Overheard today on the elevator:
ATTORNEY: Yeah, they didn't put anything [any courts] on the 13th floor, you know, because the 13th floor is supposed to be bad luck.
DEFENDANT: Shit, every floor in this building is bad luck.

i had a client ask me if he could get credit for "time served" for the lines at the metal detectors and waiting for the elevators!

You people are humorless turds. Not everything is about Lykos.
What do you mean YOU people, Rage?
"Good time? I'm not having a good time!"- new inmate
Ricardo Rachell would probably agree that all floors at the HCCJC were unlucky.
What do you mean YOU people, Rage?
Sorry man, I didn't know you were black. I'll choose my words more carefully next time.
Hey Racist Judicata,
WTF exactly do you mean by the stereotype "I didn't know you were black" comment? How do you reconcile this racial slur with your earlier disingenuous criticism of a prosecutor's use of the term "Canadian" to reference black folks?
Black Ink, please refer to my September 1, 2009 5:32 PM comment.
Thanks
I didn't know you were black? Your true colors are shining through rage.
Racist Judicata,
The issue is with your post on 2 September 2009 @ 0830 hrs.
An apology is in order.
anon 4:52,
Your assumption is as unfounded as Rage's. Both of you need to learn the difference between speculation and fact.
4:52, are you really saying that only a black person can stand up against racism? Hmmm, that's a little suspect as well as illogical.
Look dumbasses, the "YOU people" is usually a response to a bigot who classifies groups of people, like black people, as "you" people. Kind of like "boy".
I was joking in response to the common retort when people are confronted with racism along those lines. Except I was talking to "you people," being Lykos supporters, not "you people" being black people.
I can assure you that every black person within ear shot would have laughed. Because people like me can talk about race, and even joke about it, honestly, openly, and in good humor. DA's who joke about convicting and excluding "canadians," and thereby depriving people of their civil liberties under color of law (OOPS, another race pun, I better go get my hood!), can do no such thing.
Save your feigned indignation, Black Ink, you POS.
On behalf of Harris County DA's, I apologize to the citizens of Harris County for all of the wrongfully prosecuted, wrongfully convicted, and those subjected to coerced plea bargins. "You people" certainly have no intention of doing so.
Gee Rage, you seem awfully agitated.

Black Ink is new to the scene but appears to have gotten Racist's goat! Keep calling it like you see it Black Ink. I have been following your posts. The best defense is a good offense and Racist appears to be on defense.
"Piece of Shit"
Aka class act!
What tortured bull Rage purveys. I won't call you a racist but certainly your behavior makes one wonder.
First you think the diversity issue raised by Murray is much ado about nothing. Then your response to someone questioning the use of you people is "I didn't know you were black." And to make matters worse you use the illogical explanation that "you people" is used in response to bigotry instead of the more common useage: by bigots.
If the shoe fits...
Stupid people do get my goat, so yes, being stupid, he certainly got me. Amazing how the racists are calling me one. It's like Republicans saying we're going to have a socialist state, when they were the ones asking citizens for their papers for years. Wait, not all citizens, just the brown ones.
8:25, no cite necessary. I've forgotten more about Shakespeare than you will ever know.
Murray posted a joke! Can't we all laugh and get along on this one?
" I apologize to the citizens of Harris County for all of the wrongfully prosecuted, wrongfully convicted, and those subjected to coerced plea bargins. "
How are those couple people doing, anyway?
Yeah, sure looks like "you people" have got Rage on the ropes now I bet he never criticizes you again.
The rules are the same for everyone; notwithstanding Racist Rage's assertions otherwise.
Now that the "holier than now" Racist Rage's "true colors" have been exposed she whines like the sissy she is. Live by the sword die by the sword....what a fucking hypocrite Ms. Rage turned out to be....and no, I'm not projecting. I submit that Racist Rage's profile photo speaks for itself: the phallic .45 is intended to compensate for her lack of fire power below the belt.
So Rage, who's the real POS? Look in the mirror asshole.
Holy Crap.
I post what I find to be a relatively humorous exchange on the elevator and it gets 23 comments of people bitching at each other.
Here are some absolutes that I have come to realize on this blog:
1. People are sitting around just waiting for Rage to piss them off.
2. Rage will gladly oblige.
3. A war will then ensue where neither Rage nor the people griping about him will concede having the last word.
4. At some point it becomes really really annoying.
In my latest post, I have attempted to write something that will not cause this to happen. We'll see if my experiment works.
I'll go back to controversy when I have a little more time on my hands.
Really Rage?
You are now the spokesman for the black community?
Your understanding of the African American community parallels that of your criminal law acumen.
Ignorance is no excuse for racism or legal malpractice.
Murray posted a joke! Can't we all laugh and get along on this one?
Now what are you saying, that cops beat black people?
2. Rage will gladly oblige.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's "the Dude abides," not "will gladly oblige."
Also, for Black Ink, she was eight years, you pederast.
Rare,
You are one angry white boy.
Get a grip and stop the hate.
Reality
"8:25, no cite necessary. I've forgotten more about Shakespeare than you will ever know."
No way, jackhole.
Rage is now spinning this to call Black Ink stupid and a racist?
WOW!!!
Bring it on Rage. Time for you to start trying criminal cases so HCDAO can get their stats up.
Rage Judicata @8:32:
Rage I learned a new term from you today: "pederast- one who practices anal intercourse, especially with a boy". This explains a lot about your tortured self image. The big gun, VMI, the false bravado, etc. it all fits. The inner turmoil must be very difficult at times.
A.S.
9:35, it's a quote from the Big Lebowski.
You should get out more.
Rage,
You should stay home more.

Okay where in the heck did that come from? The man was just making a joke. Gee no sense of humor.
A nice big glass of crown and coke might help.
