Moore is an attorney, no? Can’t he advocate for his client? Didn’t John Adams, our second POTUS, defend some of the accused in the Boston Massacre?

Isn’t an accused entitled to counsel?

Media whore. There’s nothing Moore can do for the church if he isn’t licensed in Louisiana.

Shouldn't the accused retain counsel that is licensed to practice in their state?

Not so. He is an attorney, and former Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court. He stood resolute on issues that FReepers used to claim fealty to.

His legal advice is useful. He merely cannot argue in a Louisiana court. Others will carry that water.

For Roy, advocacy here is a bad look.

The congregation can hire a lawyer, of course, but I’m not sure Roy is the best choice for them, especially if he’s seeking the limelight.

Attorneys have been telling people, these orders aren’t legal.

Never claimed to be counsel. Advisor. A licensed LA attorney will argue the case.

Jackass. I know two pastors who have this crap, one near death. Church gatherings like any other are high risk venues for contagion.

And they ain’t.

I wonder if the news conference at the church will violate Gov. John Bel Edwards’ order to limit the size of public gatherings.

“””””””Attorneys have been telling people, these orders aren’t legal.””””””””””””””

Once in awhile people need to use common sense. So what if the orders aren’t legal? Do they want to pack the church in defiance and then see how many people it kills?

Also, Roy Moore is a whackjob, Jim.
