I don't get the point of that question. This isn't about anyone but Paris as she is the one who is tangled up in the legal system. Yes, it sucks for her she got a hardass judge, and then got bent over even further with the release-return BS, but that's what happened. If you consistently make bad choices, and then thumb your nose at the legal process, it's going to catch up to you at some point. Turning around and trying to point the finger back at whomever happens to be pointing out she deserves what she gets is just running around in rhetorical circles.

BTW - It's really interesting that one of the best discussions we've had on this forum is about Paris Hilton.

I think the idea is, is that people get traffic violations that can lead to suspended liscenses all the time. People get tickets, they speed right after getting them, or a few days later. People make a mockery of the laws governing the road, get caught, pay a little fine, maybe go to traffic school, and do it again. They dont learn their lesson, there just waiting for the next time their speeding (reckless driving basically) gets them pulled over.

Sure a lot of people do that. They eventually do it enough, they will get the book thrown at them as well. Just because a lot of people are speeders and repeatedly break the law doesn't make Paris any more right or likeable.

True, but it just shows that she's no different than most of the people hateing on her. Be it driving after a drink, or speeding on the highway.

Guess what, I don't like them either. Don't think it's just Paris. I am equal opportunity. You don't have to be Paris Hilton for me to dislike your actions. If someone drives drunk, is a vapid idiot, repeatedly breaks the law, is spoiled and condescending and contributes about zero to society, I really don't care for them either.

She IS a criminal, and maybe she wasn't a "murderer" this time, but if she doesn't learn her lesson by serving a little time, she could easily become a murderer, because in my opinion anyone who drives drunk is a murderer that may have gotten lucky.....I had a brother killed by a drunk driver...so in my opinion GOOD, send her to jail and everyone else that thinks taking a drink and then getting on the road isn't a problem! Because as much as everyone likes to fool themselves....a couple drinks DOES make a difference and DOES KILL!

Well, I think most of the upset is famous/wealthy people get treated differently than the rest of us (she isn't the only one guilty of that, of course) and how she's handling. DUIs are bad. There's no question about it. However, what bothers me more is how entitled she's acting. Whining in court and throwing a hissy fit is ridiculous. When you choose to break the law, you also choose to deal with the possibility of dealing with the law.

As I have said before, I hope others will learn from my mistake. I have also had time to read the mail from my fans. I very much appreciate all of their good wishes and hope they will keep their letters coming. I must also say that I was shocked to see all of the attention devoted to the amount of time I would spend in jail for what I had done by the media, public and city officials. I would hope going forward that the public and the media will focus on more important things, like the men and women serving our country in Iraq, Afghanistan and other places around the world."

Then stop courting the media you twat. Perhaps she'll finish it out and learn something.

the point of that question is, everyone breaks the law just not everyone gets caught, speeding is breaking the law and is consider reckless driveing.. doesnt matter if they did get caught and paid there fine.. what IF they hit and killed some one.
i agree paris did break the law, but its really petty to have to go through all this for driveing on a suspended license.

If driving on the suspended license was the only thing she ever did, if all she ever did was get the DUI, then do her penance, then drive on the suspended license, it honestly probably would have gone without notice.
But she can't go that route, she flagrantly thumbs her nose repeatedly at any and all authorit figures around her, whether it's the law or someone else, and it caught up to her.

Yeah, Paris wrote that. Bollocks

Oh, and....fans?

Yes a lot of people do that, but they had to make an example out of someone and show spoiled rich kids that mommy's and daddy's money can't get you out of every situation.

Parole and Probation are two completely different things. Someone gets out on parole once they leave jail and the governor of the state decides that. Probation is used to keep track of the people that got into trouble/just got out of jail.

OK well i couldnt use my "?" mark button sorrrrrry..lol.

anyways it was intended as a question and i dont care what the diffrence is seeing as how ive never had a dui ( then again i dont drink) and still broke the law thereafter and never been on parole or probation and god willing i never will be, but my point has been the same since the begining "SHE DID THE CRIME AND NOW SHES DOING HER TIME!" like she should have been since the day she turned her self in and not used a medical condition as a cop out.....

dont get me wrong i like paris but she needs to pay her dues

yeah, i figured it out. if it would of been anyone else other than paris hilton opinions would of been diffrent..

 

[MiCHiE]

Like DMX?

I think it's especially harder for her because all of her behind the wheel mistakes are documented, one way or another....Best Week Ever, Celebrity Eye Candy, US Weekly, etc...
