Paris Hilton Makes Grown Men Act Like Shameless Idiots

parisweeping.jpg

It was with shock and awe that we observed the media coverage and the subsequent frenzy over the last few days as Paris Hilton was ordered back to jail.

At the beginning of this ordeal, people watched with gleeful joy over Paris‘ impending stay in the big house. While it’s certainly not surprising that as a culture we would respond this way to such a mystical, but generally useless public figure as Paris, it is kind of disheartening too. If you take away her status, feigned stupidity, and rampant vapidness, she is just a young woman who broke a law that many otherwise good people have broken in their lives. Lots and lots of people have had DUI’s. Really nice and responsible people who made a mistake. Lots of people take a chance and drive on a suspended license, for LOTS of reasons, not all bad. But this is Paris Hilton, not those other people. And we LOVE, SIMPLY LOVE to see her and her ilk suffer, just like we LOVE to see them live a life we simply can’t imagine.

Apparently this fascination of Paris extends to esteemed Judges and Sheriffs. No matter how much we all wanted to see Paris go to jail (I sure as hell did) that doesn’t mean her sentence was fair or even reasonable. It wasn’t. It was over-the-top and up in her grill all ghetto style. Judge Sauer took it upon himself, with his position of authority, to send a message to the elite and regular folks alike, “If you act all uppity and snotty and make a mockery of our laws because you live a privileged life and think you are special, well, F-U!” That’s not “justice” that’s making an example of someone, and while in theory, that should be a good thing, it’s not how our legal system works. We are all equal under the eyes of the law. You shouldn’t show favoritism to the rich, but you shouldn’t treat them worse either. Whatever sentence a regular person would have gotten under the same circumstances was what Paris should have gotten. I doubt that would be 45 days in jail. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, but in this case it was severe.

baca-in-uniform.jpgAnd worse than Judge Michael Sauer is Sheriff Lee Baca. What a shameless, star-struck attention-whore this two-bit yokel with a badge is. Honestly, for crying out loud could he be more in the pocket of the Hilton clan? Sweet Mother of Mercy this man is a joke. Sheriff Baca broke the law in deciding to break rank and make the decision about how Paris Hilton was to carry out the remainder of her sentence. It wasn’t his decision to make. If he had an issue with her sentence and her well-being there were propers channels to go through and appropriate measures to take. I am actually offended. Baca’s behavior was an affront to my delicate sensibilities. I can’t remember ever seeing someone of his level of authority embarrass and fawn over a person as utterly contemptuous and without usefulness to society as Paris Hilton. This guy acted like he was saving some saintlyesqe victim of persecution.

Paris Hilton’s no saint, she’s a slut who hates gays, Jews and others of various ethnicities. She’s practically the patron saint of the KKK, not a modern day Joan of Arc.

That said, she still didn’t deserve 45 days in jail. She deserved about a week, and then about 400 hours of community service where she had to help children in an oncology ward and victims in the burn unit. She should have been forced to pick up trash by the side of the freeway on hot smoggy summer days and then be on house arrest at night. This whole media explosion has only cemented her warped sense of entitlement.

Thanks morons. Paris was only annoying before, now she’s going to be UNBEARABLE.

  1. I am tired of hearing that Paris Hilton got a tougher sentence than an ordinary person. She got the sentence that any ordinary person who paraded into court 30 minutes late on a violation of probation charge and then displayed a disrespectful attitude would have received. Her behavior in court clearly indicated that she had learned NOTHING from her previous encounters with the law, and that she would continue to repeat her mistakes without some sort of wake-up call. I believe the judge gave her the wake up call that he felt would actually reach her. This is what happens to ALL defendants. I work in the court system, and see ordinary Jane’s and Joe’s get the book thrown at them when they disrespect the court and fail to learn their lessons. This happens all the time, and I do not believe Paris Hilton was treated any differently than anyone else. Its just that most people wouldn’t have been dumb enough to parade into court late with an entourage of people who all believed that she was above the law.

  7. Paris has absolutely no excuse for driving with a suspended licence of driving drunk, and no matter her apearence she is not a girl she is a woman, who is old enough to realize that when your a multi milionare its not that hard to hire a shofer, a limo or even hall a cab.

    America, be very thankfull you still have judges who would send paris to jail for even ONE day, in other countrys someone that rich would get away with murder, and probably do, hopefully jail time will make her stop acting like an idiot, im sick and tierd of my girlfriends turning into little parises

  13. Paris got exactly what I as a Mexican male got for probation violation after a DUI. So it really pisses me off to hear people say that the punishment was severe. Shes rotting like anyone of us would under the same circumstances.

  15. Give Paris a break…it’s not her fault that she was born into a rich family…You are all jealous and the judge did make an extreme example of her…So she made a mistake and she should serve sometime in prison, but let’s face it…she will get a lot of media attention and there are a lot of terrible people that will profit from this…She is not like everyone else and people love to stomp on her, when she’s down - she has every right to be afraid. Until you are in her shoes, everyone needs to chill..

  21. Chelsea was absolutely correct. She didn’t get time for violating probation. She got her sentence for pissing off the judge. Anyone who has had REAL experience with the court system know that you piss off a judge at your own peril. If you have been foolish enough to make a mistake which brings you under their authority you had beeter realize that they must be taken ABSOLUTELY seriously because they have almost TOTAL power over what happens to you. Paris has never really experienced anyone MORE POWERFUL than she was.. She is paying the price now.

  27. Paris Hilton due to her wealth, fame and upbringing does (or at least did until now) think she was above the law we all live under. First, she drove drunk and was caught in Sept.’06. She pled “no contest”, was put on 36 months probation with a suspended license, paid a $1500.00 fine and was told to attend AA classes. She only paid the fine but disregarded the other two parts of her sentence. In Jan.”07 she was pulled over in a routine traffic stop and was found driving with a suspended license. Claiming ignorance she was then given a affidavit to sign informing her that her driving privileges were still were suspended for another 33 months. She was released but her car had to be towed away. In Feb.’07 she was spotted driving erratically with the headlights turned off at night. When stopped and given a breathalyzer test, Ms. Hilton had BAC rating over the legal limit and again she’s driving with a suspended license. So to hell with the author of this article or anyone else who think Paris Hilton is getting a raw deal. She is a 2 bit snot nose scofflaw who thinks she is better than everybody else. Hurray for this judge who sent this pig to jail because that’s exactly what she deserves. Anybody who takes her side in this gas ZERO credibility. Let her be out drinking and drugging it up some night driving crazily and run you over or somebody in your family or someone you know. Then come back here and cry about poor Paris. Yeah, I’ll bet. You’ll be right up there demanding her scalp. Hypocrites make me laugh.

  29. I call bullshit.

    (1) As I understand it, it’s a matter of California statute and policy for prosecutors to seek 45 days’ jail time in DUI probation violations. I also understand that there was a possible two-year sentence in the cards for Ms. Hilton.

    Unless you’re certain that I’m not correct, you’re certainly jumping to conclusions in suggesting the judge overreacted, aren’t you?

    (2)I don’t know if Mario (Comment 7) got his 45-day sentence in California, but if he did (and maybe if he didn’t), he has every right to resent the suggestion that Paris’ was too severe. And every right to resent the fact that she damn near got off with less.

    (3) Even if I’m wrong on points 1 and 2, Chelsea in comment #1 certainly gives food for thought. IS the judge making an example of Paris? Or is he just giving her a sentence of sufficient gravity to finally get it into her thick, empty little skull? The evidence at hand suggests to me that it’s the latter, in which case the judge should frankly get an award for doing his job with real dedication.

    (God knows he deserves SOME kind of consolation prize, seeing as how he’s undoubtedly blacklisted from ever staying at a Hilton hotel again.)

    A culture where people derives sadistic pleasure and gloating over the sufferings of another people, some kind of culture indeed.

    >If you take away her status, feigned stupidity, and rampant vapidness, she is just a young woman who broke a law that many otherwise good people have broken in their lives.

    She will still be a very beautiful young woman even without her status, feigned stupidity, and rampant vapidness.

    >Lots and lots of people have had DUI’s. Really nice and responsible people who made a mistake. Lots of people take a chance and drive on a suspended license, for LOTS of reasons, not all bad.

    I would have done it sooner than Mr. Baca if I were in his position.

    >I am actually offended. Baca’s behavior was an affront to my delicate sensibilities.

    I am sure Mr. Baca had no intention to offend your delicate sensibilities, he probably didn’t even know you.

    >I can’t remember ever seeing someone of his level of authority embarrass and fawn over a person as utterly contemptuous and without usefulness to society as Paris Hilton. This guy acted like he was saving some saintlyesqe victim of persecution.

    “….utterly contemptuous and withour usefulness to society”…really? If you think that bad about Ms. Hilton, I am genuinely interested in your opinion regarding Vanessa Coleman ( the only female perpetrator in the slaughter of Ms. Christian Channon ).

    >Paris Hilton’s no saint, she’s a slut who hates gays, Jews and others of various ethnicities. She’s practically the patron saint of the KKK, not a modern day Joan of Arc.

    How you define “Saint”? Someone like Mother Teresa?
    Maybe Ms. Hilton all those bad things you said she is but Mr. Al Sharpton, MLK, you, me are no saint either.

    >That said, she still didn’t deserve 45 days in jail. She deserved about a week, and then about 400 hours of community service where she had to help children in an oncology ward and victims in the burn unit.

    I think Ms. Hilton would not mind picking up thrash since she had done worse things in “Simple Life”.

    >Thanks morons. Paris was only annoying before, now she’s going to be UNBEARABLE.

    Why is it you think that she will be unbearable? And why you found her to be annoying before? Did she harm you in any way (real or imaginary)?

  33. There is buzz on the gossip columns that her parents are planning on giving her a big party to celebrate her release.

    It is a good thing that the Hiltons have all that money, because they’re going to be spending a lot of it every time Paris gets in trouble, lands in jail (or suffers some other consequences) and then is released.

    It is painfully obvious that none of these people are learning any sort of lesson here. Their poor little daughter has to deal with the real-life consequences of her actions? Tres horrible. The parents and siblings might have to deal with the fallout from a wayward child’s misdeeds? Surely not, that’s for the common folk.

    Paris wasn’t being treated any differently by the judge….but she sure is being treated differently by the Sheriff. She got caught breaking the law. She got caught breaking the law and the terms of her probation (since when is “I have people to read my mail for me” a defense? I dare anyone else to try it). She got caught thumbing her rich downturned nose at the law. And she got called on it by a judge who wasn’t buying any of her rich-girl you-can-rely-on-the-old-man’s-money bull. She’s goin’ too far ’cause she know it won’t matter anyway, indeed.

    And….she ticked off the judge. You don’t tick off the law. And a judge is the layer-down of the law. Period. You yes-sir and no-sir and I’m-sorry-sir through your time for him and you hope he has some mercy on you, but he might not, and as long as he stays within the confines of the law, he holds your immediate future in his hands.

    She went to jail not because she’s rich or blonde or pretty or whatever. She went to jail because she repeatedly broke the law. It’s really just that simple.

    Indeed, the Hiltons, especially the currently incarcerated Ms. Hilton must be extra cautious in the future because there are people who would want to see her suffer again.

    >It is painfully obvious that none of these people are learning any sort of lesson here. Their poor little daughter has to deal with the real-life consequences of her actions? Tres horrible.

    How a plan to throw a party has anything to do with “learning any sort of lesson”? Mr. Rick Hilton is probably just wants to cheer-up her daughter with the party and wants to show her that he still loves her so much no matter what had happened. Now if I were Mr. Rick Hilton, this I would say to her : You learned your lesson, dear? From now on be very careful, there are people who would be very happy if something bad happens to you again. If you ever broke the law again, you would surely receive again a punishment indisproportionate to your crime.

    >Paris wasn’t being treated any differently by the judge….but she sure is being treated differently by the Sheriff. She got caught breaking the law.

    I happen to find her nose to be just cute, correction, I find her overall facial features to be very cute.
    Yes, she broke the law and she must be extra cautious from now on.

    >And….she ticked off the judge. You don’t tick off the law. And a judge is the layer-down of the law. Period.

    Unlike the law of physics which men can not bend, the laws of men are subject to manipulations.

    >She went to jail not because she’s rich or blonde or pretty or whatever. She went to jail because she repeatedly broke the law. It’s really just that simple.

    It has to do with her being the most photographed and the most drooled upon beaufiful blonde on the planet, some people resent it and thus seek to utilize every opportunity available to inflict maximum sufferings onto her.
    I genuinely believe it has also to do with her being white, if she were black perhaps the cops wouldn’t bother her so much (that driving when black thing) and sure as hell Al Sharpton will not raise hell about a black girl released from the jail earlier.

  37. I will agree with Krusty about Al Sharpton! There is no way in hell he would bitch and complain if it were a black person being released from prison early. Trust me I’m not a fan of Paris and I’m glad she was sent back to jail but Sharpton really gets on his soap box when it comes to color. In his eyes it’s not about the law it’s all about the skin. And he actually knows Paris and likes her…. and he’s the first one out there yelling about the “sisters” not being given the same treatment. He’s the biggest racist I’ve ever seen.

  39. (I apologize…my formatting seems to have messed up in my previous post)

    Okay. Who’s the wiseass who gave Paris an Internet connection from the med ward and taught her to spell Krusty like they do on the Simpsons?

    I guess that “stopping acting dumb” line is true.

    -Unlike the law of physics which men can not bend, the laws of men are subject to manipulations.-

    Correct. And if you tick off the judge by being disrespectful, then he can give you the max, according to law. I stand by what I said….she really messed up when she got busted TWICE for driving on a suspended license, and appearing to not care what the court thought. That is a huge judicial no-no. Nobody is above the law, even if you are blonde and rich.

    -I happen to find her nose to be just cute, correction, I find her overall facial features to be very cute…It has to do with her being the most photographed and the most drooled upon beaufiful blonde on the planet, some people resent it and thus seek to utilize every opportunity available to inflict maximum sufferings onto her.-

    Puhleeze. Obviously the blood is not flowing to your brain. I could not begin to care less if she is cute, blonde, or rich, as long as she doesn’t use her cuteness, blondeness (coughoutofabottle), or richness to flaunt the law that the rest of us have to abide by. Her family has money, she has money, she is considered to be attractive, and therefore that entitles her to special treatment? If it had been a “regular person”, they would have had to serve at least ten days or more for a violation of this nature.

    And as far as the party goes…I put her parents right up there with sleazebag Joe Simpson. They are enablers to the nth degree, unable to see that their precious daughter is screwing up her life, and unwilling to get her any sort of help other than “yes-people”. I mean, good Lord, Paris is twenty-six years old, and they treat her like she’s a little girl! I am all for one’s family being around in times of need, but they act like Paris is a shy little ingenue who just can’t cope with the big bad world.

    I’m not advocating that Paris be judged harsher than the average person just because of who she is, or how she looks, or how rich she is. But I am saying that she does NOT deserve special treatment because of those things, and it appears that she IS getting it.

    they let her have an internet connection? Really….you don’t say? Well…excellent.

    >I guess that “stopping acting dumb” line is true.

    I would miss that, I think she was really really cute when she did that pouting lips of hers with that sweet innocent look on her face.

    >>Unlike the law of physics which men can not bend, the laws of men are subject to manipulations.-

    And I stand by what I had said, she did break the law and she must be extra cautious from now on for there are people who would be thrilled to see her suffer again in the future.

    >Nobody is above the law, even if you are blonde and rich.

    If she were black, she would have got a much better shot at da law. 99% chance is that Sauer would have sentenced her to spend 45 minutes in jail, fearing that the likes of Sharpton and Jesse Jackson will scream for his blood if the sentencing were any longer.

    >>I happen to find her nose to be just cute, correction, I find her overall facial features to be very cute…It has to do with her being the most photographed and the most drooled upon beaufiful blonde on the planet, some people resent it and thus seek to utilize every opportunity available to inflict maximum sufferings onto her.-

If it had been a “regular person”, they would have had to serve at least ten days or more for a violation of this nature.

    au contraire, according to Mr. Mark Geragos :

    “In fact, she did about double to triple what anybody else would have done. Normally what happens — and I’ve got three clients and I think I told you last time, similarly situated clients. I’ve had one within the last week who literally turned themselves in, took the bus ride and were released right from county jail onto the electronic monitoring and then was released from that in six days.
    If you do what Paris did, where you turn yourself into the jail, then they will not — they’ll just turn you around and release you immediately. So when people say was Paris getting special treatment, I say, yes. She got double or triple what everybody else in L.A. County gets.”
    Mr Geragos also said : “I just go back to what I said before and whether it was anybody else. When we cast this as celebrity justice, the problem you’ve got is you can go back, find me one person who’s gotten a 45- day sentence for a driving offense who’s doing this kind of time. There isn’t anybody else who’s doing it.”

    >And as far as the party goes…I put her parents right up there with sleazebag Joe Simpson.

    Who is Joe Simpson? Is he related to Abraham Simpson?

    >They are enablers to the nth degree, unable to see that their precious daughter is screwing up her life, and unwilling to get her any sort of help other than “yes-people”.

    The haters of their precious daughter are the ones that screwing hp her life.

    >I mean, good Lord, Paris is twenty-six years old, and they treat her like she’s a little girl! I am all for one’s family being around in times of need, but they act like Paris is a shy little ingenue who just can’t cope with the big bad world.

    hmm….who said that line….”you will always be my special little guy” can’t remember her name but she got the bluest hair I’ve ever seen.
    this maybe an alien concept for some people but sometimes parents just love their kids so much to the extent that they want to continue to view her as mommy’s and daddy’s sweet little girl. Heck! I would if I had a daughter as sweet and pretty as Ms. Hilton!

    >I’m not advocating that Paris be judged harsher than the average person just because of who she is, or how she looks, or how rich she is. But I am saying that she does NOT deserve special treatment because of those things, and it appears that she IS getting it.

    Much to the contrary, she was judged harsher than the average person and people are cheering her fall from grace, wishing she got beaten up in prison, etc. Schadenfreude at its vilest.

  43. Well, Krusty, here’s the deal. I don’t want to see her punished more than the average person, but I also don’t want to see her get off scot-free just because of who she is or what she looks like. There’s a happy medium in there somewhere.

    And I do believe that her parents, in their desire to give her all the things she wants, neglected to give her the one thing that a parent can give a child that truly shows love for that child….discipline. Without the discipline of the parent, the child can never truly learn self-discipline. Paris, in her public escapades, has shown that she has no self-discipline and she also has no clue that the boundaries of the world at large also apply to her. Treating a grown woman, who is almost thirty years old, like she’s a little hothouse flower is not right. Paris is a grown woman….but neither one’s physical age nor one’s ability to move out nor one’s ability to drive or sign checks or vote constitutes adulthood and maturity and being “grown up”. Paris has lived in a bubble of her own making for so long that she honestly has no clue of the real world.

    Does she then deserve a harsher sentence than the average person? No….but, again, she also doesn’t deserve a lesser one either.

    I have no desire to see harm come to her, so don’t lump me in with those people. Nowhere have I said that I want something bad to happen to her. I just want her to serve her time that the judge said she should serve………which is what anyone else would have to do. And let’s face it….when she gets out she’ll still go back to a luxury that other inmates there will never, ever know in their wildest dreams.

    I don’t see what the fuss is about concerning her. I don’t think she’s particularly pretty, nor does she present herself as being too intelligent, and it seems all she has going for her is a thin body and lots of money. But I don’t hate Paris. In fact, I feel sorry for her, that she has never had the opportunity to become a woman, instead of a perpetual teenage joke. But maybe, just maybe, this could make her realize that there is life, good and bad, beyond the latest new fashion or party. And maybe she’ll think twice before going to get behind the wheel after she’s been drinking.

  45. I’ve basically been doing nothing worth mentioning. Not much on my mind to speak of. Not that it matters. More or less nothing seems important.,
