Celebrity justice is not always about what the rich and famous can get away with. The juicy side of celebrity justices is the ability to complain about the O.J. verdict, Russel Crowe’s hotel settlement, or Zsa Zsa slapping a cop. What, though, about the justice for celebrities? With all the fame and fortune they have, celebrities become a target.

For celebrities, restraining orders become as common as red carpets. Everyone, it seems, wants a sliver of that spotlight. David Letterman had a woman repeatedly breaking into his home and John Lennon was gunned down by a stalker to whom he had just given an autograph. Today, celebrities just cannot be too careful about stalkers and taking legal action against them.

Pamela Anderson recently had to take such action. A stalker approached her family several times. One time, he even began talking to her young son. When approached and asked to move on, he asked her to star in a movie he wrote. It is that kind of obsession and pushy behavior that leads a celebrity stalker to continue escalating. Anderson was able to secure a quick restraining order against the man. Celebrity justice like that isn’t shows us that they aren’t always getting away with things; sometimes celebrities need their own justice.

Granted, celebrity justice does move a little more swiftly than for the rest of us. That, though, is just a product of their means. Having the means, though, is necessary when you are a constant target of lawsuits, stalkers, and petty suits in general. Isn’t it “the rest of us” that create their means in the first place? Complaining about celebrity justice in general isn’t a viable complaint. Complain about special treatment, but don’t spite those we raise up for protecting themselves and their families just as we would.
