Since you ask — I’m admitted to practice in three states. I graduated from Harvard Law School. I was a Law Review editor. I’ve been a law professor and a DOJ attorney as well as a private practitioner. I’ve taught Constitutional Law and Federal Courts in two (accredited) American law schools. I contributed to a major Federal Courts casebook.

But my credentials are beside the point. The important thing is that I know what I’m talking about and Old Deck Hand doesn’t. He’s incoherent and therefore self-refuting.

Thanks for the response. Background is one thing, humility is another completely different virtue. We have a choice to mentor those with a lesser understanding and treat them with respect, or we can beat them over the head with our knowledge or use that as a means to place ourselves above them in a position of superiority.

Which is it in your case?

Hey, I've been pretty kind to you and have indulged your self-righteous indignation in this matter - BUT - if you're going to slight me in a post to someone else, you DAMN SURE had better have the common decency to PING me to those comments.

Capisce douche-bag?
