Re: Playwright Lisa Matsumoto dies...
Scrivener,
I have problems. Don't we all.
I did notice that while you talked about Matsumoto, you did not once mention either of the 2 people sent to the hospital. That's who I'm concerned for. And the many others who will die over the next few months because our society refuses to treat drunk drivers, especially celebrity ones, with the castigation they deserve.
Please note that my rant on drunks was against the idea of drunks driving and I included every celebrity drunk I could remember of all races and genders. My rant was not, as the admin accused, to "pile on" to Matsumoto. It was to discuss a serious matter affecting Hawaii, a matter that was triggered by Matsumoto but not simply about Matsumoto. You feel sorry for me and I feel sorry for Matsumoto. But I am angry about Waihee and Kahoano and Matsumoto and the others for being so selfishly dangerous.
My problem is not with Matsumoto the woman, it is with what she CHOSE to do and with what so many choose to do. I don't know if Hawaii is worse than other cities of similar size but it sure seems like we've had more than our fare share of celebrity drunk drivers lately.
That's my point and the only concern I have with the late author.
