Eh... you wanna be famous, that's what you gotta expect.
not really
I'm not so sure... If you go to a bar for a drink and some drunk fuck sucker-punches you for no reason at all, would it be proper for me to say "It's the bar.. that's what you gotta expect."? I think any normal person would expect respect. i.e. leave me alone, and I will do the same to you. There is fine line between simply taking pictures and pure intrusion of ones personal space. If someone was hiding on my property and jumped out at me with a camera, he or she might be wearing a size 12 poop-shoot after I got done with them. Bottom line: I think Britney got fed up and reacted. I think many would of done the same.
