My son was raped by our Parish Priest…My Lawyer made it his mission to de-frock this rapist and put him behind bars, then go after the Vatican itself to call on all Cardinals to tell there Bishops to make sure men like this across out country never get the chance to do this again…So I Love my LAWYER for doing that…
Then,
A burglar breaks into my house and scares the shit out of my little daughter as he breaks in her window, I find him, drag him out in the living room, proceed to kick the snot out of him and he ends up breaking his leg falling down my front porch stairs. A few weeks later I get a phone call from said burglars’ Lawyer saying I am being sued for assault to his client the burglar. What the fuck I think? Could this be? I hate lawyers now.
Today, I hear an atheists’ daughter is hurt by saying Under-God in the Pledge of Allegiance. This Schmuck calls his Lawyer and he says “…hell lets sue the shit out of the school district and see how far we can get in court…it’ll be fun…” Atheist says, “Cool…lets do it…”
There’s strike two against Lawyers they are losing mass amounts of ability points in my book.
I am an American Citizen. I grew up, went to public school, said the Pledge everyday, put my hand over my heart while I did it, and knew at an early age why I was saying it… If kids don’t want to say ‘God’ because their parents are teaching them there is no God, fine, this is a gloriously free country, skip that word and don’t say it…
Seems easy enough right? But no, lets call our Lawyer honey and sue those horrible people for making our daughter say God. Lets make this country go down the shitter real quick. So when young atheist grows up she can become a vampire and continue our free speech legacy! Freedom is nice, I’d fight for it, but this is fucking bullshit.
**FUCK YOU LAWYER TRASH. AND BY THE WAY, THANK YOU FOR HELPING MY SON! **
:smack:
**incidently the first two vignettes are ficticious.
–> and this just in, Judge who upheld this verdict now ruled on his own ruling saying it is prohibited from being carried out…not 24 hours before he was pretty slam happy with that gavel…
I think he’s being sarcastic. But I’m a moron, so I could be wrong. Either way, the guy who brought Pledge of Allegiance lawsuit represented himself and had a lawyer assist him on the briefs before the Ninth Circuit. So lawyers don’t get the credit/blame (depending on your outlook) for the Pledge of Allegiance thing.
Ah, Philosopher! Thank you for pointing out the dread and never-to-be-spoken-of link between atheism, vampirism, and free speech! You have opened my eyes to the error of my ways. I will turn in my membership card from the International Order of Leech Fuckers toot suite.
And I appreciate the inclusionin your OP of such a remarkable level of incoherence and craziness. It saved me the trouble of taking you seriously.
I’m 32. This is the pit. And to critisize me for bringing up something in GQ this morning that I didn’t understand, is pure testament of your maturity level. I have read many of your posts, you seem to be level head, it makes me wonder why you’d chastize me.
Zoff I am being sarcastic.
I am not a Lawyer, I have no background in legal anything. But when I listen to senators, members of the congress, lawyers, judges and average people ask why would someone do something as idiotic as this guy in CA and have panel of judges rule on it the way they initially did. I just basiclaly scratch my head and say…come on people, WTF!!! sorry if my post was written a little hap-hazardly, I was in a rush.
I did not mean to step on anyones toes, the OP is not about vampirism Jodi, it’s about my frustration with lawyers and our judicial system taken as a whole. Jeez
Now I’m just more confused. I assumed you were being sarcastic to mock another Pit thread about lawyers and lawnmowers. But you actually are mad at attorneys. Well, I got the sarcasm, but missed the reason for it. Is that some kind of reverse whoosh? A half-whoosh? A hsoohw?
I’d suggest you read up on the decision. I would heartily suggest that you not form an opinion based on the fact that a bunch of politicians don’t like it. They are bitching to keep their jobs come November.
