paris hilton

Recently, I came across as story in which a Black man was given 15 years for such a small amount of cocaine that police said  was unweighable. This story brought me to Paris Hilton’s recent arrest for .8 grams of cocaine. Most people don’t expect her to do any time. This discrepancy in sentencing is symbolic of the difference in sentencing between rich Caucasian people and poor African-Americans when it comes to drugs.

It seems that we have two separate justice systems in America, one for rich white people and another for poor African-Americans. Although Barack Obama recently signed into law a bill that reduces the sentencing disparity from 100 grams of crack cocaine equaling the same sentence of one gram of  plain cocaine to 18 grams of crack cocaine equaling one gram of plain cocaine, the difference is still dramatic.

What is just as significant as the sentencing for crack and cocaine is the enforcement of the laws. Why aren’t the police raiding the Hollywood hotspots clubs that are known for cocaine like they raid crackhouses and drug corners where poor African Americans buy and sell drugs? Despite the fact that African-Americans only make up 12% of the population and 13% of all drug users, they make up 38% percent of all people arrested for drugs and 59% of all people convicted for drugs.

If justice is blind, it must be able to smell money. Far too many drug addicts with money are able to get off with going to rehab, only to start doing drugs again, while poor people are sentenced to prison.

While the rich elite abuses prescription pills and cocaine with very little chance of getting arrested, Black neighborhoods are full of police randomly stopping and searching Black males. America’s drug laws and how they are enforced seem built on keeping poor minorities in jail, while rich Caucasians can use whatever drugs at their own discretion and can go to rehab on the off chance that they actually get caught.

Paris Hilton shouldn’t serve 15 years in jail. If anything she should be given a fine. With all the murders and robberies occurring in this country, police should not be concerned with someone who’s only crime is hurting themselves. But James V. Taylor shouldn’t serve 15 years in jail either.  America can not have two separate and unequal systems for prosecuting people for drugs. One for poor minorities who are used as fodder for America’s jails, and another for rich people who abuse drugs to their own content with little chance of being arrested. Justice is supposed to be blind and treat everyone equally.

    JAIL!!! These inconsistencies, in the law, should be further highlighted!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/RaptureMaterial/ RaptureMaterial

    There was an article that said a man got 15 years for some crack that couldnt even be weighed. Now Paris Hilton gets caught with crack cocaine and you have the ask the question “SHOULD she go to jail for 15 years???” Man come on…I feel like I am on Star Trek…”Dangit Jim, it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure this out!” This doesnt make any sense…but then again…she is a rich white girl…oh and dont let me forget dingy…and a loosey goosey…*if ya know what I mean*
    Here it states up above:
    It seems that we have two separate justice systems in America, one for rich white people and another for poor African-Americans. Although Barack Obama recently signed into law a bill that reduces the sentencing disparity from 100 grams of crack cocaine equaling the same sentence of one gram of plain cocaine to 18 grams of crack cocaine equaling one gram of plain cocaine, the difference is still dramatic.

    So I ask the question: Do your really need to ask your question again??

    Your analogy is ludacris.

    James Taylor is a MULTIPLE FELON—previously convicted serveral times of felony theft and credit card fraud. Thats why he received the harsh sentence. Comparing Taylor to Paris Hilton is like comparing a Ford Taurus to a Ferrari; not relative at all.

    You also failed to mentioned Taylor is now out of jail after serving four of the 15 year sentence.

    You are correct about one point, there are two justice systems in this country. But its not COLOR based as you suggest but rather economic status. If you have a ton of cash and can afford to hire the best lawyers then will you have a much better chance to avoid conviction. Opposite applies if you are poor— or not wealthy enough to hire the most talented attorneys.

    You also missed another point—not surprising given the yellow journalism style of writing that seems to be the norm on this site. Taylor said this regarding his conviction:

    “”As long as I steer away from crimes and drugs, I don’t have to worry about going to jail.”

    Thats the bottom line. Dont put yourself in a position to be locked up. You point out the discrepancy in convication rates among crack v cocaine users. Thats ALL the more reason blacks should avoid drugs/crime all together.

    This is a perfect example of, “The rich get richer.. and the poor get prison”.. In cases like this, Rich white people will ALWAYS get out of a crime.. verses the blacks in poverty… I want to know exactly what it is that we can do? The CJ system will be against black people for as long as we allow it to be. But at the same time, there isn’t much that we can do.. on the count of most black people are under the system and therefore can’t be apart of it to better it. This doesn’t mean that nothing can’t be done… all it means is that we as black people, need to show that we are as powerful, if not MORE powerful than those who try to destroy us.

    two separate justice systems in America, one for rich white people and another for poor African-Americans.

    Who ever wrote this u meant rich people((get away from breaking the law))
    and poor people((dont get away((lock up/lock down/jailed/prison)).

    Should Paris Hilton Serve 15 Years In Jail For Cocaine? YES ! and the sample fact is
    she a “GROWN AZZ WOMAN” not a little girl((living under her mom and dad roof)

    YES she should have even more jail time since she didn’t learn from being in it the first. 15 years minimum! I actually like watching her, but if they treat her differently then that is not fair.

    She should go to Jail. How many times have this racist B***h got away with breaking the rules and just get a slap on the wrist.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/IamMadeofChalk/ IamMadeofChalk

    According to the California law, she should serve jail time and be fined a minimum of $70 (though imo, she should fork out more since she’s gotten away with so much). Obviously, the law doesn’t apply to Paris since she’s famous for having money and spending it…. Of course she should go to jail! There’s no question here. If she is in a California court, and if this court is following the laws made by California then she goes to jail and she pays a fine. You are definitely wrong in asking “IF.” Instead, ask “FOR HOW LONG.” Because if she doesn’t go to jail, then there’s something wrong with the justice system.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SeXy38YearOld/ SeXy38YearOld

    it does’t matter what we say, its about money and if you have real money,you can seek out the justice they tell you exists.if you have an education ,you can understand the real from the pretense. if you have both, you probably will not find yourself in the system or if you do make the big time,you have the clear advantage black or white. remember bryant gumbul’s son, johnnie cochran called the police station and had him released,CALLED THE STATION and had him released.( that was huge ) he was charged with robbery and possession( cause he took back the crack from the chick he was smoking with) the robbery then was lowered to a mugging the crack (crack cocaine they called it) somehow was lost.THEN the chick remembered that he was the wrong guy,and the case was dropped,misstaken identity,and no one was ever caught or charged for it. I just wonder how much bread it costed big daddy bryant to make all that go away.its not color (unless your poor) its all about the benjamin’s baby, asked “p. diddy”

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/buickjazz/ buickjazz

    The Hilton empire is rich and influential. Paris could probably get away with murder. The thing is she’s not learning any lessons so eventually they won’t be able to shield her and she’ll either do something so offensive or just keep doing things until a judge just says, “ENOUGH!!” and locks her up for a five years. In country club prison, of course. There is a discrepancy but what’s the use complaining about it?? When it’s so easy just to stay out of trouble, a ten year old can understand the difference between right and wrong but this idiot with the crack still had to mess with it knowing he could get locked up. That’s why there’s a discrepancy. Catching blacks committing crime is like shooting fish in a barrel and these judges just love giving out hefty amounts of time and still blacks aren’t swayed or moved by the heavy jail sentences or death penalties or anything.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/beantown2010/ beantown2010

    OK, here is how I feel. The man received 15 years in jail not only because of the crack residue but because of the past felonies. Speaking from a man who lost his wife of a crack overdose and raising 4 teenage daughters on my own……crack is 10 times worse that cocaine. It is a totally different drug. It makes you do things you would never do if you were on stright cocaine. You leave your family, your children and all your dreams. my wife was a DVM who got caught up in the wrong game and i live that nightmare every day. I can see why there is a difference in penalties! You see people on cocaine dancing and eing stupid, but crack is something completely different. I hope this man, who is out on parole is keeping his life clean. I teach my daughters to do the same!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Spawn4/ Spawn4

    I agree with everyone here and I think sometime down the line (and I don’t wish death on anybody) we might find her dead becasue of a overdose, if she doesn’t take hold of her life, then its going to be tradgic.

    Ok this article is bulls**t. Let’s drop all of the race issues. It may be a different judicial system between the rich and the poor, but it’s not about color. Black rappers who have been charged for weapons get a year or less and my boy (black) gets 2 years in prison and severe parole. The whole government/judicial system is jacked up. Please leave race out of it.

    Its simple, rich people can hired better lawyers thus getting them a better deal overall
    …when your poorer you can only make do with what you got, but the law is the law so the same amount of time for the same crime should be given equally regardless pf race or economic background.

    She should considering they are making a big deal behind T.I. and Tiny being arrested recently. As far as I am concerned Paris has been in the negative limelight for a minute now. Everytime you hear something about her it is not she is always doing stupid s**t and I see that it is all over the media about T.I. and his girl being arrested and how this can set him back so if he has to go back to prison then so should she. I don’t see where smoking weed has anything to do with him going back to jail considering he did not go to jail for that in the first place but who knows how the system choose to handle things. Not unless he was tested for drugs while he was in custody. The government need to go back to the drawing board and get up off their ass and legalize weed and be done with it. If cancer patients can use it and people suffering from MS need it then come on. How many do you know or hear about has ran off the road and killed people because they were high on weed? Never…but yet they tell you not to drink and drive knowing damn well that many are going to do so. They don’t sell alcohol in many states on Sunday but you can go to a damn sports bar on Sunday and get f**ked up or buy all you want to suck up on Saturday and can still get f**ked up and kill someone if you decided to drive drunk. Not one time have you ever heard them say there is a possibility they were going to take alcohol off the shelf. What makes Paris money better than T.I. money? I am not sure how many times he may have gotten into trouble when it comes to drugs but I do know that Paris has gotten her ass into hot water a few times for it. Lock her size 13 feet ass up…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/blackbizman2008/ blackbizman2008

    There is definitely a criminal injustice system in place that targets the poor and minorities for prison slave labor. Having said that, we have to make sure we’re comparing apples to apples. not all jurisdictions are the same. Paris was caught in Las Vegas, so we have to compare the arrest and sentencing rates of those who are poor and minority in las vegas and charged with the same crime. If that comparison shows disparities, then we have proof of a racist justice system.

    OMG. Here we go again. Paris Hilton will get a pass because she is white and rich. Get a clue people. Lil Wayne, TI, and other rich BLACK celebrities have gotten away with much worse than this. OJ Simpson ring a bell? It does not always come down to race. In this case, it will be money and celebrity status. If you have money, you can hire the best lawyers. If you are famous, you will get a lighter sentence. Black white or green, this has been the case

    No. She should get the maximum punishment for her circ**stances. If that circ**stance of her instant offense is 15 years, oh well. She has been arrested on several other occassions. I know what the author of this article is saying in reference to the black man who was supposedley given a 15 year sentence for possession of a pinch of crack…. I don’t know all the issues with the case but it’s obvious there is a double standard. There always has been. On the other hand, the unexamined life is not worth living.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/mercurial64/ mercurial64

    I forgot…Aceman….I also agree with you that the double standard exists on both sides of the aisle. I am not about making excuses for people because they are black. Some people who blog here are prepared to give a black serial killer a pass based on some silly notion of victimization. On the other hand, we mustn’t be absent of seeing the obvious racial overtones in many cases concerning crime and punishment.

    The difference in sentencing is only the tip of the iceberg. Some blacks are arrested and the drug is actually planted on them. Then, the judge holds a kangaroo court and another black man is lost. There are more of these stories that you DON’T read about than what is made public. I tried to make public my own police and judicial misconduct situation by certified mailings and emailings to Obama for over 1 & 1/2 years with no response. Finally I put a video on Youtube titled ” Obama Conspiracy Letters”. It seems police, prosecutorial , and judicial misconduct is here to stay. Heck, I even emailed the NAACP about my problem but they don’t seem to give a darn about the low profile cases.

    Another dumb question….
    The rich dumb white b***h will hardly get a slap on the wrist and the criminal injustice system continues.

    Race has a lot to do with it regardless of what you think. Black celebrities will get less time than the poor urban Blacks, but White celebrities will get less time than Black celebrities or even just get away with it. The system is jacked and it doesn’t look like it’s going to be fixed anytime soon. The prison system is now becoming more and more privately owned and therefore becoming an updated form of slavery as more than 75% of the inmates are minorities.

    As far as the difference between crack and cocaine… there is little to no difference in the drug’s effects. They are both from the same chemical make-up and only the individual using the drug is going to cause the biggest difference. Crack is cheaper because it is a “watered-down” version of cocaine so if anything, cocaine should get a higher sentence as it is more potent and more expensive.

It’s not even a f.ucking question as to whether she should have her sentence “doubled” and have the key thrown away!… Read the book, “The New Jim Crow”, written by Michelle Alexander, which details the current status of a moder-day prison/slave system, of which Black men and Black women are a majority and victims of exploited, abusive, uncompensated labor such as what we saw during the BP/Halliburton/TransOcean oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. This beotch has gotten away with so much as far as breaking the law, just because she’s white, rich and female. All this is going on while Black families are being broken and suffering the aftermath of outright murders of our Brothers and Sisters by pigs, abusing the law under the code of abusive authority.

Me and my wife attend alot of outdoor jazz festivals we notice how lose the rule & regs are. You can drink alchol bring food no metal detectors, but at an outdoor black event no alchol consumpton or you can buy it at the event. You can’t bring food they wont even let you bring a lawn chair they want you to rent one at the event. The point I’m making is everything is diff for black and white it doesn’t matter so much bout money.

    No she should’t do time at all, because illegal substance should’t be a harsh crime. Maybe fines, but no time. She did not harm anyone but herself…………………….However, with that said, most of our prisons are filled with men (mostly black) who were caught doing the same exact thing.

    So we will see how this will play out…………….If she doesn’t get time, we know it was all about her race (white girl) and status (filty rich) in society.

    The only thing I find more appalling and replete with contradiction is the writers whimsical thinking, that those empowered and supported by racism/discrimination, would ever care about those affected by the laws their friends, family,associates, and fellow satanist benefit from. The majority of our society(Caucasians) have no true sense of conscience, fairness or compassion. How else could their voices of dissent be so minimal. These disparities only expedite the coming of the end. C’mon they profess God but deliver felonious renderings and depictions of Him. They espouse Democracy and steal elections, trumpet Liberty while oppressing it with patriot acts and homeland security. satan is lying,stealing, and seeking whom he may devour and has found a willing and open vessel in the Caucasoids of this Earthly plain.

    The justice system in it’s current form is just an upgraded form of minority slavery without the chains. White people commit far more crimes than you can imagine than all the minorities in the US combined. The minorities are convicted of crimes at a far higher rate, due to lack of financial resources among other factors such as public defenders advising guilty pleas from innocent people promising release or a light sentence but not explaining that they will be forever labeled a criminal. Poor people with criminal records can not get good jobs if any . This is part of the plan because oppressed people tend to re offend. They use prisoners for free labor all the time is this not slavery? Who do you think the majority wants to use in this capacity? That’s right minorities. Somehow White people can get employment and make a good living after even multiple felony convictions, and if already wealthy they don’t give a f**k about a job anyway. They label white collar crimes as such because usually white people with money commit them, they go to cushy federal pens and they are not treated as slaves. Minorities keep your noses clean because Uncle Sam does want you. Paris Hilton, F**k Her Ugly Ass. No matter how much time they give her she will be just fine and will make more money off the book deal she gets upon release.

    Paris comes from wealth, her family owns a major franchise of hotels so y’all already know she’s in the clear and will definitely not do 15 years- hell she probably won’t even do 1 month. Yes it’s sad, yes it’s racist, and yes it’s ignorance at best, but AmeriKKKa was built to protect caucasians and punish Afrikans. This is why it’s best to not mess with drugs period, don’t give the system a reason to lock your black azz up. And yes, there are dirty cops that will plant drugs on your black azz, but lets just pray it doesn’t happen to us.

    This is truely America. I mean where else can white people get caught with that amount of drugs, coke, meth, pills… whateva and get off “SCOTT FREE”. Ok , maybe a public apology a few weeks behind bars due to “over-crowding”, rehab and a fine. I read an article not too long ago about two white guys working for the city. (Board of Public Utilities). These guys scammed and embezzled or $2million. The were indicted,had to pay a fine, and serve no more than a year( if that long). For cooperation with the officials. Now you let a black person steal $500 his ass on the way to prison. Get caught with a $20 piece of crack, you bout to do about 20-life. No bulls**t or excuses. The don’t care if somebody dropped it in or car, purse, or what have you. If it’s in your possesion at the time of arrest, you get charged with it. I think we need to start holding these people accountable for their actions. Black celebs get caught up for any reason, they make an example out of them: Ron Isley, Wesley snipes, T.I. Lil Wayne, all had to go to prision for 1-3yrs. But they got money, and celeb status. So they get a lesser sentence than a regular guy from the block charged with the same s**t. I think Paris should go to Federal Prison for 15yrs. just as any other person. Now let it be a black celeb, caught with the same amount its over for him.

    I think we should get Dave Chappelle on the case. He had it pegged when he did the skit about the two different justice system – one for us’on and one for them . This just proves that money and pale skin can buy you anything, including beating a murder wrap – dymn shame

    -Send her a s s to jail….

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Tried-N-True/ Tried-N-True

    If they can send Black athletes to jail: why not her? Shoot yourself in the thigh and you’re a Black football player, go straight to jail. Fight dogs—go straight to jail—lie about using steroids while breaking the all time home run record, go to jail, try to get your trophies and other memorabilia back—go to jail for life—–and on and on and on. Be an everyday Black person—-go to jail and forget about seeing the streets ever again. F u c k her trashy a ss—sent her to jail——along with Lohan and the rest of the spoiled & entitled WT—-
    Oh and Lawrence Taylor was lucky—for some reason they liked him…..

    Yes, jail her ass along with Lohan.

    Yes, she should go to prison for the same amount of time anyone else would get for the same amount & charge, with the same stipulations placed for parole. Sooner or later, when they are brought to REALITY these Privileged/Ignorant/Arrogant/Idiots will see for themselves they are NO more special than the average every day person. It won’t matter, either way because if she goes to jail prison she’d be sent to one that was set up like a weekend get-away spot for the privileged, {complete with personal chef, butler,housekeeping,cable,bi-screen tv-in room {yes I said room not cell} , ALL of the usual comforts an inmate of her caliber is afforded!

    She should go. Although she thinks she is, she’s no better than a nyone else.

    I am glad your article talked about the disparity with drugs and money. Do i think this country has a problem with color? yes. But it really has more to do with the color of green than anything else. If you can pay you can play. If you can’t pay you don’t get a “get out of jail free card”.
