Is it wrong that I 100% agree with the judge? I know I shouldn't be for profiling, but at this point, I think it's inefficient to not profile.

screw 'em. The rules and dress code of a courtroom are usually prominently displayed, and at least one warning will be given. They refused to comply, so either they're morons or looking for a story. Enjoy your 10 days in the county lockup

Profiling? I don't think there's anything wrong with profiling in the first place. But this is just simply a case of rules being ignored for attention and possible litigation. Toss her ass in jail for 10 days and then check again. Rinse. Lather. Repeat.
