Should celebs get special treatment from the law?

Is it only right that given the extra pressures they find themselves under, stars should be shown a little leniency in times of trouble? Or do you think celebrities should be made an example of - they are after all, role models for many people?

    Why should they??
    I worked for 50 years after leaving school;paid all of my dues and demands, and get the bare minimum back from the goverment of the day.This applies to millions across the country who are too frightened to go out or into certain areas, for fear of their life, because of the lack of protection from the authorities.Celebs earn MORE than enough each week to pay for their own protection(probably tax deductable anyway!!)
