   To be fair, it’s just 90% of lawyers that give the rest a bad name…

   wow, maybe they could smuggle in the kitchen ingredients for bombs, too. Maybe we could just put all the lawyers on a cruise ship in the Mediterranean?

   A good start.

   And 90% Squid? I think a fair case could.be made that there are no problems in the US that couldn’t be easily solved after removing the lawyers from the process.

   Yeah, iron. I’m a big believer in the law firm of Colt, Smith & Wesson. People say I’m giving off a lot of negative waves, but I honestly believe that things would work a lot better if “he needed killin'” was a more widely-accepted legal defense.

   I honestly believe that things would work a lot better if pistols at dawn was legal.

   Normally, like if the rule of law meant anything anymore, I’d remind everyone why Shakespeare wrote, “First, we kill all of the lawyers.” Without law to substitute for armed combat between aggrieved parties,we are in anarchy.
   Like I said, Normally.

   RI Red, I still like Jerry Pournelle’s idea from the 80s: Wouldn’t it be better to pay lawyers not to practice law instead of paying farmers not to grow food?

   Better idea – we pay President Obama to not preside. Net result would be better. The trial bar can’t screw everyone, but BHO sure can.
