Discrimination Abounds

Here:

A radio ad for a handgun training class that bars Muslims and Obama voters has sparked an investigation in Texas.

“We will attempt to teach you all the necessary information you need to obtain your [Concealed Handgun License],” the ad says. Then towards the end, it adds: “If you are a socialist liberal and/or voted for the current campaigner in chief, please do not take this class. You have already proven that you cannot make a knowledgeable and prudent decision under the law.”

And then: “If you are a non-Christian Arab or Muslim, I will not teach you the class with no shame; I am Crockett Keller, thank you, and God bless America.”

And here:

A Wisconsin attorney known as the country’s king of lemon law litigation said he will no longer represent any Republican clients because he’s disgusted with a bill working its way through the state Legislature designed to cap lawyer fees.

Vince Megna of Milwaukee said Friday that he has already turned down one potential client he had been talking with since this summer.

    As he used a double negative, this could also be read as “I will teach you the class with shame.”
    Just sayin’

    To Vince I say:  That is exactly what we need, less lawyers working.  I heard about a drive to make 2 million dollars for a surgery for a child on the radio this morning.  Want to cut the cost by at least 66%?  Have Congress approve a law that a signed non-liability agreement between Doctor and patient actually guarantees the Doctor cannot get sued.  Today a surgery with an 80% success rate merely means lawyers will talk family into suing 20% of the time.  A 98% success rate virtually guarantees 2 lawsuits out of every hundred surgeries, so a Doctor needs to make enough on the other 98 to afford the 2 mulitimillion dollar failures.

    I know, I know, a lawyer needs to make a living, right?  Can’t just make a living, have to make the killing, poh’ wittle wawyer.
