It's an AARP inspired effort and the article is written by and for attorneys.
Clintonian absolution of truth.

Ok, so you think it's OK to make abuse of a human go through arbitration rather than a criminal court. Are you fucking serious? I know you boys can spin just about anything, but I must say, this is impressive mental gymnastics.
