I honestly believe that the universe allows every human being the opportunity to give one person the finger 
consequence free. Needless to say, this isn’t one of them.
A guy facing assault charges gave his judge the finger (yes that finger), according to the Daily Herald.
The judge asked him to raise his right hand to be sworn into the court and the defendant responded with his middle finger. The only way this guy could be dumber is if he used his left hand.
He also cursed at the judge, so the judge threw a contempt of court charge at him and gave him six extra months in prison where middle fingers have more uses than you might think.
