Judges do not need to lecture just like people don't have to talk through a movie.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandenburg_v._Ohio
It held that government cannot punish inflammatory speech unless it is directed to inciting and likely to incite imminent lawless action.

Dressing like a zombie religious figure - protected
Dressing like a zombie religious figure with intent to incite - not automatically protected.

So the guy dresses up like zombie Mohamed. Not a crime.
Idiot flips out and goes gay kung fu turtle ninja on him. Crime

Gay kung fu turtle ninja charged with was Criminal Harassment.
The Crime he SHOULD have been charged with is Assault.

Judge decides gay kung fu turtle ninja's act did not meet the standard of the law.
Judge proceeds to call Atheist a dick.

Hilarity ensues.

I'm guessing that all involved (cop, prosecuter, judge) thought atheist and gay kung fu turtle ninja to be acting like doochebags but none really felt its was enough doochebaggery to justify giving them criminal records.

Not uncommon...unfortunately athesists and muslims are involved so interwebz has to blow up like Captain Morgan's ball's half way through his 40 days and 40 night bullshit.

*EDIT* Yup, I'm right. Judge's ruling from 28:28 and the statement that he is a Muslim at 31:28.
