RESPECT!!! What can we do about arrogant people in the Judicial System?

Some people find it amusing as we have several television shows with various Judges on television presiding over various courts. The problem I find with all this is because often times people are innocent and also they are not guilty if taken to small claims court. However, the various Judges and magistrates governing the various proceedings can be arrogant, rude and down right obnoxious. There is nothing funny about being in court and the people doing the judging are there to do that. Not to sit up there and and try to be comedians or intimidating. I don't find it the least bit funny and we need to check that behavior. They are elected for a reason and this stuff is no joke how can we hold them to the appropriate standards of conduct. Mean, intimidating, bias, and outright nasty conduct should not be allowed in the American Court System. What can we do to change this as it is our responsibility. Most of us appear in traffic court at least once in our lives, if we don't there are people in our families that do. So, what do we do as the defendants and also the complainants to get this personal floor show mentality of some of the people we elected to stop. We elected them through RESPECT and in return we should demand the appropriate RESPECT ourselves. I think everyone reading this question knows exactly what I am talking about so here it is lay-ed out for your suggestions / answers. (From a respectful Army Veteran who believes in equal respect for Americans) I have also worked as a law enforcement officer and always did my best to be courteous in the performance of my duties. I currently have a few nerve conditions which are related to my past employment. Not to long ago I took someone to small claims court (not on television) and the Judge had a nasty disposition. He even stated to me do you know what I can do to you? And looked over at his bailiff who was sitting there in a suit and acted like he was going to reach in his coat and pull out a gun or something? I stated to him I am the complainant and then he proceeded on with a nasty attitude. Speaking of which not only was he rude but most of the employees in the building were rude. I never treated anyone like that when I was in law-enforcement and it is people like that who have attributed to the problems America faces today. So in efforts to try and change some of this behavior I am presenting this question to you the people.
