And once again, there is absolutely no law enforcement involved in this.

I'm tired of arguing about this. I just can't believe that so many people are completely unwilling to show her any sort of compassion. I find that quite sadening. Especially since you were just specifically saying that people have too angellic a view of Ayu at all times in the Startin' PV discussion thread, this is the same thing but in a different situation. I doubt Ayu was a perfect little angel durring her teen years as she has hinted at on several occasions.

Kago is a human being with flaws just like everyone else. I'm not saying she should go unpunished, but really this should not be being dealt with as seriously as it is, not by a long shot. I almost wish she were being punished by the police as that punishement would actually be less severe. She is not only being punished, she is being shamed.(they have removed all merchandise and images of her at the H!P store locations and will be cutting her out of the upcoming Hello Mornings either completley or with a mosaic on her face.) What she needs now more than anything is peoples support, not for people to turn their back on her and I just find it odd that fans of hers have to be convinced of that. She obviously has some problems that need to be worked through or she wouldn't be smoking in the first place.

And we could be here all night talking about what is wrong with the idol business, but I'm not going to. If people don't see anything wrong with it then

edited to add: If I'm sounding too emphatic or overbearing about this subject, I don't mean to be, so I'm sorry for that. This issue just unexpectedly got under my skin for some reason.
