A ringing cell phone landed a 17-year-old Patchogue girl facing drug charges in a jail cell this week after an angry district court judge sentenced her to 21 days for contempt.

Mariela Acevedo of 21 Hammond St. incurred the wrath of District Court Judge Salvatore Alamia on Tuesday. As she awaited her hearing, an electronic device went off in Alamia's Central Islip courtroom and he warned everyone to shut off all cell phones and pagers or face contempt charges.

"If you don't know how to shut it off, go outside and introduce it to the heel of your shoe, he said according to a transcript.

When Acevedo's phone subsequently sounded, Alamia called the teenager forward and asked, "Did you think I was playing with you?"

Ah. So your answer is, stop holding citizens to the letter of the law, and that will fix everything.

You don't get it. The government and it's agents, ie: this judge, demands I pay for criminals that are breaking the law.

If I break the law, can I charge the government? Can we make the government pay us for crimes committed? Can we demand government support crimes committed by citizens? Illegal aliens are costing American tax payers BILLIONS. The government confiscates our money to pay for these crimes and support this epic lawlessness.

Which laws can we ignore? And can we charge the government and make them support us while committing these crimes?

That is exactly what they are doing to us.

No one can deny this.

Which laws can we ignore?

None. All. Some. None of these answers, however, have any bearing on what should or shouldn't have happened IN THIS CASE. You apparently believe everything is relative, and there are no moral absolutes, since you will ONLY discuss things in relative terms. What a good little liberal you would make.

And can we charge the government and make them support us while committing these crimes?

Feel free to send them the bill. Include your home address, tracking transponder frequency, movement schedule, and a list of psychotropic medications you're currently taking.

"If you'd just lay off the drugs, you'd never have to appear before Judge Alamia. Just a suggestion."

I love it. Now anyone who doesn't agree with your theories about convicting cellphone users is a drug addict. The department of cellphone and wind passing security is looking for a few good men. Get your application in soon. Team up with Judge Alamia in the cellphone and wind passing police.

I love it. Now anyone who doesn't agree with your theories about convicting cellphone users is a drug addict.

Nope. It's just a plain statement of fact (a challenging concept for you) that Judge Alamia is a drug court judge. Lay off the drugs, and you probably won't meet him.

The department of cellphone and wind passing security is looking for a few good men. Get your application in soon.

Don't forget the Departments of Shouting, Interrupting, Refusing to Testify, Jury Duty Avoidance and Throwing Things Security, all of which have been used to charge someone with Contempt of Court, a charge you find unconstitutional. However, I believe you're lying about the "Wind Passing" department.

Should Americans be prosecuted by the government when they break the law? Are they rewarded and pandered to after breaking the law?

Can you answer those two questions? Yes or no?

If no, then why is the government forcing *us* to pay BILLIONS, of our hard earned money, for millions of these criminals that enter our country illegally?

[Joe Hadenuf]

Take your time answering #425.

[beezdotcom]

*sigh* I guess I'm going to have to answer you on a third-grade level.

Should Americans be prosecuted by the government when they break the law?

Yes, they should. Whether the law is "contempt of court", or immigration violations. Society should either agree to enforce laws, or agree to remove from the books those laws that they choose not to enforce.

Are they rewarded and pandered to after breaking the law?

Should Americans be rewarded?
No. That would be BAD.
Should non-Americans be rewarded?
No. That would be BAD.

Are Americans rewarded?
Some Americans seem to be, depending on how "disenfranchised" society thinks they are.
And that is BAD.
Many non-Americans seem to be, including a number of illegal aliens.
And that is BAD.

You would apparently "right this wrong" by pandering also to people who are found in contempt of court.
And that is BAD.

If no, then why is the government forcing *us* to pay BILLIONS, of our hard earned money, for millions of these criminals that enter our country illegally?

Because lobbyists have been successful in encourage certain parts of our government to subvert the law to ensure legal protections against breakers of certain laws.
And that is BAD.

And your solution, apparently, is to encourge the subversion of certain OTHER laws - like "contempt of court".
And that is BAD.

[houeto]

And that is BAD. And that is BAD. And that is BAD. And that is BAD.

ROTFLMAO!!!

Until we stop all illegal immigration, we are to allow punks to smack gum in court. Don't you get it?!?!

I once knew a man who argued a lot like ol' Joe, in that he would chain two disparate issues together and demand they be solved at the same time. Like "taking his medication" and "the gold-backed dollar".

Of course, it was usually in the middle of ranting and raving about the CFR, Bella Abzug, the Trilateral Comission, Henry Kissinger, the Federal Reserve, the government mind control rays, and the mentally handicapped Haitian woman that (we suspect) he kidnapped and forced to be his common-law wife.

He was a hoot.

[houeto]

He was a hoot.

and so's ol' Joe and his orange whatchamacallit. I just hope he doesn't have a stroke right here on FR.

Because lobbyists have been successful in encourage certain parts of our government to subvert the law

Oh, I see beesdotcom, it's the LOBBYIST fault that our government and those that enforce and make the laws are able to pick and choose which laws to enforce. Thanks for clearing that up.

Hehe, Oh, and thanks for the belly laugh!

[beezdotcom]

Oh, I see beesdotcom, it's the LOBBYIST fault that our government and those that enforce and make the laws are able to pick and choose which laws to enforce. Thanks for clearing that up.

Reading for comprehension is not your strong suit.

No, it's not the lobbyist's fault - you would blame a scorpion for being a scorpion? No, essentially it's your fault, and it's my fault, for our past complacency and misdirected energies.

So, it sounds like that you're on board with not allowing people to pick and choose which laws to enforce...great! I'm glad to hear that you support enforcement of both immigration laws and contempt of court laws.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA !

It couldn't have anything to do with GREED and VOTES!

You now get 10 years in jail for perjury.

Again, thanks for the belly laugh bezzy. It was fun exposing this massive hypocrisy!

[Joe Hadenuf]

essentially it's your fault

Oh Lord, you have the whole room laughing, stop it, your killing us beezy!

[beezdotcom]

It couldn't have anything to do with GREED and VOTES!

DUH. The success of lobbyists is but one example of the influence of greed and votes in politics. Why do you have this overwhelming urge to state the obvious?

[beezdotcom]

You now get 10 years in jail for perjury.

Not likely. People like you would never allow me to be sentenced.

[Joe Hadenuf]

essentially it's your fault

I'll try and do better in the future.

BWHAHAHAHHAHAH!!!!

[beezdotcom]

Oh Lord, you have the whole room laughing, stop it, your killing us beezy!

Psssst...that's not the whole room; that's just the voices inside your head. And please, ignore them whenever they say "kill".

[beezdotcom]

I'll try and do better in the future.

Doubtful.

[beezdotcom]

It was fun exposing this massive hypocrisy!

Uh, sure. Just like that stellar exposé you once did about the sky actually being blue, instead of the grass being green.
