Most all of the lawyers I know have one mantra, they don’t care about serving justice they care about gaming law. In fact, they start gettting very self-important indeed when you address the issue of justice with them, immediately treating you as niave for not understanding that we are all slaves to the law and that in being so, justice will be done more often than not on average.

I find their entire premise to be an assault on liberty, as it rejects that notion that the law itself should only exist to serve justice, and that laws that do not do so are an attack on man, not a benefit.

Further, an law that requires that a group of lawyers vote on it to determine its meaning is worthless by definition.

I think you hit the jackpot. It’s only worthless to us it’s a winner for lawyers.

If the reasonable man, of common law fame, can’t understand it it shouldn’t be made into a law.
