TMZ has learned that "24" star Kiefer Sutherland was busted on suspicion of DUI in West Hollywood last night.
Police sources tell TMZ 40-year-old Sutherland was pulled over around 1:35 AM PST on the corner of La Cienega and Beverly. Sutherland was at the FOX Fall Eco-Casino party at Area nightclub earlier that evening.
Sutherland, who was stopped after making an illegal U-turn, was arrested for misdemeanor DUI and transported to the Hollywood Police station. He was booked at 4:09 AM and released at 5:42 AM on $25,000 bail.
We're told Sutherland was "cooperative and mellow" while he was in custody.

Why was his bail so much for a DUI?
I just read somewhere that Michelle Rodriguez was let out on $500 bail after being arrested in Hawaii on suspicion of DUI! That is a huge difference!!!!!!!!!

I think Kiefer has been in trouble with the law before.
He definitely has a drinking problem.

I am baffled by the mentality of these actors, actresses and celebs that are often being busted for DUI, as well as drug addiction and abuse.
They know they are public figures and so the public would always hold them at a higher stand. This should be the reason why they must always strive to behave themselves.
But instead what we read about them all the time is how irresponsible and naughty they are.
They have money and can afford to hire a chauffeur or a driver or a limo to drive them to and back from the bars where they go to drink.
There is no reason why they should be DUI.
For this reason, the law should treat them more harshly than the average citizen to set an example.
DUI can be dangerous because it can destroy innocent lives.
Hollywood should stop giving acting roles to actors, actresses and celebs who continuously drive while intoxicated or abuse drugs and people should start boycotting their movies and TV shows and stop fawning over them to send strong messages to these brainless twits that their irresponsible behaviors are dangerous and unacceptable.
It is bad enough how they make millions of dollars (that they don’t deserve), acting in movies and TV shows that glorify violence, murder, sexual depravity, war, racism, homosexuality, bestiality, necrophilia, sado-masochism and every type of immorality and decadence that pollute and destroy the sanity of the society. To be driving under influence is like adding salt to the injury and rubbing our noses to it and this should stop.
