paris hilton walks

im not sure what the sheriff officials were thinking when they decided to let ms. hilton go. it sends a horrible message to society, reinforcing a common belief that if you have money you are in fact above the law.

what makes this situation worse is not only the class issues but also the race dynamics. a black girl or latina would not have received the same preferential treatment.

so paris is crying and is cold at night so she gets house arrest? give her a blanket for goodness sake. it jail! not the hilton.

i have some numbers for people to call to complain. she needs to go back to jail and finish her sentence.
