‘Did You Say ‘F**k Me?’ Judge Sentences Florida Teen To 30 Days In Jail For Cursing At Him

[A HERETIC I AM]

317. PERHAPS IT WOULD BEHOOVE YOU TO READ MY ORIGINAL POST AGAIN!!! (Sorry for the shouting)

( I just wanted to be heard over the din of this sub-thread)


You know...the one that started this exchange?

I did NOT say "Today's kids are all worse!" (your words)

I did NOT say "today's kids have more problems overall than those of yesteryear" (ditto)

I did NOT say "kids have no manners today" (ditto)

I did NOT say "Today's kids suck compared to my generation!" (not me)


What I said was

Some young people today have no damned respect.

Operative word? SOME

Not all.
Not most,
Not a majority.


Some.

And you're right, that has always been the case. When I was a kid, some kids had no manners.

But I said what I said because I believe it to be particularly true these days. As others have pointed out, contemporary influences have given some young people the idea that it is quite alright to speak to a Judge, in this case, anyway, as if he was one of her girlfriends in the hall at her high school.

This girl (and I was going to use the term "young lady", but she has quite a way to go before she earns that moniker) was obviously high in FUCKING COURT! She is apparently abusing Xanax. That's not the equivalent of smoking a joint. Its a bit further along than that. The drug is addictive.

Set aside for a moment that she was stoned, because I quite frankly don't give a fuck. I feel she is free to put any substance inside her own body that she chooses to, as long as it causes no harm to anyone else.

But she was dressed in an orange jumpsuit. That means she had been there a while. This isn't a DUI beef. She got popped, is in the nick and now she is in front of a judge during a procedure designed to get her the hell out of there. The Judge was trying to determine what kind of funds she had access to in order for her to either hire an attorney or pay the bond and she was treating it as if it was no big deal and that this member of the Bar was somehow her peer.

He isn't. And he proved it.

Her mannerisms from the get go were disrespectful not only to the judge, but to the entire circumstance as a whole. She might as well have held a sign over her head that said "I'm too stupid to do the right thing so just throw the book at me".

When the judge asked her how much her jewelry was worth she gave a smart-assed, typical dumbass teenager type of answer, again, speaking as if the judge was standing by her locker.

"Like Rick Ross" she says. Really? You equate the contents of your damned Minnie Mouse jewelry box to the wealth of the 20th richest rapper alive ?

She has no respect. She has no manners. She has no class. She is too fucking stupid to understand the gravity of a courtroom situation. And at 18 or whatever she is, she should have at LEAST a modicum of some of that by now.

As far as your repeated assertions on this thread that I am pushing either "teabagger" or republican talking points, that I might be a troll or engaging in "trollish" behavior, or that I am somehow, after over 9 years as a DU'er, going to be found out by the likes of you to be a secret conservative.

Let me just tell you this;

I agree with Chris Rock.
