As this blog notes regularly, there seems to be a dearth of responsibility on offer when it comes to today’s litigious society. It appears to be more ‘I’ll get mine while the getting’s good’ than ‘I’ll do what’s responsible for my client and society as a whole.’

As we try to keep guns away from the mentally irresponsible, perhaps we should keep the levers of power (including power bought with cash) away from the irresponsible of the trial lawyers.

Is there a test to identify only responsible lawyers? If no such test is feasible, then shouldn’t power be kept from all lawyers, you know, ‘for the sake of the children?’

This “right” is clearly imagined to run in one direction. If a school is an “Afro-centric” experiment, OK; if it just happens to be mostly white, not OK. Needless to say, liberals get frustrated when the law is used against them.

I support an end to “civil rights” laws, housing laws, etc. that trammel the right of association. Surely feelings will be bruised. I would have to accept a private ban on white male attorneys with unorthodox political views. But doesn’t that go with the territories of freedom and adulthood?

Amazing what a little even-handed enforcement will do, eh? Same thing about the current ERA being pushed by some groups… Equality actually means EQUALITY??!?? GASP!
