Lindsay Lohan, who has constantly been in and out of jail for the past few years, recently failed a drug test. Her return to jail has been all over the news. However, many people are upset that her actions are making news in all newspapers and television shows and a group of Marines who died this week have not gotten any news coverage. A bold message regarding this issue has been circulating Facebook all week:
"Linday Lohan, 24, is all over the news because she's a celebrity drug addict. While Justin Allen 23, Brett Linley 29, Matthew Weikert 29, Justus Bartett 27, Dave Santos 21, Chase Stanley 21, Jesse Reed 26, Matthew Johnson 21, Zachary Fisher 24, Brandon King 23, Christopher Goeke 23, and Sheldon Tate 27 are all Marines that gave their lives this week, no media mention. Honor THEM by reposting!"
I do not believe that Lindsay's irresponsibility is worth making headline news. Her actions have not benefitted anyone, whereas the Marines' bravery and courage have. Lindsay's situation will not make any person sit down and think how fortunate they are. But if the Marines were making headline news, people would rethink how lucky they are to have 'strangers' risking their lives to save the country.
