Is it jealous and hateful to expect that an ingrateful rich snob should get the same punishment as I would, should I decide to similarly thumb my nose at the legal system?

in a word, yes.
it shows a fundamental lack of empathy.
for example,
if this was your mother
would you want her to get
the same punishment that you would ?
of course not, because you love her.
a compassionate person wishes
better for others
than they get themselves,
as in how we all want
our kids to have it better than we did.
again, because we love them.
it's mercy and empathy and compassion
that is quite obviously missing from your
attitude towards paris,
instead you say you just want her to
have it every bit as bad as you would get,
no mercy, no break.
but in my opinion
that is not how we should be
towards another human being.
loving your enemy is the goal, right ?
or at least be neutral .
but to cheer on the pigs
as they drag her off to jail
is just hard, even malicious.
you call her
an ungrateful rich snob
as if that somehow justifies
criminal confinement.
but you don't even know her,
and i daresay
if being an asshole is enough
to merit confinement
then we're all in trouble.
