That's hilarious, watch some of the trails on courtTV on youtube. The trials are are as culturally biased as you can get. And these ones are the ones we get to see. Judges are not some logical Spock! Free of influence, politics, and current group think. But people who think about their careers, public opinion and know who pays their paycheck. And these are the the competent ones. I remember judge Judy proclaiming "If it doesn't make sense, it's not true!!!", while screaming at some goy. This is pretty much the level of logic you can expect from a judge.
