"In a courtroom, you do what the judge says - or face the consequences."
THAT IS SUPER, SUPER, SUPER
BASIC
REALITY TESTING!!! Sheesh.
Hopefully--and only hopefully--the judge got her attention.
My adopted sister was plenty skillful at rationalizing and justifying her actions from at least age 12. She spent the rest of her suicidally shortened life at 40 in and out of prison and on and off drugs.
It is INSANITY--and/or TERMINAL STUPIDITY to keep digging in front of a judge when one's hole is already plenty deep.
Perhaps it woould have been much MORE instructive for the judge to have turned her over his knee and swatted her behind several good whacks with a good elm switch. Or perhaps just slapping her face a good solid slap to wake her up.
A night in jail could have been the most loving wake-up call the arrogant brat will ever receive in life. At the rate she's going, she'll likely be classified sociopathic and become exceedingly familiar with jails and prisons for good cause.
I find your rants at the judge very ill placed.
Winking on the part of judges at terminally stupid rebellion is estroying our society. Glad the judge took some action. Sorry it was concurrent.
It's very interesting how when a judge such as Mr. Greer in the Terry Shiavo case makes a decision that people do not agree with, everyone is throwing flames and talking about our courts being out of control. But if a judge makes a ruling they agree with, all of the sudden they say that people have lost all respect for the law in thsi country, and that the judges are going beyond their bounds.
