Don't mouth off in Court Room 502

Judge Qiana Lillard had Donna Kosal arrested for laughing during a sentencing hearing.

And rightly so. Respect seems to becoming more scarce year after year.

I was in a courtroom many years ago and warned not to chew gum as someone got thrown out for that.

this comment reminds me of the late 60's and the clash between the young and old. now those same people are the "old" ones. and are saying the same thing that the older segment of society did when they were young. when i see the comments and attitude that people have towards millennials i cant help wonder how and why millennials should show respect. at least in the 60's the older generation fought and bled in ww2 and deserved a modicum of respect for their duty. even if those same people were willing to sacrifice their young in vietnam for no good reason. but what do the older generation today deserve respect for? things like voting for thatchers and reagans that paved the way for destroying labor and the middle class? things like an obsession for oil and wars to feed that obsession? sending kids to die in wars and those kids having no idea what greater purpose that the wars serve? i hear my baby boomer mom talk about millennials entitlement and not understanding her grandkids. and yet i feel that she shows more entitlement than those same kids because she chose to kick back and just live off her pension as soon as she could. talking about how hard she worked for that "right". meanwhile millenial kids work just as hard or harder for immensely less buying power and earnings.
