Is Justice Blind?

Typically my posts are about Caroline or family related stuff, but every now and then something just gets to me and I have to rant, so here goes.

Is anybody else outraged about the whole Paris Hilton getting out of jail thing?

I'm ashamed to be discussing this, but I've been hearing about it on The View (happily Rosie-less) and I have to chime in on this one. What is up with getting out of prison for an "undisclosed medical problem?" Is there any kind of illness that the prison infirmary can't treat? Would they let a murderer out for house arrest for the same "problem?" I doubt it. Or any other person convited of a DUI, for that matter?

Of course, I'm sure the whole "undisclosed medical problem" is a total hoax anyway. I can't imagine that anyone really thinks she has some horrible illness. I hope I don't have to eat my words... but COME ON!! Do they think we were born yesterday?

I'm so over the whole celebrity thing lately. Can't we all come together and boycott the tabloids or something? Who's with me?

Okay, I'll get off my high horse now. I hope none of you think less of me.

PS... I was just reading on a related article on abcnews.com and read this...

"According to her lawyer, Hilton was holding up in prison after her first night. But her condition deteriorated and rumors spread of her incessant crying, two psychiatric visits, lack of sleep and not eating."

Except for the two psychiatric visits, it kind of sounds like she might have a newborn. Awww, poor Paris.

Hm, either it sounds like she has a newborn or she IS a newborn. I think Hollywood is full of a bunch of 18-22 yr old infants, personally. They have no boundaries (either internally or externally), they satisfy their physical wants all the time, they cry when something's the least bit wrong. Hm, sounds like an infant to me. lol

It's a truism I know, but when I find I'm getting all knotted up [a bee in my bonnet about something] I just step aside and think 'what goes around comes around'
Have a great weekend.
