Superior Court Judge Allen Baddour struck another attack on civility in North Carolina. Judge Baddour’s new ruling, if upheld, now forces decent, loving, and law-abiding people to accept "indecent or profane language” as the norm. Furthermore, decent, loving, and law-abiding persons may be unable to effectively prosecute and convict the “dirty-mouth” offender(s). Can you imagine what Judge Baddour’s ruling will lead to in our public schools? What are our public school teachers now going to be forced to listen to? If Judge Baddour’s ruling is based on “free speech”, how can the dispensing of “indecent or profane language” be stopped?
You may “bet the farm” that Judge Allen Babbour is another N.C. liberal Democrat.
From the Charlotte Observer: ‘“There is no longer any consensus, if there ever was, on what words in the modern American lexicon are 'indecent' or 'profane,” Baddour wrote. “A reasonable person cannot be certain before she acts that her language is not violative of this law, and it is therefore unconstitutionally vague.’” http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2011/01/07/1963656/judge-strikes-down-nc-ban-on-public.html
Further, based on the Charlotte Observer, ‘“Raleigh lawyer Matthew Quinn, who represented Elabanjo in her appeal, said the judge's ruling is a victory for free speech.” Elabanjo appealed her conviction with the help of the state chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which hailed Baddour's ruling.’
Members and/or supporters with Judeo-Christian values in all communities should be appalled at Judge Allen Baddour. All rational voters must stipulate that no member and/or supporter of the ACLU should be supported in any appointed or elective office.
Many Americans serve, or have served, our nation in the military to protect the American flag, our Constitution, and the freedoms within. Since SCOTUS’s 1962 decision to remove the Bible in public schools, our nation is being torn apart.
In 1907, SCOTUS upheld laws that defacing, public burning, trampling, and/or spitting on the American flag was Constitutional. In 1969 SCOTUS found that public burning of our American flag was “free speech”, contrary to my lessons taught in the U.S. Army. http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=us&vol=394&invol=576. Today, I still believe the American flag is a revered symbol of freedom around the world.
One step at a time, atheist, the ACLU, liberals on Capitol Hill and in the states’ legislatures, liberal members of the Judiciary, and others are whittling away at our nation within and our civility.
Our federal and state legislators should be focusing on promoting Constitutional freedoms and Judeo-Christian values for honest citizens. Legislators should concentrate on solving the increasing criminal activity, funding more for police officers, prosecutors, judges, jails, etc. in protecting law-abiding citizens rather than negotiating and lessening the crimes in our courts.
The referenced ruling by Superior Court Judge Allen Baddour is another reason for the N.C. General Assembly to “return’ our Judges for election candidates in our State Judiciary to run as candidates in Primaries and General Elections representing their respective political party. Allow judicial candidates of election(s) to express their personal and legal opinion(s) on the issue(s). This will provide the electorate an opportunity to determine as to how Judges are most likely to rule facing the citizens’ issues.

If you support and practice our fiscal issues, you may value worldly possessions.
If you support and value our social issues, you may love Judeo-Christian values.
If you support and practice all these values, that is all good; an insignia of “Wisdom” . - Oscar Y. Harward

Amazingly, I find myself at odds with this condemnation of Judge Baddour. There is probably no other person in the state that believes more that Baddour should be removed from the bench and I have said publicly that I will mount a substantial challenge to his re-election. However, in THIS instance, he ruled correctly. The vagueness of this law highlights the potential for abuse. Some people may think that saying "damn" is no big deal, while others think its horrible. Some think that Glenn Beck should be arrested for the things he says while others smirk and say good for you...give that black president what for. If you follow Baddour's decisions (and I have) you'll see that on the same set of facts, if that woman had been before him pro se, no cameras, no media...she would have went down. Baddour needs to go, but not for THIS decision.
