Goddamn that Paris!

I'm glad she's back in jail!!! Hopefully that'll mean the (temporary) end of those bloody low-flying helicopters over my house!!!

And judging by this press release (which I have copied below) other West Hollywood residents feel the same way about the unnecessary press this spoilt cow is getting!

Dear Neighbors:

I have received an enormous number of calls and e-mails today about the helicopters hovering over the City. As you may know, Paris Hilton lives in Los Angeles, just off the Sunset Strip and immediately adjacent to West Hollywood. Given the publicity and controversy surrounding her recent incarceration and re-assignment to house arrest, the media has converged on our community, including a flock of helicopters.

Like many of you, I too was woken this morning about 5:30 AM by helicopters. However, I want to let you know that the City of West Hollywood and the Sheriff's Department, as well as the City of Los Angeles and their Police Department, have no authority or jurisdiction over airspace and helicopters hovering overhead. Aircraft remain under the exclusive control of the federal government and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

West Hollywood and hundreds of other cities have protested the serious impacts of hovering helicopters, particularly news and paparazzi helicopters, for many years to no avail.

While we shall again register our objections to our federal representatives and ask for more local regulatory authority, I also want to offer some suggestions for you. If you feel strongly that helicopters hovering over densely populated residential neighborhoods is a problem that needs fixing, please contact West Hollywood's federal representatives and the FAA:

U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer
U. S. Senator Dianne Feinstein
U. S Representative Henry Waxman

You can also call the "Assignment Desk" at local television stations and register your complaints about their news helicopters and their negative impact on the community.

I regret that I cannot do more as a member of the City Council to help relieve our neighborhoods of this problem, but I am certain that our representatives and the news stations would be pleased to know your views on the subject.

Best regards,
JEFFREY PRANG
Mayor Pro Tempore

I hadn't seen this yet. Thanks for posting it!---I'm definitely registering complaints. This morning was outrageous.

Perhaps Paris can pay for the removal of the bags under my eyes due to lack of sleep I've been getting since she has been visiting In-N-Out Prison.
