Whatchu Talkin' Bout, Woman? Coleman Cited in Utah

Ex-child star Gary Coleman had a little tiff with a woman in a Utah parking lot -- and was cited by cops for disorderly conduct after a couple of witnesses actually saw him smacking his steering wheel. Diff'rent strokes, indeed.

Coleman -- now 39 -- and an unidentified woman were in his car in a Provo parking lot when the erstwhile Arnold got "very excited and loud," Capt. Cliff Argyle tells the AP. "At one point he exited his vehicle, waving his arms, yelling and screaming." Coleman's car was blocking other cars trying to exit the lot.

Gary/Arnold was reportedly "cooperative" with cops. The disorderly conduct citation is a misdemeanor punishable by up to three months in the slammer and a $750 fine.

16. I'm a bit surprised that he got arrested for hitting his steering wheel and yelling. There must be more to this because that just doesn't make sense. If he hit the woman - yes, makes sense, but his steering wheel????

19. I have to say, I've seen some deragatory and immature comments on this site, but come on Sebastian. Was that necessary? Please rethink what you post before putting it out there.

20. ONLY IN HAPPY VALLEY CAN SMACKING A STEERING WHEEL AND YELLING BE CONSIDERED A CRIME. UNLESS THE CHARGE WAS SOLELY FOR BLOCKING THE EXIT, WHICH IS MENTIONED. GARY DOES SEEM TO GET HIMSELF NOTICED, THOUGH, DOESN'T HE? AT LEAST HE'S NOT DEAD OR HEADED FOR PRISON LIKE HIS OTHER TELEVISION SIBLINGS.

26. Is this what our country is coming to? Punishing someone for smacking their own property and making a fuss? What a nation of wimps we are that we have allowed this. Everyone is so afraid and offended by everything. Hey, Gary, I feel for you. Fight this - don't let them take away your freedom of expression. You didn't hurt anyone or do any harm. The person that callled the police needs to stay home if they are spooked that easily.

29. On a more meaningful note, there needs to be a new law enacted that if you look stupid in a western hat, you should be locked away for the good of others.

We can call it the Imus/Coleman law.

Geez.....
