First, this video was completely unnecessary. Not every viral moment warrants a response, especially this one, which was completely insane. Roy Hopkins, a transgender attorney from Oklahoma City, has spoken about this incident. It relates to an extended video showing Hopkins getting into it with a judge, and later a chaotic arrest when cited for contempt of court.

The judge was unhappy with Hopkins’ paperwork, which did not sit well, leading to a back-and-forth that was, honestly, more than entertaining. The judge disapproved of Hopkins’ attitude and demeanor, warning the attorney that she could call deputies to her courtroom at any time. After opposing counsel, who didn’t have to do much here, stated that Hopkins’ client couldn’t and wouldn’t appear personally due to reported theft charges, the meltdown began. Hopkins was removed. 

In this video, Hopkins said a leave of absence was necessary after this fiasco. As in the original video, allegations of transgender discrimination were repeated by Hopkins:
