        Can we at least update the description of Supreme Court Justice to remove impartiality and instead say something to the effect of ‘forces their will on people less fortunate?’

            I like the term ‘lawyer-deciders’ because what do you call a bus full of lawyers at the bottom of a lake?

              A good start?

              That’s not really fair, though. A lot of lawyers are fighting the good fight, such as environmental lawyers, those of the Southern Poverty Law Center, the ACLU and various other organizations who provide pro bono representation to those who couldn’t afford a good lawyer otherwise.

                Fair sir. But these ones aren’t any different from others that also are disliked. They are just as corrupt and with more power so they’re even bigger dirt bags.

                May they be used as examples of scum for all time immortal.

                    Ah well. The bad apples use nuance to hide amongst the good ones which has been very effective. If they can’t self regulate then something must be done …. Apathy hasn’t really panned out 🧐
