Paris Hilton has a petition for all her fans who are “outraged by injustice” to sign. She posted the link on her MySpace page.
She’s gotten a fair amount of support, but unfortunately there are actually more signatures on the Jail Paris Hilton petition, which I encourage all of you to sign.
The petition was made on the off chance that fellow Hollywood star and California’s Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will give her a pardon and she will not have to serve time. The sentence she was given is 45 days for repeatedly violating her probation and being a useless dolt. Yeah, I added that last part.
She had a DUI charge and then multiple stops driving on a suspended license. The petition states:
The Honorable Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger
Paris Whitney Hilton is an American celebrity and socialite. She is an heiress to a share of the Hilton Hotel fortune, as well as to the real estate fortune of her father Richard Hilton. She provides hope for young people all over the U.S. and the world. She provides beauty and excitement to (most of) our otherwise mundane lives.
Hilton is notable for her leading roles on the FOX reality series The Simple Life and in the remake of the Vincent Price horror classic “House of Wax”. In addition to her work as an actress, she has achieved some recognition as a model, celebrity spokesperson, singer, and writer.
As most of America now knows, Ms. Hilton was just charged in a Los Angeles court with DUI and sentenced to 45 days in Century Regional Detention Facility in California beginning on or before June 5, 2007.
We, 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. We do not support drunk driving or DUI charges. Paris should have been sober. But she shouldn’t go to jail, either.
Bah! It’s the biggest load of crap I have ever read. Who cares that she is some socialite? She not above the law. Every case that this thing mentions about other stars getting DUI is right except they…did what the court mandated them to do.
In the end, she going to jail for being a dumb ass. Once again, please sign the Jail Paris Petition. I beg you.
As of 7:00 pm PST, the totals are:
Free Paris Hilton petition – 7,462 signatures
Jail Paris Hilton petition – 10,985 signatures
Oh, make that 10,985 + 1 so there! You can read the entire petition after the jump.
