a bunch of pornstars while smoking a tobacco and weed cuban cigar (?) is just another example of something a person that can do whatever they want might do. The endless possibilities in Romo’s case is that he’s rich and can drive where and how he wants, but he got caught. There’s a sense of feeling invincible at a point of wealth and fame. Also, while this is in no way a defense for his actions or anyone else that drunk drives, but alcohol is well known for altering a person’s inhibitions, making it more likely for them to take the risk. It is extremely easy in today’s world to order ride share or find a ride, so it’s inexcusable especially when you’re wealthy, but my reasons above are some of why it happens.

    Ok that’s all I wanted. I guess if I said explain yourself it would sound like we were in the army or someshit. So I do appologize.
