You're missing the point. We all understand that people are getting killed everyday in Iraq. We all think it's great when celebrities step up and make a trip to Iraq in order to entertain and bring some amount of joy to our troops. In fact, I think it's great that KR wants to do it. But, he shouldn't be doing it as punishment for a crime. Punishment is supposed to be something you don't want to do.
He should have to pick up garbage or whatever and then, when he's done with that, he can go visit the troops on his own time. It is a reward to visit the troops and see the smiles on their faces as you entertain them. If that was the case and I had any sort of celebrity, I'd walk into Waffle House, punch someone in the nuts and hope they fly me over there so I can feel good about what I'm doing.
