Governor Christie disagrees with Vetteman? He must be a Commie! Or a Hippie!

The coverage conflicts with the article.
Peace, or some restless shambling live-flesh-eating semblance of life, be upon him.

Not at all Shitstein Ben Zonah. Even your buddy Vetty couldn't muster up enough courage to vote for your version of events.

Yep, Marine AJ is a self-proclaimed "recovering" homosexual, Marine Vetteman and Marine Miles both cybered a dude, so that makes RobDownSouth gay.
Gotta admit, your logical fallacies lately have matched those of AJ himself.

I pretty much go with Eugene Volokh who writes for my frequently go-to legal blog. His take is here:
http://volokh.com/2012/02/24/charges-dismissed-in-pennsylvania-prosecution-for-attack-on-zombie-mohammed-atheist-parader/#respond
The audio recording of the judge's comments is here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf11F3y9LOE&feature=related
His so-called scolding is not as scathing as has been portrayed. One can make a reasonable argument that his description of how the religion of Islam is integrated with Islamic society is along the lines of merely informing the plaintiff as to why the defendant found his portrayal so offensive. It is also clear that the judge was not applying Sharia law to the case at hand.
Two problems present themselves, however. The first is that the judge did himself no favor by revealing his own Muslim faith. It is not relevant to the law he was empaneled to arbitrate. All he did was make himself appear to be (as he very well may have been) a biased rather than an objective jurist. While not technically in a position of a conflict of interest, there was no specific legal obligation to recuse himself. But if the facts of the case made it unable for him to have rendered an objective judgment, then recusement was the way he should have gone. Only he knows for certain.
But his biggest mistake was to so grossly misinterpret the framer's intent behind the First Amendment as well as describing the plaintiff as being "way outside the bounds" of his First Amendment rights. Horse shit! Last year's Supreme Court decision in the case of the Westboro Baptist Church gave us a clear picture of the bounds of inflammatory speech, and those boundaries appear somewhere just over the horizon.
I side with the arresting officer in this case who testified that the elements of the local harassment law in question had been violated. The judge, however, ruled that the case was one of one person's word against another and that the burden of proof had not been satisfied.
I think he is full of crap, but he acted within Pennsylvania law. Barely.
