Judge Denies Kid Rock’s U.S.O. Community Service Request
Oh boo hoo! Remember last year when Kid Rock got in a fight at the Waffle House in Atlanta? Part of his punishment was to serve 80 hours of community service. He wants to serve those hours by performing for U.S. troops in the Middle East over the holidays, but the judge says no way. And Kid Rock is mad. He said:
“I really take it as a slap in the face, and really have trouble thinking of a better way to ‘serve the community.’ Apparently [the judge] thinks it’s more important that I do something else rather than sing, shake hands, take pictures and spend time with the men and women who put themselves in harm’s way to protect the very freedom he and all of us live by.”
Are you kidding me? He can’t think of any better community service than… doing what he already does for a living? The judge concurs.
Georgia State Court Judge Alvin T. Wong, who denied the request Sept. 30, writes that Rock, has performed for the troops before and “giving him credit for something he would otherwise love to do in front of a camera completely defeats the punitive purpose of performing community service.”
Dude should be careful. If he doesn’t pick something appropriate, it sounds like the judge is going to assign him something, and given the tone of his statement it doesn’t look like it would be anything very fun.
