Amen sister. The fact that there were petitions to keep her out of jail using the sentence "It's not like she ACTUALLY killed anyone!" made me reel in the stupidity. Since when are we supposed to wait until AFTER someone has died to try and deter irresponsible, life-threatening behaviour like that?! And *repeatedly*!
I know a lot of people drive under the influence. A LOT. That fact bothers me. The fact that "everyone does it" doesn't make it more acceptable, and it definitely doesn't make it any safer. I'm so, so glad that she's in jail, and yes, some of it is because it's Paris Hilton and I can't stand her, but a lot of it is because her "I'm the only real person" attitude is one that shouldn't go unchecked. She put any number of lives at risk; she got caught; she should pay the price. Like anyone should. This is definitely not "too harsh".
Every time I see a 'free Paris' icon, I want to punch a bitch.
I didn't know there was such a thing. I'm kind of sick a little bit, now. :P
