To argue for self-representation based on a distrust of Americans is logically inconsistent, since the Judge and Jury are all Americans. If Americans are not trustworthy, what does it matter who the lawyer is?

Thus, it would make for a far more persuasive argument to contend that lawyers are not trustworthy.

Who would argue otherwise...???
