Careful With Those Lawyer Jokes....

By

I kind of enjoy lawyer jokes, but the media tried to make it sound like this was a case of egregious overlawyering. Notice at the end of the article that these guys complain they've been standing outside Long Island courthouses mocking lawyers " for years " without being arrested: "The pair said that for years they have stood outside courthouses on Long Island and mocked lawyers." Duh. You didn't expect one of those evil, assertive lawyers to get sick of it and complain at some point? As a practitioner, I didn't enjoy standing in line outside the courthouse in the freezing New England weather any more than the rest of the people - actually probably less, because most people appearing on charges seemed to bring friends and family with them to keep them company. These protestors really must not have enough to do! Get a job or something! If somebody finally decided he'd had enough, how was he supposed to know these guys were there that day fo...

Gun Shop & Gun Maker Agree to $2.5million Settlement over Snipers

By
I posted a lengthy response to a comment I received on this, and decided to republish the post... YES! News reports say that Bull's Eye Shooter Supply of Tacoma agreed to pay $2 million to survivors and families of victims of the notorious Washington, DC snipers (John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo). Gun maker Bushmaster Firearms Inc. of Windham, Maine, will pay $500,000. It apparently marks the first time a gun maker has agreed to pay such a settlement. This is real progress in the march toward having gun prices reflect their true "cost" more accurately. Up to now the social cost of murder victims was externalized onto nonusers. If the idea catches on, gun makers and shops will start insuring against the liability, and pass the cost of the premiums through to buyers; buyers will then be paying a more realistic price for the product instead of getting a susbidy from innocent bystanders.
