The stark contrast between the last and first time of her appearance since her arrest clearly indicates that she realizes that no one is above the law. The mere fact that when escorted back to court she was minus any makeup and wailing like a petrified baby is indicative of a complete reversal of mentality.

She was always so smug and sure of herself before this reality check that it leads one to believe that just like a bully who has been challenged realizes that the gig is over and can never be quite as effective in bullying others again.

In the case of Hilton, this is a sobering experience that will always remain in her memory, and probably the best thing that could have happened to her to bring her down to the level she belongs.

This can be a positive experience for her in that she will be setting an example for others who think they can just push the justice system off as a nuisance as one would swat off a fly buzzing around their face.

I have to admit that if I had to look at that smirk of hers much longer before I witnessed her breakdown of sorts in the back of the sheriffs car being brought back to court, knowing that anyone else wouldn't stand a chance under the same circumstances, I probably would have had a breakdown myself as she got under my skin so badly that it couldn't have been better timing.

I don't think that those who defend this little drip realize how important it is for her to serve her time. She was driving a weapon that could have killed someone, and if allowed to continue, it surely would happen one day, and then it's too late.

People serve years for just waiving a handgun which is no different than a drunk driving a 3,000 pound vehicle. Both are weapons and both can accidentally take a life if not handled properly.

If Hilton uses this experience to help others realize that being irresponsible can land them some time in the clink, then she may be able to gain some notoriety in a positive way, and then possibly gain some respect from the mass majority instead of those few whose minds are in space somewhere as they have shown via of their protesting her incarceration.
