Free Paris Protest Fizzles Big Time

Paris Hilton got a very public show of support this afternoon from some deeply concerned and passionate citizens of New York -- all three of them.

The well-publicized rally in Greenwich Village -- timed to coincide with New York University's graduation ceremonies -- fell just a little bit short of expectations, with just three protesters fighting the pro-Paris fight, calling her a victim and a martyr. They also carried signs saying "Ike Was Right -- Free Paris." Uh, that's Paris ... France, not Hilton, guys.

Our man on the scene noted an "Access Hollywood" reporter joked with other media types assembled for the action, "So you got all dressed up with nowhere to go." Sounds a little like Paris in a few short weeks.

61. I agree with the three supporters. She commited a crime, but she is treated unfairly because of who she is.

45 days is not right. It should be much much less.

63. They are so right. Paris is a victim of neocons who've taken over by electing Sarkozy. He started race riots. He's going to privatize their universities like America which means students will be at the mercy of corporations who are making all of the rules and hiring the military to create war and protect corporate interests (money). They kicked out and beheaded religious thieves before and they may have to do it again really soon. They are prisoners now in their own country once again. The corporate-military-industrial complex funded majorly by the religous right has won and will soon oppress and rob the middle-class French in Paris and all over France. Paris Hilton represents America being in the same position as France. That we are captives of the corporo-miliary-industrial-religous right complex. The common people of leading nations are targets of attack because they create the wealth the neocons need to steal to enrich themselves. They take and take and don't give anything back. The French helped found America, they fought alongside George Washington and their navy held back the British so Washington could keep them out of New York.

69. As far as I am concerned - she SHOULD be sent to jail. As a victim of a drunk driver I believe that the laws should be harsher - and if your a celebrity it shouldn't matter! THE LAW IS THE LAW regardless of who you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
