These are from a book called Disorder in the American Courts, and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters who had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place. 

以下是從<<失控的美國法庭>> 書中節選, 這些話千真萬確是上人們在法庭上所說, 被法庭記者一字一句記錄下來並發表, 這些人們被深深的折磨著: 當這些爆笑得事發生時不得不玩命忍住笑.

(我的話: 耐心看英文更好玩, 翻譯的沒有原英文的搞笑,抱歉,這翻譯太他媽難了)
