I don't think what the judge wanted to say was wrong. I certainly understand the pain that a person has when he sees members of his own ethnic group screwing up, and I surely don't blame him from wanting to set them straight. The only thing that strikes me as "off" about this is that he did it in a public courtroom. It's not the world's worst offense, but judges aren't supposed to use taxpayer facilities in a manner not open to the whole public. I'd cut the guy slack on this one, there was nothing vicious about what he was doing, and nothing even racist. But someone should tell him that it shouldn't become a habit.
