Kid Rock is still fuming about a court ruling banning him from serving a community service sentence entertaining U.S. troops overseas - he's now urging the judge responsible to spend time in Iraq himself.Rock - real name Robert Ritchie - was handed an 80 hour sentence following a fight in a Waffle House restaurant in Georgia in 2007.

Giving him credit for something he would otherwise love to do in front of a camera completely defeats the punitive purpose of performing community service

He requested he be able to serve the sentence performing to soldiers stationed in Iraq, but Judge Alvin T. Wong banned him, insisting, "Giving him credit for something he would otherwise love to do in front of a camera completely defeats the punitive purpose of performing community service". Rock was furious and has even posted Judge Wong's contact details online.And now he's urging the lawman to experience life in a warzone for himself.The star tells tmz, "He said it's not community service. Well I do community service all year long. I help people with autism, Aids, fallen heroes."If he wanted to punish me, he should have put me in jail, but he didn't. If he loves to practise law, why doesn't he go and practise fucking law in Iraq for a month, if he's so badass. If he wants to prove something to me.
