Well, m'friend, I don't know how you think, but -- had some ''public official'' run this game on me -- I guarantee you on my life that he, she, or it would now be the respondent in EVERY civil action I and my attorney could concoct.

And, if said ''public official'' were also an elected official, said civil actions would be deliberately timed (with of course some PR assistance) to render him (or her, or it) utterly unelectable evermore.

Suum cuique, as they used to say in the Roman Republic.

-- Do not kill a corrupt and ambitious man, but do what is worse; learn his desires and deny him all at every turn. Let him live in his futility. Nemesis herself could not punish him so well. -- Publius Scaevola, Pontifex Maximus of Rome, 77 B.C.

Yes, I see your point.

But this isn't a perfect world, and as Rush dances on the roof of his SUV while his fans cheer, I, in a similar position, would be pleading on a nasty phone through plexiglass for my public defender not to leave me in the county lock-up for another month.

Your are a more civil man than I my friend. I'd beat the public official to within an inch of their life and leave them for dead in some backwood area.

But that's just me! lol
