> So, yeah. I hope I don't ever have to go to court. It's like a mashup of Franz Kafka, Lewis Carroll, and Stephen Colbert.

I highly recommend going to a courtroom and just observe a trial.

The level of dishonesty, stupidity and incompetence is tremendous.

At the jurisdiction where I did that trials have all audio recorded. I saw the judge asking to stop the recording, basically saying out loud that the defendant was guilty because he felt it (basically he was creepy), resume the recording and then make some bullshit excuse to validate what he already had decided on a hunch.

I never had much respect for people involved with the law. I lost whatever little respect I had left that day.

I was actually recording audio (probably illegal and criminal) so at home I confirmed it just in case I was under some kind of delusion.
