Agreed - Permit me to go off on the tangent a little.

The whole nature of the legal "profession" is about compromise and deal making. Justice has nothing to do with how they "practice." The key is to bend everything to the point of breakage - many times going beyond. The courts allow their malfeasance and are complicit. Their double speak allows them to move into politics. Theirs is a grey world of no absolutes - no real sense of any clear right or wrong. Ethical or moral lines are subjective and movable; subservient to other agendas. Those of us who do have boundaries can only look at this other world and shake our heads in disgust and somewhat in disbelief of the BS in full display.

I agree. Lawyers should not be politicians.

Thank you for taking the time for such a great response. Obviously, you know the subject matter well and expound on it so eloquently. I am absolutely in agreement with you. O7

When I was younger I entertained the thought of going to law school after studying Administration of Justice. I had gotten a belly full when the realization sank in about how the whole system operated. It certainly was a defining moment in my personal awakening process. I made the decision to walk away from 3 years of education because I could not in all good conscious continue. Call me idealistic - but I actually have faith in the words of our founding documents for a true functioning Constitutional Republic. I often put lawyers, politicians, and child molesters all in the same category. They are predatory parasites. I am grateful for the education I received because my eyes were opened while still young. There have been times in my life where knowledge of the system became useful.

Sounds like we could take a few lessons from those who proceeded us. "There is nothing new except what has been forgotten." Marie Antoinette
