That doesn't give them the right to jail you indefinitely. This system lies and tells you we all have rights, but if they can just do that forever because you insulted or angered a judge, then you need to realize it is just a lie and we don't have rights. It's the same authoritarianism people fought and died to erase from the world. Judges can't be allowed to just do what they want.
By refusing to tell the truth to the court, you're basically refusing to take part in the trial. Which translates to you're refusing to take part in the justice system, yet also somehow wanting justice ... ??
The thread is talking about a dude telling a joke. It's obviously a joke. And you're defending the possibility that a judge could have someone be jailed for years over it. That in the land of the free you can be tortured on the order of a psuedo king over a joke.
No. Fuck that, and fuck you. There is nothing legitimate or defensible about that, goodbye.
They aren't jailing you indefinitely just because you angered the judge. They might give you a few days if, again, you're just being an asshole or wasting time.
I've seen a lot of "Oh, judges can't be trusted" since Trumps indictments have rolled out. I wonder why that is.
The conversation presupposes they will. Actually, that's exactly what the others were saying. Denial ain't just a river in Egypt, bro.
The legal system simply is illegitimate, and the fact that can happen is one of the Mt. Everest high pile of reasons why
the legal system fucks everyone, trumpies just don't want it to fuck their guy. It's like, welcome to the party guys lol.
