![Whitney Houston -- Prescription Drugs Found ... Possible Drowning [Exclusive Photo Update]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/12/0211-hero-whitney2-248x127.jpg)
The people at Nutrisystem just got rid of a quick 230 pounds -- as in, they just fired Lawrence Taylor due to the "severity" of the allegations he's facing in his statutory rape case. 
TMZ spoke to a rep at the weight loss company, who told us, "We are shocked and saddened by these very serious allegations against Lawrence Taylor."
The rep added, "Based on the severity of these allegations, Nutrisystem has made the decision to sever our relationship with Mr. Taylor effective immediately."
And Nutrisystem really does work fast -- they've already replaced Taylor's image on their website with slimmed down San Diego Padres star Matt Stairs.

And maybe if all those perverts out there wouldn't frequent underage prostitutes there wouldn't be a market for them anymore and underage girls wouldn't be able to be exploited. Once again, defend the criminal and criminalize the victim.

so Big Ben can rape an unsuspecting college student in a bathroom and nothing comes of it, but L.T pays for sex from a prostitute (who by the way DID accept the money so clearly she rendered her services) and now his life is over. Should he not have been there and been at home with his wife... ofcourse... but that's not the issue. The issue is whether or not a rape occured and I'm not so convinced... (yea I know this is kind of a s***my post of my behalf but the truth is the truth)

21. African Americans. The most vulnerable self-destructive race for two hundred years with no signs of it EVER getting any better. There answer has been blame white America instead of tackling the real issues:
Having children w/o finances or support and abandonment creating
poverty, crime and murder, mental health issues including
sustance issues. 70% of black women have children out of wedlock.

Let's face it, the guy screwed up. Doesn't matter if actually knew (this is debatable) she was 16 or not. WHY don't he just man up and take responsibility for his actions instead of using excuses to try and get out of the charges, and repair his public image like so many other celebs???!!!!
People make decisions but when they get caught, there is always some excuse, or they enter rehab to try and escape the law. And people wonder why this world is so screwed up anymore? Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out. People play (openly or in what they think is secretive at the time), yet when it's exposed, they don't want to pay. Grow up and take some responsibility for your actions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
