Criticizing Lawyers, Teachers & Dating

This is the show from Monday March 12th, 2013

SUMMARY:

* Daly & Dating: Bob & co-host Doug McBurney thank Jim Daly of Focus on the Family for warning parents and kids about the dangers of the modern day dating game, and Bob points out the benefits of courtship and arranged marriages!

* CPR Denied, Family Fine With That: The story of how Lorraine Bayliss died after being denied CPR after suffering an apparent heart attack shocked the nation. But Bob & Doug read quotes from the woman’s family, the state of elderly care in america, and the truth about “Do Not Resuscitate” orders, which are all fairly shocking as well.

* Aurora Killer’s Judge Mocks Justice: The judge in the Aurora Theatre Massacre case has entered a plea of “not guilty” on behalf of the killer. Find out why that judge, Blackstone and all the other lawyers are mostly wrong when it comes to justice.

* Reason 673: We weren’t sure which was the most compelling reason; the fact that a teacher was molesting an elementary school student, or the fact that a fellow teacher believed that in light of the crime others would come to realize that “we are a great school”.

* Fat Lesbians Attract Gov’t Loot: Doug is not making up the story of a government study of why lesbians are fat.

* Definition of Legal Terms: Ambrose Bierce, an insightful political satirist who was critical of American governance, wrote definitions for legal terms such as:
bierce_young.jpg


Accomplice, n. One associated with another in a crime, having guilty knowledge and complicity, such as an attorney who defends a criminal, knowing him guilty. This view of the attorney's position in the matter has not hitherto commanded the assent of attorneys, no one having offered them a fee for assenting.

Appeal, v.t. In law, to put the dice in the box for another throw.

Lawful, adj. Compatible with the will of a judge having jurisdiction.

Lawyer, n. One skilled in circumvention of the law.

Litigation, n. A machine which you go into as a pig, and come out of as a sausage.

Precedent, n. In Law, a previous decision, rule or practice which, in the absence of a definite statute, has whatever force and authority a Judge may choose to give it, thereby greatly simplifying his task of doing as he pleases...

Rope, n. An obsolescent appliance for reminding assassins that they too are mortal. It is put about the neck and remains in place one's whole life long.

Tree, n. A tall vegetable intended by nature to serve as a penal apparatus, though through a miscarriage of justice most trees bear only a negligible fruit, or none at all. When naturally fruited, the tree is a beneficent agency of civilization and an important factor in public morals.

Trial, n. A formal inquiry designed to prove and put upon record the blameless characters of judges, advocates and jurors.

I've noticed you guys are fans of Bierce. But you even quote mine him.

Some other definitions from Bierce:

"Saint: A dead sinner revised and edited.

Pray: To ask that the laws of the universe be annulled in behalf of a single petitioner confessedly unworthy.

Evangelist, n., A bearer of good tidings, particularly (in a religious sense) such as assure us of our own salvation and the damnation of our neighbors.

Scriptures: The sacred books of our holy religion, as distinguished from the false and profane writings on which all other faiths are based.

Religion, n: A daughter of Hope and Fear, explaining to Ignorance the Nature of the Unknowable.

Christian, n.: One who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor. One who follows the teachings of Christ in so far as they are not inconsistent with a life of sin.

Faith, n. Belief without evidence in what is told by one who speaks without knowledge, of things without parallel.

"Ocean: A body of water occupying 2/3 of a world made for man -- who has no gills."

Gonna quote mine, gotta take the bad and the good.

Since when is a DNR order "fairly shocking" or, frankly, anyone else's darn business?

P.S. If Enyart actually read and understood the men whose words he cherry picks the world would be a better place.

Why is it that evolutionists believe a quote used means one is required to believe everything the source says?

Satirizing lawyers and the law, a bold choice since...never. What he didn't understand about either would fill a Constitution, Blacks', law school, courtroom, etc. :plain:

Lawyers are completely unnecessary in order for justice to be served.

If you're in trouble you might need a guy with a gun. If you're in trouble you might fear the judge. If you're not in trouble you need not fear.

Where do the lawyers come in? :idunno:

Right after you wake up from that dream you're having. :D

If you're charged you're in trouble. If your neighbor sues you you're in trouble. If you want to preserve your estate from as much damage as the government can make of it and you don't have a really good tax attorney, you're in trouble.

If you believe that innocence is a safeguard against the state's resources when it "mistakenly" believes you did it, that your explanation of your neighbor's unreasonableness can be cleared up against his lawyer's case or that your kids will get something like what's coming to them anyway, you're in trouble.

Because women cannot own guns ... or vote.

If you're in trouble you might fear the judge.

Because judges only make decisions in criminal cases ...

If you're not in trouble you need not fear.

OR if you want *fairness* you may prefer to have someone who will be looking out for your best interest.

Where do the lawyers come in? :idunno:

They defend and represent a person's interests, rights and freedom. As I said before, everyone hates lawyers ... and cops, until they need one.

If you're charged you're in trouble.
Nope. If you're guilty you're in trouble.

If your neighbor sues you you're in trouble.
Nope. If you're indebted you're in trouble.

If you want to preserve your estate from as much damage as the government can make of it and you don't have a really good tax attorney, you're in trouble.
Idiot governments are another hindrance to justice.

If you believe that innocence is a safeguard against the state's resources when it "mistakenly" believes you did it, that your explanation of your neighbor's unreasonableness can be cleared up against his lawyer's case or that your kids will get something like what's coming to them anyway, you're in trouble.
Innocence means you're not in danger of proper judgement.

That is what this discussion was about. Justice.

Because women cannot own guns ... or vote.
Or argue rationally.

Because judges only make decisions in criminal cases ...
No, they don't. :AMR:

OR if you want *fairness* you may prefer to have someone who will be looking out for your best interest.
"Your best interests" are irrelevant.
