Author Topic: Want to help keep Paris Hilton out of jail? Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-09-2007 11:39 AM                        This is from today's IMDB.com news. I swear I did not alter the amazingly ridiculous petition quote in any way. So let's see...she got a break once because she's a wealthy person, and then she "mistakenly" decided the rules don't apply to her and broke them, and now she wants another break? Hilton Urges Fans To Help Keep Her Out of Jail Paris Hilton is calling on her fans to help her stay out of jail - by endorsing an online petition they can sign. The desperate socialite, who was sentenced to serve 45 days in jail last week after violating terms of her 2006 drunk-driving arrest, has teamed up with a pal called Joshua to urge fans to help her. In a post on her MySpace blog, Hilton, who is also asking California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to pardon her, writes, "My friend Joshua started this petition. Please help and sign it. I love you all!" The petition, which is addressed to Schwarzenegger, claims "the American public who support Paris are shocked, dismayed and appalled by how Paris has been the person to be used as an example that drunk driving is wrong. She provides hope for young people all over the US and the world. She provides beauty and excitement to (most of) our otherwise mundane lives. If the late former President Gerald Ford could find it in his heart to pardon the late former President Richard Nixon after his mistake(s), we undeniably support Paris Hilton being pardoned for her honest mistake as well." Hilton is due to start serving time by June 5 if her appeal fails, after being sentenced at a hearing at Los Angeles Superior Court on Friday.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-09-2007 12:04 PM                     I think she needs time in the tank... more than 45 days... to help her put life into perspective ! She should be served nothing but hot dogs and beans!

Agree - if "Arnie" pardons her, California will be having a new governor in the next election no matter who's on the ballot. Not going to go through another Nixon/Ford thingey.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 05-09-2007 12:35 PM                     My roommate suggested that someone should do a reality show about Paris and her jailtime.  |  IP: Logged Bill Gabel Film God Posts: 3873 From: Technicolor / Postworks NY, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 05-09-2007 12:40 PM                     Maybe they could make a package deal with Paris and Nicole going to jail together for the next season of the "Simple Life: at the Hilton Greybar Hotel". LOL Should she go to jail, Yes  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-09-2007 12:51 PM                        quote: Monte L Fullmer Not going to go through another Nixon/Ford thingey Well, not to take this down the political road -- Ford's pardon of Nixon has been acknowledged by most people as a wise move in retrospect, but if Arnold even gets involved in this thing, he's showing very bad judgement as a governator, I mean governor.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan."

(or is it her grandmother?) Why can't Paris?? Of course, Zsa Zsa has class. Maybe that makes the difference...  |  IP: Logged Michael Gonzalez Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 790 From: Grand Island , NE USA Registered: Sep 2000 posted 05-09-2007 02:48 PM                     I am too lazy to look but there has to be somewhere out there with a petition to keep her IN jail. I know I would sign that one. Hell I think Arnold would actually score points by not only not pardoning her but going the opposite direction and making a public statement detailing the dangers of Driving Under The Infulence and that she is lucky that she was stopped by the police as oppose to getting herself (or worse someone else) killed. What is 45 days in jail as opposed to the rest of her life?  |  IP: Logged Paul Konen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 981 From: Frisco, TX.

The funny thing (to me anyway) was that I wasnt expecting an actual serious petition. I was thinking something more along the lines of a humorous petition to send her to San Quinton or give her the death penalty or force her to watch "House of Wax" something along those lines.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 05-09-2007 06:18 PM                       quote: Mike Blakesley Paris Hilton is calling on her fans to help her stay out of jail I'm reminded of the line in Liar, Liar, when Jim Carrey is handed a phone call from one of his clients, who's just gotten arrested (again) for a felony. The caller requests his legal advice. Carrey shouts into the phone: "STOP BREAKING THE LAW, ASSHOLE!" Probably the best line in the movie.  |  IP: Logged Cameron Glendinning Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 845 From: West Ryde, Sydney, NSW Australia Registered: Dec 2005 posted 05-09-2007 09:09 PM                     I look forward to the jail made videos, Caged Heat Bi Hilton!  |  IP: Logged Wayne Keyser Master Film Handler Posts: 272 From: Arlington, Virginia, USA Registered: May 2004 posted 05-09-2007 09:18 PM                     How many languages do I need to count the sins involved in this whole process? let's see... hubris ... schadenfreude ...  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 05-10-2007 02:15 AM                        As Edward G.
