Pippa Middleton Could Go To Jail For Gun Incident
Over the weekend, Pippa Middleton and some friends were in a car in Paris. The driver of the car pointed a gun at photographers who were following the vehicle. A witness filed a complaint with the police and if Pippa knew about the gun or was involved she would go to jail. Apparently if someone shows off a gun in public in France then everyone around that person can also go to jail although I think it has to be rare and can you imagine the French government putting the sister-in-law of the future King Of England in jail for that? Not going to happen. The driver though faces 7 years in jail if the gun is real and 2 years in jail if the gun is fake.
At least they have strict gun laws, unlike in USA where practically everyone has one and it's like the Wild West, gun-toting "Get off my land!" mentality.
ReplyDeleteWhich does not stop France from having gun violence, re: the motorcycle massacres in Toulouse last month.
DeleteHow many instances of gun violence and accidents are in both countries?
ReplyDeletePlease don't let this become a big story, I want her to go away.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'll state the obvious by saying it's not cool to point a gun at someone. Unless they're pointing one at you. And you're both standing sideways like that scene towards the end of The Matrix. That's super fucking cool.
As I understand it, instances of gun violence in France is pretty damn rare.

US: 3.98
France: 0.21
Ol' Queen Grandmarm will handle business...Pippa will be just fine.
ReplyDeleteFFS, how stupid is she? In a car with somebody holding an effing‘gun’?
ReplyDeletewhoa, that is some serious time for showing a gun in public. why are people so stupid....?
ReplyDeletehttp://fr.news.yahoo.com/pippa-middleton-arr%C3%AAt%C3%A9e-port-darme-%C3%A0-paris-153100882.html for a little French practice. Smoke em if you got em. If you'll pardon my French.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, she's being possibly tied in with "complicity in the transport of a weapon," with bad-ass sentences. If the gun is fake, the punishment will be much less. The investigation is going on now.
Oh, laws are for the little people and the unwashed masses. Even if it were Pippa who was actually waving the gun, I doubt anything would happen to her. I'm sure the authorities are thoroughly "investigating," but I won't hold my breath for charges to actually be brought.
ReplyDeleteEven in the "wild" United States it's illegal to point a gun out of a vehicle (or anywhere else in public).
ReplyDeleteI doubt they will ever find the weapon, not that Pippa was ever in any danger of being charged.
ReplyDeleteOne of my cousins has a very good friend living in London and working in high finance and knows people who are friends with Pippa and Kate. They've said that Kate is intelligent but Pippa is quite dim.
ReplyDeleteinteresting tidbit, vega.
ReplyDeleteGiven the history between England and France the idea of France arresting the sister in law of a future British king is somewhat amusing lol.
