What Are We to Think?


Angelina Jolie recently exited a limo with her husband Brad Pitt … and she had white powder all over her face … see more pictures and some cutsie journalism here: UK Telegraph Story. There is an obvious conclusion for all to jump to … even though the Telegraph won’t take us there.

I have in the past railed against the U.S. (particularly, the Hollywood) drug culture that is self-absorbed and seemingly without boundaries … see: Makes the World Go Around,  Hollywood Navel GazingGlitz, and The Wages of Sin. If this white powder was, as I suspect, cocaine, how many Mexicans died in cartel violence to feed this addiction? How many drug mules are in prison because they went for these fast bucks? How many East L.A. gangs thrive on such glitterati self indulgences? Do these A-list people every think of the havoc that they are causing as a result of their few moments of euphoria?

Yet most of these morons have no compunctions about lecturing the rest of us about how to live our lives …

As an experienced watcher of "Cops" I can attest that druggies don't rub it on their cheek; it usually appears around the nose. Others have called it a makeup error, but you will believe what you want to.
