And in this, at least, the world has not changed much. There has always been a relative minority of wealthy kids who believed they deserved the world handed to them on a silver platter, and that any trouble they had could be fixed with money.
Being the vicious, vindictive bastard I am, I've always found it most amusing when those types finally get what's coming to them, especially when it involves a nice long stretch in a prison filled with the very kinds of people they stepped on all their lives. Sorry, but that's the way I am.

True. That's an evil I didn't rail against. The abuse of power and hedonistic self-indulgence is appalling.
But those people wouldn't sully themselves by being caught up in the kind of scene that took place in Derby. These people haven't been spurned by society. Rather they are frequently idolised. Look at Amy Whitehoouse, Britanny Spiers, Paris Hilton. Prince Harry (a man who cannot be short of a bob or two, but a tenderfoot as a pilot) takes a £35m helicopter belonging to the RAF on a jaunt to some other Hooray-Henry's stag party. Couldn't he have borrowed Daddy's Aston Martin? Think of the CO2 emissions saved!
Those princesses of privilege fornicate, vomit, expose themselves for fame and fortune, and are feted for it, while the real prince behaves with such utter arrogance, it's exasperating!

But society's outcasts are never celebrated, they are looked down on by everyone who is not like them and are treated with universal contempt.
