Paris is back in jail-

Well, kinda. She is in the medical wing of the jail tonight. How quickly things can change. Just this morning while the police were at Paris's house to take her to court, delivery trucks showed up to deliver things for the party the Hilton's apparantly were planning for tonight. I think it is safe to say the party was cancelled.



On one hand, I am glad to see that she is being treated like anyone else would be and has to do her time. But on the other hand, I don't believe non-violent criminals should be jailed. Only violent people that are a threat to others should take up space in a prison. The prisons wouldn't be as over crowed, and the criminals that are a threat to others could spend their full sentences rather than be let out early due to overcrowding. Couldn't our tax dollars be better spent than on housing non-violent offenders in our jails and prisons? Alternative sentences should be used as their punishments. Like that case with the model, Naomi. She had to clean bathrooms or something
equally disgusting.



Both my sons spent some nights in jail when they were younger for DUIs. It broke my heart to see them in jail and I am sure it wasn't a pleasant experience for them either. But we all got through it, and so will the Hiltons. Reports said Paris was sobing and shaking while in court. I'd be shaking and crying, too, if I was being sent to jail. I decided early in life that being a criminal wasn't for me. Hell, I didn't handle it well when I was young and would be grounded to my room. So I knew I wouldn't like jail. That motivated me to live a crime free life.



But hasn't this Paris story and the attention it is getting just crazy? I was trying to get some real news today but all the cable news stations were fixated on the Paris saga. Just seems so bizzare that we care that much what happens to Paris. Hell, the whole world is fixated on it!



I hope Paris got some good drugs tonight in the medical ward of her jail. A couple Ambien and she can get a good night's sleep dreaming about her bed in her mansion.

Peace-
American Woman
