Tell a lawyer joke, go to jail

Couldn't resist this one, because I know both Carl and Harvey, and like
them.


Good for them. When an officer of the court is working, people have to be
civil and show some respect for the institution, if nothing else. Next
comes the judge jokes, and then comes plain old contempt of court.

It's like training a dog. Watch the little things, and the big things take
care of themselves.


BROKEN WINDOW THEORY

"The title of a 1982 article by criminologist James Q. Wilson and George
Kelling. This simple theory argues that a broken window left unrepaired
will make a building look uncared for or abandoned and soon attract vandals
to break all the other windows. If this is so, then prevention of crime
will be accomplished by steps like painting over graffitti, keeping
buildings in good repair, maintaining clean streets and parks and
responding effectively to petty street crime. These actions make citizens
feel safer and when they frequent public places criminal activity is less
likely to occur. Many jurisdictions in North America have adopted practices
based on this perspective."

Good grief, you can't make a lawyer joke while standing outside? Whats next, make a lawyer
joke on the phone and get arrested for that, how about bugging peoples homes so they
won't be making lawyer jokes at home?

You think you live in a "free" country don't you?

Those 2 guys are going to win big in civil court. If the state thinks they can
arrest 2 guys for talking to each other, making jokes, we are in trouble.

Actually, I sat next to Carl at a luncheon last Friday. He said it

was the
best thing that's happened to his Americans for Legal Reform in the

15 years
of its existence. In addition to the news coverage and the mention

on
O'Reilly, he was interviewed by Ausie television on Thursday.


Was that the monthly NAAC luncheon?

There seem to be so many NAACs I have no idea what you're talking

about. But
no. It was a venture capital group's annual awards luncheon for
entrepreneurs.


National Association of Ambulance Chasers.

You are a member, aren't you?
