Because she's an idiot, that's why.

Paris Hilton sent back to jail.

I'm torn between laughing in morbid amusement and wanting to buy a ticket to stand in line and smack her smug, spoiled-rotten ass. Can she and her family behave a little more like she's being sent to death row? It's forty-five days, you useless hag. You're the moron who drove with a suspended license when you could afford half a dozen drivers to be at your beck and call. Suck it up.

And I really don't think "unable to guarantee a steady supply of cocaine/meth/whatever she's on" counts as a medical condition.

(I wouldn't even have mentioned this whole debacle if reading about it and seeing all the pictures of her bawling in the back of the police cruiser didn't give me rage blackouts.)

My favorite (quote unquote) part of this whole debacle (which I can't stand to really pay attention to, for the most part) is the statement she released after she was sentenced.

It said something along the lines of "This will teach me to take a more active role in the decisions affecting my life."

Because right now she doesn't think she has to run her own life. She's pissed off about all of this because she thinks it's everyone elses fault she's in this predicament. It's ragey and it's hilarious.

In what is doubtless completely unrelated news, the sheriff who let her out was given $1,000 by Paris Hilton's father last year.

This is, of course, the same gentleman who managed to avoid punishing Mel Gibson for being an anti-semitic nutball.

Yeah, that's pretty much how I feel about it, too.

I mean, I assume the LA jails are familiar with what happens when people detox, so whatever she's on, they have probably dealt with before. And while, yeah, it probably is really scary to someone like her who is both very social and able to buy companionship to be actually really alone with her thoughts all day... And yeah, I mean, assuming she has thoughts, but then, I reckon she has some. They may be fairly shallow, but surely there's neural activity there somewhere.

Really, if I were her mama, I'd tell her honey, take the opportunity to read and think and whatever, and just ride it out. It's going to suck, and then it will be over.

Course, if I were her mama there would have been considerably more consequences for behavior earlier in her life so I wouldn't have to say that. Heh.

[wal-lace.livejournal.com]

Of course she has thoughts. Her people explained when she started her sentence that she was going to spend it thinking about how she could make the world a Better Place.

I'm voting convent, but I believe the 'bloody decapitation' lobby has rather more support.

Can we just, like, leave her in jail? And just forget to ever let her out?

[catystorm.livejournal.com]

She screamed? Oh, for fuck's sake.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I KNOW. They make it sound like she was wrongly convicted for drowning a nun. And her mother sobbing uncontrollably? Jesus, if it were me, my mother would have handed me a bag full of books and sudoku magazines to kill time and said, "Serves you right, dumbass." And I would have agreed.

But ... but ... but she has a medical condition! She needs constant access to expensive alcohol to live! She's martiniglycemic!

[chris-walsh.livejournal.com]

"wrongly convicted for drowning a nun"? "martiniglycemic"? Win, you do.

*ups his thumbs in a thumbs-up manner, much like Borat*

I'm not afraid to admit I did a little cheer when she was sent back. Other people have survived withdrawls in jail she can too. Plus they are set up for that stuff. Joe average can do it Paris can too.

You just know she's going to use the reports of this trial as her audition for the next sucky movie that's dumb enough to cast her.

Silly child.

[gweneiriol.livejournal.com]

Suck it up.

My thoughts exactly!

[azurelunatic]

She seriously sounds like a spoiled twelve-year-old.

[lunardreamed.livejournal.com]

It's so ridiculous. First she shows up in her gray and white, mock nun outfit. She walks down the row of cells waving and smiling to the other inmates. The detailed play by play really gets to me. I didn't get this kind of detail when the local murderer was tried. She gasped as the judge said jail at 9:47. She shook when the judge banged his gavel at 9:53. She cried and looked back at her mother at 9:58. She said "I love you" at 10:02. A couple of days ago, Insider broadcasted that she had "three thin blankets and no pillow" and she is "reportedly using one of the blankets as a pillow." Yes. That's what normal people do when low on pillows. It is not news worthy. Certainly not worthy of the importance of a "reportedly."

And for the record, I am in a wheelchair and have to go through hell and spend a fortune on evaluations and training so that they will let me drive (and that has nothing to do with the modifications I will need). I get around by bus and the goodwill of fellow drivers. I have no sympathy for her. She should have her sentence doubled just for making all this drama over a little jail time.

[sabra-n.livejournal.com]

Wait, it's hard to get drugs in jail now?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Well, not the quality stuff.

I don't think.

I knew nothing about the whole Paris Hilton thing (and only recognise her because she was in an episode of Veronica Mars, but digress) until I saw this article (http://www.gearlog.com/2007/06/paris_hilton_gets_a_cellmate_i.php) about Paris having a wi-fi bunny (http://www.nabaztag.com) to keep her company in her prison cell. I love my bunny, but I can't imagine how it would work to have one in a prison cell.... I imagine he reads email to her and everything. Alas, the name of her bunny is not public, so you can't harass her by sending it incessant 'how'd you get so dumb?' messages. ;)

I'm just surprised they aren't selling the security feeds of the camera on her cell 24 hours a day, as reality TV.

[irishblessing.livejournal.com]

When the local radio said they were taking Paris back to jail my aunt said, "poor girl."

O___O

You have no idea how badly I wanted to smack her for her stupidity. (But then again, this is my aunt so it shouldn't surprise me she'd say that.)
