Maybe they should just be put down.

Anyone who follows the celebrity mags as I do (sure, sure - pretend you don't browse them in the grocery line) knows that Tatum O'Neal has been a drugged out disaster-area for years. And Ryan O'Neal has had his share of ink for his own personal problems, probably the least of which includes fighting like a 4-year-old with Farrah Fawcett and just generally being an ass.

Well, you can now add son Redmond to the list of losers in that clan. Seems Ryan and Redmond have been arrested for meth possession. I guess growing up seeing your father and sister embarrass themselves and end up complete washouts due to drug use wasn't enough to convince Redmond that he should, perhaps, stay away from substances.

Has no one but me seen that show "Intervention" on A&E? Seriously, if you watched that show, and you saw what the subjects of that show looked like when they're in throes of addiction, you'd actually consider turning Amish just to avoid any brush with substance abuse, much less ever start on that path yourself. I really think maybe the O'Neals should just all be put down. Let the gene pool be drained, scrubbed with bleach and then John McEnroe can refill it with clean DNA. Who would've ever guessed McEnroe would end up being the responsible, reasonable adult in that family?

Wowee...see what I miss when I spend my time in the checkout line saying, "No, you can't have a ring pop" and "Put down the Butterfinger" and "Please stop tickling your brother until he pees." Yep. Magazines would be MUCH saner.

Seriously, so true! I haven't seen Intervention, but I saw last season's Celebrity Rehab with Jeff Conway (Taxi, Grease) on it and he was pathetic! In fact all of them were, frankly.
