Paris if a free woman again...

"The system" is not 100 percent consistent. Can anyone speak to this judges actions in the past? I'm sure this isn't the most strict ruling ever given in a case like this, and I'm sure it's not the most lenient either. Either way, I don't really care...she got what she deserved & it's not the judge who was out there driving under the influence & endangering lives...so lets not put the spotlight on him....some people are just unbelievable! Let's put the judge on trial!! LOL!

921: wasn't doing that,buddy! Just trying to share some thoughts. My 9yr old daughter and some kids at a school lit some leaves on fire, the older kids blamed my daughter...and the DA charged her with a Felony..Endangering the Forests, or some such nonsense. It ended up costing me 1G to make restitution for other kids damage. It was the whole DA overkill that really pissed me off.

What thread are you reading?? Certainly I have NEVER blamed the judge for Paris' behavior...she and she alone is responsible for what she does...what I and many others are saying is that this judge imposed a sentence far harsher than what Jane Sixpack would normally get, then he got into an ego-induced "pissing contest" with the sheriff using Ms Hilton as a pawn forcing him to send a marked car to bring her to court (after it was originally stated that she could attend the hearing via telephone) in handcuffs. Once there, he refused to consider any information relating to the Sheriff's decision to release her to house arrest even though it was known that there was a medical condition involved, hiding behind a legal issue when he could have easily gained access to the info BEFORE making a decision. And oh yeah, according to reports, after sending her back to jail, the judge immediately left the courtroom to attend church where he received a standing ovation! Yeah, I think the judge has questions to answer!

He should receive a standing ovation. And I didn't say that you were blaming the judge for Paris' behavior...I said you were putting HIM on trial, which you are.

Damn right I want explanations regarding what appears to be a judge pandering to public bloodlust by treating someone unfairly...I would feel the same if it was Jane Sixpack or Timm's daughter. There is no defense for "making an example" of someone! What I'm pointing out, and you refuse to make this distinction, is that it has nothing to do with Ms Hilton's behavior...she did what she did and she alone is responsible and will deal with the consequences. That doesn't give some judge the right to pander...and the fact that folks in a church view his acts as worthy of praise is rather well...interesting!

Take that judge to ANY public forum with a group of people present, and he'll get the same ovation. That's what your missing. Lemme guess, now your going to blame him for the ovation he received too??? That's awesome! At least you're consistent if nothing else. Oh yeah, then you try to turn it into a church thing...priceless stuff.

So...why do you think he got the ovation? For making an example out of a young woman? Putting a spoiled rich brat in her place? Giving her what she deserved? How very Christian...but then biblical teachings don't apply when we hate someone I guess!

Like I said, change it into a church thing...you are awesome. Again, take the judge to any public forum & he gets the same ovation. Why are you trying to change gears all the sudden? This from the same guy that posted in the Josh Hancock thread...again, priceless.

He happenned to be in a church when he got the ovation...who cares. He would have gotten the same applause that Rags got yesterday at Belmont if they had introduced him there. Do you have issues with the church by chance???? No way, that's not at all obvious. Why else would you be trying to go there? Again, there's always one in a million that wants to put the judge on trial...at least the lawyers are getting paid for it! I guess some others just love the underdog so much that they can't see the forest for the trees!

Debating with you has become pointless, I address a point (like Hancock...how many times now?) and you just go back to it. It's not the church that I have a problem with, it's folks who call themselves Christians (or Muslims or Wiccans or Jews etc) who rejoice at the misery of others. You try and make this about me...I was a Christian for 58 years, I have nothing but love for the religion. And again, how many time must I explain that I'm not putting the judge "on trial" to defend Ms Hilton...I'm saying he and he alone is responsible for HIS actions here!

[ninetoone]

This isn't about Christians or religion...and how do you know that they were "rejoicing at the misery of others"...gimme a break. If I were there (at the church, or at the mall, or wherever) I would have applauded him too, and not because I was "rejoicing at the misery of others", as you so dramatically put it. I think the guy showed some backbone considering the circumstances, and did the right and reasonable thing considering the circumstances. "Rejoicing at the misery of others..." are you serious???
