Double bond for "adios," probably a little excessive.
30 days in county for contempt of court as a result of childish actions in the courtroom, I'm all for it. All-in-all, I'm all for this judge

Judges get too much power & respect IMO. What, just because you wear a robe, we're supposed to treat you almost as if you were a drill instructor? Oh and what's with the whole "all rise" shit? When is that dumbass tradition going to end? Is this 17th century England or something? |

She didn't get her bail doubled for saying Adios, at least not that alone. She was contemptuous of the court the entire time, probably not a smart fucking plan when the person it is directed toward has the power available at their sole discretion to charge you with "Contempt of Court".
Little Miss Shit-for-brains just learned an important lesson about acting like a clown in a courtroom. I suspect after a few days and discussion between her lawyer and the judge about instructing a client how a courtroom works, this idiot will be invited back to apologize. At that time I also suspect the judge will re-ask his questions which will likely be answered quickly and directly, without any of that "Rick Roll" shit. Afterward the rest of her 30 days will be vacated and bail will be set at a more reasonable amount. Even if the judge doesn't take that track you can bet the next time she is in front of a court this moron will think before wasting the court's time. |

That person is on the bench not because they were voted there by subterfuge and lies, but by there own merit. That person didn't get up one day and say "I think I'll run for judge." It takes a lot of work and dedication to get to that point. The BAR isn't something to scoff at. How is showing respect to an individual and an institution that should demand your full respect a "dumbass tradition"? The court room isn't high school or Sturgis. The individual with the gavel (or the twelve people on the side of the room, depending on what you've done) has the authority to send you to jail, make you pay a fine, make you stand at an intersection with a "Only an idiot would pass a school bus" sign, or send you to death row. That judge also has the power to issue warrants to search anything you own. Being flippant to someone that has that kind of power is simply not wise.

Actually...that person was voted there by a majority of people who never knew who the hell they were voting for, but cast a vote for the "name" that most likely sounded the same as their own ethnicity. How many times in the last several elections did you KNOW who you were voting for in the judges section? I can see someone named Joseph Horowitz getting CRUSHED by Alfonzo Suarez Rodrigez in south florida, simply by name only.

I agree with you in that far too many people are oblivious. How many people vote for candidate A just because that candidate is the democratic nominee without knowing anything about?
