Is that the final say? Is an appeal likely? Can this be taken to a higher court? Please let us know. You have our support.

discarted,

This is far from over.

Good for you, Carlos. Keep fighting! You are right and you will win. If you don’t, something is seriously wrong here.

A blast from the past.

For the record, Cindy Yingst was one of my editors when I covered night cops for the San Bernardino County Sun.

Thanks for the support, Cindy. I am going to win.

You are a coward and a disingenuous at that. You didn’t have the balls to say “F U” to the judge’s face, and after putting it on the blog, you deleted it. From speaking to those present, it’s also obvious that you are embellishing the judge’s remarks and taking them out of context. Putting “to the effect that” in front of your comments doesn’t make them accurate or close to accurate. I bet things would sound differently if the transcript was available. Knowing the Judge as I do, he’d get a good laugh from all this. From your comments and reaction it’s obvious you were a jerk to the cops on the that night.

UFM,

I am getting the transcript and will post word by word the judge said.

ufm,

The difference between saying FU to a judge in court and FU to a judge on my blog is the difference between contempt of court and the First Amendment.

One is protected speech, the other isn’t.

UFM

how about you get your buddy the judge and we’ll all meet up on a public street so we can scream “F U” right in his face…and yours. how’s that sound?

he’d beat your 1st amendment ass

ufm,

Spoken like a true anti-American fascist.

The judge stands for what’s right about this country, I’m glad he went above and beyond to make an expample of these liberal pussies. We need more people like Judge Fernandez in this world.
Carlos, what I think you should do as punishment is to make a large donation to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan since they are fighting and dieing everyday so that liberal punks like yourself can “take pictures” on the streets an write liberal bologna on your blog. Or maybe require you to go to Iraq so you could take pictures of what true men are.

I said it before and I’ll say it again, your dad, if he is what you have described him in your blog, would have been thoroughly embarrased.

jorgito,

You obviously don’t know me because I would jump at the chance to photograph the Iraq War.

but would you fight for your country?
would you support those that do?
I think not, I may not know you personally, but I know your kind

jorgito,

I would fight for my country if it were a legit war.

I won’t fight to fill the pockets of the corporate elite.

What’s not legit about it? There was legit evidence that taliban ws trainining in Iraq. Not to mention we must be involved in the Middle East for our children’s sake. You are you to decide if it is a legit war? Even Hillary voted to invade Iraq. Now it’s not popular and everyone is bashing Bush because no WMD were found. You are a bandwagon jumper, selfish to say “you” don’t believe it is a legit war. Who the Fuck are you?

So now we’re through debating my arrest and now we’re going to debate the war?

That’s a topic for another blog, not this one.

The Taliban was never training in Iraq. And neither was Al-Qaeda.

These branches of Islam are much more extreme than Saddam ever was. He was a dictator, no doubt about it, but he wasn’t a religious fanatic.

I’m not a bandwagon jumper. I was against this war from the beginning. I found it odd that we were going after Saddam and Iraq when everybody was saying that it was Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan who was responsible for 9/11.

Thank you so much Carlos. This is a battle that needs to be fought. I appreciate your time, energy, effort, and love of our country that it takes to do this. Thank you for me, my family and those to come.

Do us all a favor and toss this little pussy “Whore-hey!” off the comment section. It’s bad enough I occasionally have to stumble across Fox news without having to be reminded that there are still cockroaches like this little wanna-be neocon out there to squash. So please, squash him already and be done with it. The rest of the intelligent people thank you.

Hi, you should seriously consider filing a complaint with the Judicial Commission. If what you allege is true, the judge will most likely have violated, at the least, Canon 3 of the code of Judicial Conduct. See the code here: http://www.ablelegalforms.com/canons/judicialcode.html

bravo to you and SPJ

I just wanted to say thanks for fighting. I’m not a photographer, but I have used my own camcorder to drive away bad cops who would have lied and said I attacked or threatened them when I was peacefully giving out leaflets near our local courthouse. Photography can be a huge protection for the innocent.

Impeach that Judge. They are usually elected. Rally the community. It’s the only way to make change. Judges, City Counsel, Corporate Commissions, Local Officials. They are much more important to your day to day life than any president will ever be.

[...] off by mainstream journalists, but SPJ took up my cause, donating to my legal defense fund and protesting the judge when he used my blog against me during my sentencing. The irony is that I was a card-carrying member [...]
