That particular trial has 'history'. When Lenny Bruce was in court over obscenity charges, the first time they played his act there was plenty of laughter, so the judge stopped the tape and told everyone they were not there to listen to it as humour, then it was played again and of course the silence destroyed Bruce. The law just can't cope with jokes, even though it often is one.

I think that's an accurate observation..the system is almost broke beyond repair.

is hugely significant illustrating, as it does, that the system is broken that it has even reached this far.
The same time and money wasting small minded Nazi mentality tried to destroy Redknapp (and me)...
If the appeal succeeds, at least we'll see that sanity can, sometimes, prevail (as it has for Harry)... but it is still indicative that the species has lost the plot.
