Over the last month, the world has reveled in delight over the misfortune that has fallen upon Paris Hilton. Not withstanding the disgraceful angry mob mentality displayed by society at large, Paris Hilton was convicted of an offense that thousands of people are convicted for everyday, many without time spent in jail. Paris Hilton has become the political pawn while the media eats it up and force-feeds it to the public.

There has been a massive public outcry that the heiress has received special treatment and while that may be true, the numerous instances of negative “special treatment” that Paris receives are rarely highlighted. For example, a completely unreasonable sentencing allowing no leniency in where or how the term is served, a stream death threats from other inmates, or the requirement of staying in solitary confinement. Paris Hilton broke the law and she deserves to be punished, but she does not deserve to be crucified.

Lest we not forget, it is us, the public and the media that have made Paris Hilton who she is today. We are the ones following every tidbit of this saga as it unfolds and giving her name this power. The same power that the LA County officials and the Judge are using to their own means; This isn’t about Paris Hilton, this is about their careers and Paris Hilton is merely a pawn in their game.

FREE PARIS from this outrageous political and media circus - No one deserves this.
