Having been through this, and court, too, perhaps I can provide a little history and advice.

Liberals have an extensive network of superpowered lawyers who will show up for any charge, no matter how small, with no fee for the attacking liberal. Their overall strategy is to object to any and every statement in court no matter how silly it is, and attack the victim as much as possible.

They will ask for all sorts of leeway in grilling the victim of the attack, and question all political history connected to the victim they can dig up on the internet, including here (Hi, lawyers.)

Part of their plan is to let the judge know that they are going to waste as much of the court's time as possible, and appeal, appeal, appeal as high as they can go.

I think my judge knew the moonbat attacked me (his confession was thrown out due to Miranda not being read before he talked) but basically dismissed it on reasonable doubt because we all knew Mr. Super Free Lawyer was going to take it to the limit.

The Assistant DA Prosecuter was totally flummoxed by the wacky high powered lawyer, and only got a few good ones in, even though I had warned her what to expect. She didn't subpeona any witnesses, even though she had 4-5 names! Here's some things I wish I had thought of later.

I don't know if it's possible to do this, but I wished I had my own lawyer to object in court to the moonbat lawyer's many freaky statements and lies. The prosecutor could have objected far more than she did.

If you have to testify as the victim, talk to the head DA if you can and ask him/her to take charge of the case, explaining you are going to be vicimized a second time. Don't take no for an answer.

Make copies of all videos and files that you have and keep them with you at court events to produce. Ask the DA to get you or tell you how to get a transcript of every court action so you can blog what's going on.

Don't depend on the DA's office to get your witnesses. You call them and get them to court, make a list and hand the list to the prosecutor.

Sneer and laugh at the liberal lawyer in overly dramatic tones if he does that to you. When he objects, ask the judge why it's ok for the lawyer to use sneering tones but not you. Possibly he will tell both of you to stop, and that may get the liberal lawyer to stop.

The liberal lawyer will mispronounce your name on purpose to get you mad and show the judge you provoked the attack. Don't get mad, just do the same to him if he starts doing it. If his name is Smith, call him Mr. Sith. Next time, Mr. Snit. You get the idea.

Some funny paraphrased highlights as I remember from my case:

Lawyer: So, you think my client is some sort of moonbat, is that it!?

(I tried to explain the term, I should have just said what I said to another question later. Score for the lawyer.)

Laywer: So, you think my client is a sign-hating liberal, is that correct!?

Me: Based on his actions, yes. (Score one for me)

Lawyer: You think all people who are against the war are Communists, right?

Me: No, I don't think that.

Lawyer(Pounce mode): But your sign says that!

Me: (Playing with him) No it doesn't.

Lawyer: It says...something about Communism.

Me: It reads "Say No To Communism" which refers to no particular person.

Lawyer: But you think my client is a Communist!

Me: I have no idea.

Lawyer: So why do you have that sign?

Me: Some people at the rally are Communists.

Lawyer: Aha, so you think some of the people are Communists!

Me: Yes, many people told me they were Communists.

Lawyer: They....told....you.... (changed the subject)

Now, how is all this relevant to some guy I wasn't even talking to charging out of the crowd and attacking me? It's completely irrelevent! But the judge allowed it. I'm just saying, be prepared. My case took 4-5 hours for a misdemeanor! Perhaps some real lawyers can chime in. I'm not a lawyer and this is for entertainment purposes only.
