If Only


it were this easy to to stop the rich and powerful getting away with murder, torture, corruption, sucking the world dry. You know who you are, you corrupt politicians and snake oil salesmen, you oil executives killing the world, you dictators keeping your peoples enslaved, you religious nutters killing for the peaceful religious life.
Paris Hilton is a mindless butterfly that is going to be broken on the judicial wheel.
Will she learn anything, not much probably, become a better person, unlikely. It's punishment pure and simple and we're enjoying it I hope for the fact that a rich person tried to twist the system and evade what society had decided what their punishment was and was caught.
Let's not kid ourselves though bigger criminals than this constantly evade, twist and manipulate the system every day. Let's see Bush, Blair, Mugabe, oooooh just off the top of my head, in the back of a police car being carted off to jail.
