Strawman? Just asking - who would help you in the middle of night for free. If you think the lawyer, defend it. Answering questions, taking positions and defending them is amuch better intellectual exercise. I know you are a smart guy - try debating instead of calling names.
Yes, strawman. Maybe you don't understand that, but you're doing it. You keep rolling back to the question of whose ethics should be trusted more, the doctor or the lawyer...
That's not the question at all. The question is, who should freddy trust, the doctor's attorney, or freddy's attorney. Your solution is for freddy to have no attorney at all: a position that is tremendously satisfying to you, but horribly dangerous to freddy.
