Guilty! Guilty! Guilty! [Paris Hilton]

They even have things called “Taxi-Cabs” nowadays which will drive a person from point A to point B for a relatively small fee. They even made a documentary tv series about them, starring Judd Hirsh, Christopher Lloyd and Danny DeVito. :smiley:

That’s it! I didn’t know it up and bit her, though. :slight_smile:

According to the distinguished legal website, Entertainment Tonight, she is now driving legally:

Generally speaking, having one’s driver’s license reinstated requires more than just the expiration of time. I don’t know about California, but in Ohio the person has to also pay what would be a hefty reinstatement fee (about $350, more or less) to the BMV and maintain expensive “high risk” insurance.

Not if she didn’t file the papers to get it back, she isn’t. (If I am not mistaken, anyway.) Also, doesn’t the violation of probation mean the liscense is still suspended? Can they take it away permanently for violating probation like that?

Can you blame it? If I had to sit on her shoulder all day, I’d get testy too. The conversation alone would drive me insane.

13,986 of the signers were just people who didn’t read the petition but figured they’d do her now that she’d finally dropped down from “Really Cheap Paris Hilton”.

They should throw the mother into the slammer, too, for contempt of court at her outburst.

I don’t give two flying Fs about what this individual gets up to. I will grant her a small slice of credit for figuring out how to market what little talent and notoriety she has and benefiting from it. People actually seem to care about what she does, what she wears, where she goes, and what she sings. :eek: Some even want to see her naked! :eek: :eek: :eek:

However, she’s pissed me off with this petition nonsense. She doesn’t have a legitimate excuse for not obeying the law, but she and her harebrained advisors think there’s a justification for wasting anyone’s time with this? Are you serious?

Had she done anything, ever, in her life in the service of someone else, perhaps I could muster up some sympathy. The best she can come up with is that her existence gives people levity in their otherwise mundane lives? :rolleyes:

I’m sure this will be the source of some new TV show or exploitation, so I don’t know why she’s even bothering trying to stop it. But here’s an idea! Why not take a low key approach, do your time (which will be a walk in the park, a few days at most) and grow the fuck up?

Idiot woman-child.

Has anyone linked the actual petition yet?

I found this one . To balance it out I also found a counter petition .

There needs to be a third petition: Send Paris Into Outspace one way.

Umm, maybe this deserves it’s own thread, but… Paris Hilton nude statue ???

(link is actually probably work safe for you)

Actually, I think there should be a “Pimp Paris Petition.” The government should confiscate all her assets, and place a tax on every single news story about her (and other useless bints like her), with Paris earning a small percentage of the taxes collected on the stories about her. Her assets and the bulk of the taxes collected would be used to fund scholarships for underprivledged women. This would accomplish two things: 1.) It would actually give some purpose to her otherwise meaningless life. 2.) Those of us who can’t stand the addled twat could take comfort in the fact that if we have to be bombarded with news stories about her, at least some good is coming from it. :smiley:

And here’s Paris smoking a doobie: A joint before the joint?

And now her jail time’s been cut for good behavior..

Special needs indeed. There just aren’t enough roll-eyes to cover this. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

That may not be as sinister as it looks. Many jurisdictions allow the sheriff (or whoever is in charge of the jail) to give “good time” credit to inmates who stay out of trouble unless the court specifically says their sentences must be served “flat time,” i.e. day for day. Courts and prosecutors usually only “flat time” a defendant if they’re really p.o.'d at them for something, like absconding or being a jerk in court. “Good time” credit is usually 2 for 1, which halves your sentence, or 3 for 1, which cuts it to one third of your sentence. It looks like Paris is receiving 2 for 1 good time. If that’s what any other defendant in her situation would receive, I don’t have a problem with it.

As for the special needs facility, that’s probably standard as well, not so much out of consideration for Paris as a general security concern. Famous or otherwise conspicuous inmates like police officers are a security risk for jails and prisons. They don’t want the headache and/or liability of the inmate in constant danger of being assaulted or worse, so they segregate them from the general population. They do the same thing with Charles Manson.

Probably the first time these two individuals have been directly compared to each other.

This seems reasonable, but the question in my mind is - why did she receive her sentence slashing for “good behavior” before it has even begun? (she is supposed to report for jail on June 5)

I remember when she first started appearing on magazine covers. I was in a small mom-and-pop convenience store and glimpsed the magazine rack. On one cover, I saw this blonde wearing a barely-there dress with the front cut down to her navel, legs agape, and a slutty, come-hither look on her face.

I was about to address the manager about placing “Hustler” magazine within reach of kids when I noticed that the magazine was a mainstream fashion mag, not the porno mag.
