United Kingdom judge Patricia Lynch CQ wasn't in any mood to deal with the insults and racism of John Hennigan, who was royally dissed as she sentenced him earlier this week. Hennigan was appearing before Lynch to be sentenced for racially abusing a black mother when he not only hurled insults at the judge, but threw up the Nazi salute, according to the Daily Mail.

50-year-old Hennigan was sentenced to 18 months in prison for hurling racist language at a black mom and her two kids and evidently decided to underscore exactly how much of a jerk he is by telling the judge that she is "a bit of a cunt." Unmoved, judge Lynch responded, "You're a bit of a cunt yourself."

This was far from the end of Hennigan's tirade. The Daily Mail reported that the convicted criminal proceeded to tell Lynch to "go fuck" herself, to which Lynch replied, "You too." Clearly steamed unable to control his entitlement temper tantrum, Hennigan then pounded on the courtroom's glass dock before throwing up not one but two Nazi salutes and yelling "Sieg Heil." He then started to sing an anti-semitic song.

The Daily Mail reported Lynch was even-tempered when she responded to Hennigan's antics by saying: "We are all really impressed. Take him down." 

Hennigan was arrested in April 2015 after approaching a black mother, Tanisha Ford, while she was shopping and telling her that he prefers white children and her black children were unnatural. The racist comments directed at Ford and her children were a violation of a 2005 anti-social behaviour order Hennigan was under that forbids him from behaving in an anti-social way or using racist language.
