IF no one is allowed to defend themselves, judges should be included. No more metal detectors or searching the people upon entering the CH. Everyone is disarmed? Right?

Agreed. No more police protection for "Judge" Lerner. Fair is fair. Let him call the police and wait while black thugs like Manning rape and murder him and his wife.

Justice Benjamin Lerner is an SOB of the lowest order. He convicts a disabled vet for defending his life, but in March he let off the hook two people who threatened witnesses with death in a double-homicide trial. (Details: Witnesses Dissatisfied With Sentences For Women Who Threatened Them". This douchebag has no place on the bench.

...Lowe managed to retrieve a small pocket knife and used it to stick Manning, who, tragically, died.

The tragedy is that Lowe was arrested, tried, and convicted. Lowe did the world a favor when he killed Manning.

The real lesson here is DON’T live in Philadelphia.

Drop the anti-semitic crap, vette6387. You sound like a Nazi or just a plain nut.

The judge sounds like a POS. So be it. The citizens should try to recall him if that is a legal option.

I lived in Phila for 4 years and back then, we had really good judges including Juanita Kidd Stout and a young DA named Arlen Spector who was tough on violent crime.

Today we get liberal shits for judges because people like you don’t know who to go about getting rid of them (without exhibiting anti-semitism or any other hate-guided “ism”).

The only solution besides a good APPEAL’S team is a change in the political landscape. It is acomin’.

The “adversarrial(TM)” system of justice has outlived any purpose it might have ever served and is in bad need of being gotten rid of, along with the job of DA; nobody should ever have any sort of a money/career incentive to simply put as many people as possible into prison. We need to adopt something more like the “inquisitorial” system used in France in which the common motive of government workers involved in justice is to determine facts.
