[QUOTE="longtime, post: 169378, member: 16513"] Hey, R.White -- there are good attorneys, and there are bad attorneys. Bad attorneys chase ambulances, look for frivolous lawsuits, put their personal greed in front of the needs of others, etc. GOOD LAWYERS FIGHT TO STOP THIS CRAP -- AND GET PAID A LOT LESS, MIND YOU! SO -- R.White -- I'm calling you out. From now on, talk about "the bad" lawyers. And when you use the word "SCUM" -- in all caps -- well, remember this -- in our society, LAWYERS MAKE THE ARGUMENT -- BUT JURIES AWARD THE MONEY! Are you smart enough to know that, Mr. All Caps? Doubtful. I swear to God, I am a patient man when it comes to this sort of crap -- but you have not only made no attempt to distinguish the good from the bad, you've also gone to great lengths to be as offensive as [in]humanly possible. Can lawyers distort laws to do wrong? Yes. But this is very analagous to the question: Can clergymen distort religion to do wrong? Also yes. Laws, like religion, have helped man to find peace, solitude, and societies that would not have otherwise been possible. And laws, like religion, have been subject to manipulation by people who put their personal ambition ahead of the greater good. I always ask people who bash either to think carefully. Think about the "plus" side of the ledger. For lawyers, it means redress when wrongfully harmed. Protection of the Bill of Rights. Complex contracts that allow parties to enter into partnerships because they are individually tailored to specific needs, thoughtful pre-planning for wills, estates, children, and, in the case presented at the top of this thread, guardianship. BTW -- my favorite professor detailed his theory, that property laws, in particular, were particularly moral, because in every banana republic the first thing the new government does is throw people off their land and give it to their lackeys. In the U.S., thanks to our laws, they can only do so for extreme circumstances. And then they must compensate you. [/QUOTE]
