Paris Headed from the Big House to the Real Big House

As many people know Paris Hilton was sentenced to 45 days in prison for violating her probation and disregarding the law on several occasions. The sentence was reduced to 23 days due to overcrowding. Paris reported to jail 3 nights ago and has been the brunt of late night jokes. I had written that she deserved to go to jail because she acted like the law did not apply to her because she is rich. I had changed my mind and decided that if millions of ILLEGALS deserved amnesty then so did Paris. In any regard the system showed us that people with money can get what they want. First of all they had a special set up there so she was not with the general population. Then, she was suddenly released last night because of medical problems which seem to amount to nothing more than she did not eat the food. It probably wasn’t up to her sophisticated tastes. Paris will now spend her original time (45 days minus time served) which, after goofy California math, equals 40 days, in her home with an ankle surveillance bracelet on.

So we have poor Paris Hilton having to be confined for 40 days in her house that is probably as big as the entire jail house she just left. Oh poor Paris and the strain on her to have to be home where she can use a phone, a computer, watch TV, eat what and when she wants and use the toilet without an audience. Yeah she sure has it tough. What pinhead in the judicial system decided that Hilton was so sick that she had to be sent home and how do regular criminals get the same deal? How many criminals die in jail because they are terminally ill while poor Paris gets out after three days because she won’t eat the food?

I guess this won’t make the criminals who were already pissed at her feel any better about her. Paris, for her part, hopes that people learned from her experience. Experience? Experience indicates you have done something long enough to have gained some knowledge. Paris spent three days in jail so what could she have learned? Obviously she learned she did not like it but that is just assumed about anyone who faces jail.

I guess what America learned from her experience is that if you are rich you can break the law as much as you want and even though they will talk tough to you by the time it is over you still get special treatment. People learned that Paris Hilton is basically above the law and that we regular folks could never, ever, expect that kind of treatment. Poor Paris, don’t get hurt on your home detention.

Maybe the warden made a movie with her…
