And Redundancy is illegal in Megacity One!
Lots of things aren't illegal, actually. As long as it doesn't interfere with society its allowed. Technology is so advanced fatties eat themselves to death and can get resuscitated. You're even allowed to criticize the judges as long as you don't interfere or put action to words.

>You're even allowed to criticize the judges
You put waaaay too much past the judges, citizen.
Dredd generally won't give a shit. But Dredd is oft the closest thing the justice department has to a bleeding heart liberal.
>>81657606
Dredd doesn't care. Other judges can and have, on panel, sent people to the cubes for verbally critizicing how a judge went about arresting a perp in front of them.

Deepends who you pray to, wouldn't want to be involved in a banded religion like Christianity.

That's criticism of what is, essentially, a court case. Contempt of court is a crime here and now.
Criticism of the system is permitted to the point that the Judges have always had to resort to underhand tactics to quell dissent. They've retained not only the essence of contempt of court but the essence of the first amendment - just not the protections it provided for, since the entire constitution was suspended following the Atomic Wars.

Being on welfare, being rich, walking while black.
Suicide (at a properly licensed euthanasium)

Yeah, but it's not like a guy can't walk up to a modern day judge, call him a son of a mole and expect any legal trouble as in Megacity-1.
Is that where the hyphen goes? I never know where to put the damn hyphen.

If you do it during a hearing, or before or after a hearing in a way that criticizes the lawful operation of the court, you can in fact be in contempt of court and punished, with imprisonment. If you just walk up to a judge or any other lawyer and call them names at any other time, what they can do (or rather, what they can have done to you) is pretty much limited to your own options if it happened to you - usually nothing, but dependent on the context and severity of the remark. at least that's how it works in the English legal system and the systems that descend from it, like the US system (and therefore, we would assume, the Judges).>Mega-City 1

Jackie Chan - oh dang it!
This thread reminds me of one issue with a very happy civilian that got double and triple search by Judge Dredd for drugs and everything else only to find out he was just being happy. Do anybody have saved the images of that?
