I agree. And BTW this is essentially what what Ann Coulter is saying.
You nailed it
This is about what Rush Limbaugh calls “Get even withemism”
“Oh see is rich, she is famous, she got stuff I don’t got. YEAH! She is being punished and made to suffer YEAH!!!”
Really pathetic. Hilton is punished and their pathetic lives are still pathetic but I guess they can feel good for a couple of seconds because Paris Hilton got taken down a peg or two.
I doubt it.
Just look what the little whiner has done for your Saturday afternoon. Heck, after reading your pathetic defense for the little babe, I've less sympathy for the whiner than I had when loaded the thread.
Keep it up. You'll have her lynched in no time. :-)
I actually agree that her sentence is a tad long. A few days behind bars should do it. Having said that, I believe her, and the women in Hollywood like her, are on a course of self destruction. The judge just may be trying to save her life. Then again, in a free society, what is the judicial system’s obligation in that matter; very little. However, the judge just may be trying to save someone else’s life, because clearly, she does not respect authority, or the law, hence driving on a suspended license.
“Let quit with the hypocrisy. The simple fact of the matter is if she were NOT famous her lawyer and the prosecutor would of plea bargained this case and she would of spent little or no time in jail. The only reason she is in jail is so the Judge and the DA can mug for the cameras. Max time in jail for a normal case of this sort would be about 7 days with time off for work release”
The Sheriff cited “medical reasons” for her release. Since when does the Sheriff modify the Judges terms of release? That’s special treatment. The reason she is in jail is because she is a 3rd time offender - DUI, 2 driving on a suspended license charges. She has shown a total disregard for the law - she feels that she’s Paris Hilton and she’s above it. The law applies to everyone, like it or lump it.

What's "really pathetic", is that you think it's OK to defend people who think it's OK to break the law.
You are correct. I was ready to be arrested for erratic driving myself after hearing a black caller on talk radio yesterday in L.A. complain that if this had been a poor black girl, she wouldn’t have had the opportunity to go home.
First off, if it had been a rich black girl, sure, she would have. Like Nicole Richie (not sure if she is black or not).
Let’s face it. Rich is better than poor. You eat better. You have a better home. And, guess what, you have better lawyers. If it weren’t better to have lots of money, why would anyone want it? Sometimes the poor forgets that if they were rich they’d do the same dam* thing.
Her lawyer didplea bargain her case. It went from a DUI to alcohol related reckless driving with no jail time and a suspended license. Most of those also come with a requirement to attend a certain number of AA type classes. She chose to ignore the suspended license and kept on driving. We never heard about her taking any classes...special treatment??? Hmmmm???

You’re in love with Paris,aren’t you?
You have made some good points, but the facts are that the only reason she is doing time, and not a big fine, or massive community service is that LA's laws have certain requirements for repeat offences (or more specific, her DWI's and driving with a suspended licience repeatedly).
If she was anyone else, she would not be doing 7 days and time off. Personally I think the state would have beneffited if she was given a large fine (lets call a spade a spade here, its not like her being in jail makes the world safer or something).
Never the less, my personal gripe is with the sheriff because I think he wanted her to go home because he simply didn't want to deal with 1) a Media circus, 2) The risk of her killing herself, 3)The possibility of a prision riot.
The fact that he gets a paycheck from taxpayers for doing his job, means he does not get a break when some kind of difficulty comes up, when you get that paycheck, you do not have the right to make exceptions because the job gets a little hard sometimes. He didn't feel like dealing with a headache, but he had no problem cashing his paycheck, so be broke the rules, and that is more wrong then anything Hilton did or ever will do.
If the judge threw the book at her, she asked for it.
The hype and hysteria and the hoopla and the paparazzi are enabled because of people just like you. Poor Paris...she’s hot.
How about we get to the bare facts - Paris HAD probation - she was on it when this latest charge of speeding at 70 MPH with no headlights at night happened. She was a danger to others. AND she paraded into court late. She was not acting remorseful, she was haughty and arrogant. She got what ANY haughty arrogant criminal would get - she got jail time. Big deal.
She is a 26 year old woman. They have them a lot younger than that in there. She is not dying from cancer, she does not have a communicable disease - she is rich, white and spoiled. She should have thought about her pampered life style when she was so disdainful of the judge and the judicial system. Tough for her, I hope she grows up.

Do you mean “would HAVE”?
