SELECTING AN ATTORNEY: BUYER BEWARE!

Some information gleaned fron the following website please check the other links on his site:

SELECTING AN ATTORNEY: BUYER BEWARE!
Be careful who you hire as an attorney! Too many local lawyers are buddies with the local District Attorney or State’s Attorney! These lawyers will urge an innocent person to “plea down” to avoid jail time. In fact they are afraid of making waves with the courts and judges, whom are lawyers too. It might mess up their economic niche! It saves a lawyer having to really work for a living, and makes for a nice lifestyle too. I know of people paying $5000 to $20,000, just to plea down to something they never did. The next time that person is charged, investigated or arrested, they have a record which any cop can look up on the computer; in many cases right from the car computer. To a bad cop any prior police or court history means “guilt,” and you can count on jail time the next “go-round.”
Call the American Civil Liberties Union {ACLU} listed in many telephone directories. They know of real lawyers who still care about false arrest and false imprisonment. Also contact The Innocence Project at http://www.innocenceproject.org for help in getting a good attorney.
Too many lawyers are overpriced scam artists who will sell you out and cut you a “deal” before they really hear your side. Courts and lawyers today in too many cases have lost the concept of actual innocence, seeking to operate “assemblyline justice” on a utilitarian basis for their advantage. Many District Attorney’s and State’s Attorneys will also back up rogue cops over an innocent person because it is one big happy clubhouse up there. I have seen this widespread problem here in Connecticut. One arrest on your record can ruin your professional, vocational and social life forever! Once the name and story hits the papers, this ruins a person, even if finally found not guilty. Police departments and courts take away far more then is ever repaid in damages to innocent victims of judicial miscarriage. Most people never collect a dime because the system is stacked against the innocent person.
In many cases you are far better off with a more expensive lawyer from out of the county or area that will really do their job. There are a number of good lawyers out there; it is well worth taking the time to look and see. Just as your mother taught you not to take candy from strangers, don’t think the courts are fair and model the justice our founding fathers intended. The garments of lady justice are soiled with the dirt of corrupt cops, lawyers, and judges, as well as the blood of the innocent.

Simple Sunday

I was up late last night so I actually slept past 10 AM which is very unusual for me usually once the sun comes up so do I. I have to blame it on the allergy medicine as well that I took right before I went to bed @ 3:30 AM.
Today just did yard work and got the pool in shape and some other chores around the house.

Calironia State Fair

I went to the California State Fair today. I finally got to see the pig races I have always heard about. Pretty funny they also had goat races. One of the goats jumped the rail and took a shortcut across the field of the little track they had, I think the goat was cheating. All this was very cool.
The fair closed early today at 9pm when it normally shuts down at 11pm. the reason for this as some friends found when they asked security was that they felt that since black culture day had been canceled in favor of multi-culture day that people would riot!! My friends thought this was very small minded of the organizers to bend to this level of thinking, my friends were a mix, Caucasian, Asian and Hispanic. I think it’s typical from my recent court experiences and my general experiences of life.
Walking back to go home they had groups of riot police in the malls and around the fair. I even passed one group of police officers who were holed up in the fire department say let’s get out the street we are supposed to be out of site of the public. They even had some community chaplain at the main entrance what BS. Nobody actually appeared to be concerned with anyone’s well being in the real sense, what I saw was veiled posturing these people are so stilted in their perceptions and ability to think beyond their preconceived ideas.
There are some very ignorant people in life and a lot of them are educated. Knowledge is one thing but application of knowledge and wisdom seem in very short supply. Intelligence beyond the basics is the ability to think and function in the unfamiliar and figure the unfamiliar plus the application of your knowledge correctly.
Most people I found in the legal system don’t do this well. Sadly most cannot see past their nose. They have procedure and nice sounding words but this seems to occupy the mental space of logic and wisdom. The worst part is people we let them. I always hear, “well I don’t know who is right”. All you have to do is ask the simple questions this is why we are supposed to rely on facts not emotional irrational appeals. Hitler ruled because of his appeal to these irrational emotions, blind patriotism, and divisiveness, people didn’t know who to believe and he came to power. People have to understand you do not have to be a leader of a country to perform atrocities or take away peoples rights you just have to get people to think and not act because they don’t use logic of facts in front of them and “they don’t know who to believe”.
Peace!!
Oh pictures of stuffed animals from the fair:

Final Fantasy Football Draft Preparation

Tomorrow morning is the final draft of this year’s football season for me! I am in 4 leagues this year. Tomorrows draft is an online league in the Yahoo Fantasy Football Customized League I am the commissioner.
We call it the BDFL (Big Dogs Football League)! This league is heavily customized! Check out the positions and stats. With only 4 bench (BN) players and the fact that we use individual defensive players, 2 active kicker & quarterback positions with the bye weeks if you don’t make moves every week you will lose! No sitting on your roster in this league you must adjust every week!! Plus we have two optional positions one (WR/TE) you can use either a “wide receiver” or a “tight-end” the other active optional position (WR/RB) you can use for a “wide receiver” or a “running back”.
This line-up forces some tough choices during the year when several players on your roster are on a bye and you don’t have bench players to cover those positions. Either you waive them or hold on and play with empty roster spots!!

Activity Does Not Equal Accomplisment

I try to stay away from cliché’s but today’s events prompted me to remember this, I wish others would practice this. Why do people think they can snow you with a flurry of nothingness at the end! Had they did their job from the start this attempted snow job would not be necessary!

Monday Down and Out

Had my ears just totally plugged probably from a combination of swimming and allergies. Had a radiating pain coming out both ear canals! Had them give me some prescription Saturday but that made me drowsy had no affect on the condition and unable to do much Sunday. Today went back to the doctor and what they gave me finally started to kick in late> I also did not work but just rested. I didn’t even feel like reading as I normally do when feeling like this.
I think I need out of Sactown with all the allergens and plus just need to roll anyway!

Olympic Closing Ceremonies

I did some opening Olympic Ceremonies pictures and here are some from the closing ceremonies. I think the openning pictures were classic and historic, while the closing ceremony pictures pose more of a modern theme.
