A Treat for Bill

Post by IJ »

"I want to ask you which would be more important: If all the doctors in the country somehow disappeared or if all the trial lawyers in America somehow disappeared? We can live without medical care, but we cannot live without justice."

--Personal injury lawyer Gerry Spence after he was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Consumer Attorneys of California, 2008, apparently not in irony.

Oh, and the Association of Trial Lawyers is now the American Association for Justice! I want to send them a donation!

It does sound pretty silly put that way, but I do think I would rather live in a society with no medical care than no justice.

Bah, at the very least I'd be out of a job! :p
On the serious side, the Trial Lawyers Association isn't about justice.

Nice picture Bill! If I was capable of that position, why I would never leave the house!
