Judge rules that Texas man must choose a life sentence(With his girlfriend) to avoid 15-day jail sen

[QUOTE=JumpinJackFlash;48405288]I'll address this point since it's directed at me and it would answer the rest of it anyway.

He didn't try to justify a harsher punishment, this was the judge's attempt to throw the guy a bone. He was facing a felony assault charge dude, getting married to your girlfriend and reciting bible verses is a really fucking great alternative to five years in prison.

Sorry about that. I included that response in my post since I thought it would have been rude to disregard your post after the points you've made.

And actually, I was referring to the whole general "judge condemns person for personality" thing Simmons was talking about rather than specifically what this judge did.
