#1 The judge suggested that part of Creswell's community service could be at a local mosque so she can learn more about Islam.

Wants her to come back with a gun?

#2 I have with some reason long sneered at the idea of "community service" for offenses. In some cases, the judge is so blase about it that they tell the defendant to go find their own community service, and get it signed off by whoever will give it.

So I came up with a dodge that I used for a respectable young woman who was arrested for a curfew violation while walking, just two blocks from her home, when her driver had car problems, though mostly because of her skin color.

The Universal Life Church will ordain anyone to be a ULC minister for free, by mail, and I knew someone who was a ULC minister. So I asked him to sign off on her "community service", for "work on behalf of his congregation", of which there was just him.

The court was so jaded about the whole process that they accepted the document for 100 hours labor, three days later. Phooey.
