CODE BROWN and a building-wide lockdown was the order of the day today- Thursday- starting around 10:15 AM and lasting for about an hour. As "Code Brown, clear people from the hallways" was repeatedly broadcast over the REGJB loudspeakers, corrections officers and bailiffs hustled people from the hallway into the courtrooms and then locked the doors.
Several lawyers reported judges being whisked off the bench and going to their chambers, leaving a courtroom of scared and confused citizens in the galley, and lawyers, PDs and ASAs commenting on the judges' absences. We note that leadership occurs when regular people do irregular things at moments of real and possible danger. Did any judge remain in court to calm everyone down? Or did they just huddle in their chambers, peaking out from below their desks? We do not know.
Of course in the wake of yesterday's tragedy, the Code Brown lockdown was met with fear and nervous silence in many courtrooms. The incessant beeping of the public address system for long periods of time didn't help calm the nerves of the people locked inside the courtroom.
We live in violent times.
But we need those guns, right?
Gotta have those guns.
Second amendment and the lord and all that.
Jesus wants us to have guns. So does the NRA and Trump.
From occupied America, where mentally ill people have easy access to firearms which allows them to murder children in their school, Fight The Power!
Not gonna roll on the judge, but she bolted from the courtroom before the full words "code brown" were out from the loudspeaker. Not a leader in a time of crisis, that's for sure. People who were locked in were laughing at how she ran. So were the defendants in custody.
ReplyDeleteSayfie sent an email saying the code brown failed.
ReplyDeleteShe did say they were meeting with Soto and Slom and MDPD and will fix the short comings. Nice to see people being proactive to prevent a real tragedy.
Rump, fav court reporter, ASA, PD to get locked in a courtroom with for a code brown?
ReplyDeleteSlom will fix it. Thank g-d he's involved. We'll all be safe now. Especially if he brings MaBel into the meeting. She'll get everyone straightened out and marching to the right tune.
ReplyDeleteI crack myself up.
Serious topic and all, but seriously, "Code Brown?" That's for poop. Or as they say in hospital settings, "a hazardous substance spill."
ReplyDeleteThe last time I had to call a Code Brown at the REGJB it was because of a 7th Floor Medianoche.
ReplyDeleteAlways fun to visit this blog written by a Jewish person who, when imitating what he thinks is stupid-people-talk, invokes the name Jesus.
ReplyDeleteThat sure makes me think he is smart and someone I should listen to about the direction America should take.
Maybe it's me. Tea instead of coffee today. But I'm sensing just the eensy tinny weeny bit of anti-Semitism.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes you think I'm a jew?
Or as Buddha said, "when you get your head out of your ass, you see and hear better."
Moron.
Rump your reference to Jesus is just as indefensible as 9:21's assumption you're a Jew. I've heard digs like that my whole life, it never surprises me. People like you who say stuff like that don't even realize it (Remember the "clings to religion" comment). It's like liberals are somehow trained to take offense at digs on Islam, but Christianity and especially Catholicism are free range to disparage. I will never understand the hypocrisy.
DeleteJust a bit. What an ass.
Delete9:21, you’re a consummate asshole that missed the point. Those fuckface bible thumpers always contort their bullshit through their religious dogma and , yes ,they drop Jesus’ name all the time .
ReplyDeleteRump why did you agree to publish this comment (10:30)? Just missed it?
DeleteWell Rump, to be fair. Your identity is pretty widely known. Folks play along, but, come on.
ReplyDeleteLuckily, according to the Herald, The Florida Gun show will still take place this weekend at the Miami Dade Fair grounds
ReplyDeleteWhere is Henry Ferro when we need him. Henry would have come out guns a blazing.
ReplyDeleteWhat about the comment violates the rules?
ReplyDeleteRump I totally agree with you because 10:30's comment is, well, true. Those fuckface bible-thumpers are just are just like those shithole koran-lovin' Muslims-- who the fuck needs em?
DeleteCueto bolted from the bench as soon as he heard the word “code”. He actually beat his bailiff to the side exit door.
ReplyDeletePeaking? Another typo. Do I win anything
