The big difference
This incident in Tacoma could never happen in Portland. Down here, when the criminal court judge asks people in the courtroom to say "Go Blazers," the defendant says, "Your honor, I am a Blazer."

I agree, the Blazers can go! Please.

- a chick: let her go (she might be a Single Mother™)

Posted by: TKrueg at August 10, 2006 09:33 AMOh... I thought the part that could never happen in Portland was the bit about the judge filing the formal complaint against herself.
Yeah, it was a dumb thing to do. But I'm inclined to cut the "chick" some slack, not because she may be a Single Mother™ but because she obviously realized her mistake and signed herself up for the consequences.
