I believe thats a public defender, and I think thats voluntary.

it is a public defender (aka legal representation), and what's voluntary, the assignment?

Not everyone has to be a public defender. I dont know, maybe theres a sign-up list for it or something.

Junebug · 06-12-2006, 08:28 PM

of course not. all i said was that people (even rapists and child molesters) had a right to legal representation.

isn't boner a public defender? or no? i can never keep up.

Right, too bad those arguments are like...evil and stuff.

I will take this thread as Netphoria's certification that I am fit to practice law. I think being called "evil" just sealed the deal.

ravenguy2000 · 06-12-2006, 09:09 PM

I called your arguments evil you fucking piece of shit.

I know it would never work, but to me the "free will does not exist" defense irrefutably absolves muderers and rapists of any moral culpability.

If you think about it... approximately HALF of all lawyers are defending criminals... give or take the few cases of wrongly accused, etc.

But this doesn't also mean that half of every lawyer's clients are criminals...
