The Drama, The Hype, The Gossip

Paris Hilton is stupid. Fact. Paris Hilton will do anything for attention. Fact. Paris Hilton saw G-d in her jail cell and apparently the Almighty One sent her there to teach her a lesson. Fiction. Unless the G-d was seriously bored and wanted to play a joke on the world's current talking point, there is no reason for Him to speak to her.

Let's look at this from a historical perspective, by creating a short list of people that G-d has spoken to in the past:
Abraham
Joshua
Moses
Isaac

Notice a pattern? These people believed. They didn't release sex tapes because they thought it was cool, they didn't get drunk and break the terms of their driving probation, but most of all, they didn't have a good old sob when shit didn't go their way to get people to feel sorry for them. If we had to create a list of people that G-d wouldn't talk to, then Paris Hilton would be in the Top 3. Joining her would be Saddam Hussein and Mel Gibson.


I'm confused at what all the fuss is about? Oh no! A celebrity doing something stupid! How shocking! It's not like they're human or anything!

I will give it to Paris though, she used her celebrity status nicely to get herself out of prison. Not that we didn't see it coming. If Paris cries, then she expects everybody to cry with her. There was a poll on one of Australia's news channels as to whether or not Paris should have been let out of prison. 83% of people said that she shouldn't be let out. What were the other 17% thinking? Prison is not meant to be a happy place!!!!!!! You are not supposed to enjoy prison! If you endanger people's lives by driving drunk when your license has already been suspended then you have to expect that you are going to be put behind bars for at least a week. Am I being too harsh? Sorry. I guess I just had the impression that our society was based on sets of rules that supposedly helped it run smoothly. While some of the rules are questionable, and some of them aren't strictly enforced, basic rules like not being allowed to handle a 1 tonne moving piece of metal travelling at 60 miles per hour on a public road with hundreds of lives at stake seems like one that should be strictly monitored.

Lets review the obvious points of the case:
Points against Paris:
She's annoying
She's dumb
She committed a crime that deserved punishment

Points for Paris:
She saw G-d
Attempt to use money and being a "celebrity" to get her out of prison

Sorry G-d, but not even you can swing things into her favor.
