Lindsay Lohan is going back to jail.

Judge Elden Fox made his ruling before hearing any argument from Lohan's lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, in Los Angeles Superior Court Friday morning.

The actress was handcuffed and taken into custody from court. She will likely be incarcerated until October 22, TMZ.com reports.

Lohan faced a judge Friday morning after violating her probation by failing a drug test, which she admitted to on Twitter.

Earlier this year, she spent 14 days in jail and less than a month in rehab for violating her probation related to a 2007 DUI arrest. She was sentenced to 90 days of each at the time.

Friday morning, Lindsay's father Michael told The Hollywood Reporter that Lohan should be sent to rehab instead of jail.

3. Lohan has been the media's favorite whipping girl for years now.
Unlike Paris Hilton, she's not on film saying n*gger, and her self destructive course is hurting only, well, herself.

The media loves to hate her though.

It's sick.

5. She reportedly almost hit a stroller (with child inside) a few weeks ago
She can deny her problems all she wants until she starts piling up the collateral damage.

Besides which, the celebrity double standard is as sickening as the media double standard the Republicans enjoy. If an average person committed the same offenses as Lohan, how many of them would be back out on the street free to use more drugs as quickly as she was? Not many, if any.

6. Rehab? More like spa-hab!
Judges should be forced to use recidivism rates in deciding whether to allow a probationer to remain free. Clearly, these "Club Med(ication)" joke institutions are a worthless waste.
