I can not believe that they cut Paris Hilton's jail sentence in half for good behavior,,, hello, she is going to jail because she violated her probation!! Was her good behavior that she did not kill someone when she was caught driving drunk? Or was it ok because she was wearing the correct shoes to match her outfit? and the drunken party princess gets a private cell,, so she does not have to mix with the regular criminals,, and she is in some ways worse than she is,, except of course she is rich,, and her mommy and daddy are rich,, so, well I guess that would show again,, money does change the laws, the rules and the punishments, no matter the crime,,Hopefully next time she is out drinking,doing drugs and driving,,, she won't kill someone, of course shewould probably only get a few weeks for that in the hotel jail.

I am writing about something that has been bothering me alot, well and it has affected my family recently and I wonder if any one may have a suggestion.. When some one has a felony on their record,,done their time for their crime,, and it was when they were stupid and young, how do they get a job. No one wants to hire a person with a felony,, no mater what it was for,,no matter what the degree it was,,and that person now has a family to support and care for but can not find a job,, well he had one delivering pizzas, but that hardly paid to keep the lights on in their house, much less the rent, and my Daughter works full time and has to pay day care and everything else, only making alittle over minimum wage, and they have 2 children, and no one will hire a felon. I just do not get, you do a crime you do the crime,, but you pay for the rest of your life, in more ways than one. I know that I am not the only one with a family member in the situation, I have a good friend who's son is in the boat, made a big mistake when he was just 18, and is a felon and can not find a job to help support his daughter. I do not know that there is anything that will ever change this but I just had to blow off steammmm, it really gets on my last nerve to see my daughter struggle so hard and go without so much, and her boyfriend try so hard and get no where. He is not the stupid did who screwed up,, and all he needs is a chance.. where do people go to get that???????
