The rational thing for the judge to do would be to remove a disruptive citizen from the court room.

First he could have ordered her out, then he could have had the bailiff escort her out.

Instead, he decided to throw her in jail at tax payer expense without trial for something that didn’t even disrupt the court room proceedings.

I’m not sure you know what tyrannical is. You would not take a judge’s orders seriously is she had no authority- allowing people to use obscenities and disrespect the court process. The fact is the judge is elected to be an authority for our society. This is a pretty single-perspective article, obviously, but imagine if our courtrooms allowed “shout outs”, disruptions, and obscenities. This lady’s behavior is very atypical of most people in court rooms and, perhaps, suggests a more serious personal problem -She probably needs to get psycological counseling for her oppositional defiance disorder- but that is not the court’s concern. The courts concern is being able to address court business in a quick, fair, and professional manner. I’m sure the lady still has not gotten the message but maybe she will avoid the court room in the future.

ahh yes and bad manners should be illegal, let’s round up everybody who has bad manners and make them work 8 hours a day printing license plates and other menial tasks for $1.50 /day + 3 squares and a cell to live in with a sink, metal bunk and toilet, plus you get to share your space. You nazi. I hope you are arrested next for something stupid so you learn your lesson.

ugh dimwit alert! If he had a problem with her horrible words, then he could have merely had her removed from the courtroom. These actions are the actions of a tyrannical police state, I am free to have no respect for the legal system because it has earned none. It lets the rich do what they want and it’s only there for cheap labour (in terms of criminal law) and in terms of civil law the way it resolves disputes is to make the lawyers the only winner, both parties attending are victimized by an unreasonably bureaucratic process. I have respect for the court like I do for the kangaroo court, because clearly in this judgement I got proof positive that is exactly what they are. Respect is earned, not automatically given, and the law has not proven itself terribly honourable recently — HONOUR IS WHAT THE LEGAL SYSTEM WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BASED OFF OF. The idea that if one remains in honour at the court that the court cannot take advantage of them is a tennant used by the elites to make sure they get an easy time while the surfs get the short end of the stick. The courts are there just to re-inforce a system that takes advantage of people, sometimes they get it right, but most of the time not. They love doling out stiff sentences for victimless crimes nowadays.

The original muttered comment did not disturb nor interrupt court proceedings. It looked like it was the Judge who created the disturbance with his unnecessary outbreak.

The Judge threw the temper tantrum of a 6 year old. How is it in this persons job description to make reasonable and non-emotional judgments?

It seems stupid because it is. A grown woman unable to control herself for a few minutes. We shouldnt have to pay but we shouldnt have to pay for people’s food, shelter, etc either. Our entire legal system is based on respect.

The vicious cycle continues. Now the cops will have to go write tickets to make up for the currency spent putting big mouth behind bars. I suppose china may buy some of the states bonds if they still do that.
