Talking, for a moment, about being willing to represent clients who were not firing on all six.
One of my more notorious cases had to do with strong arm robbery. Very serious charge, indeed.
All kinds of serious things go through your mind when you hear those words nowadays.
I kid you not. My client went into a pharmacy, something like a Walgreens, something like that.
He was not firing on all six. I knew it. The state knew it. God knew it.
He probably resided at an adult congregate living facility in the neighborhood, but they are usually allowed out for most of the day to roam free as a bird, messing up the lives of anyone they come into contact with.
He went into the pharmacy and took a baseball cap, put it on and walked out. That was it. That was all he wanted or needed at the time, hot Florida sun, etc.
Did he forget to pay? He may well have done so. Did he have money? Many of these folks are actually rich, but they end up in places like that with mental illness, rather than a state mental hospital. I have heard of millionaires in such circumstances.
That is what he did. There was a physical altercation outside the store.
I got a wild hair that maybe I should put this guy on the stand and ask him some questions about what he recalled happened.
I thought that somehow maybe the jury, too, might realize that this whole thing was an overblown fiasco involving a harmless old crazy man.
The whole courtroom, including the Court, but especially the state, was literally dumbfounded when, without any prior warning, at the close of the State's case, highly unexpected under these circumstances, I suddenly rose and called my client as a witness for the defense, a thing, trust me, I seldom, ever, did!
I asked him some open ended questions, and his answers were, as I had anticipated, completely off the wall this way and that, incriminating and exonerating himself and amply showing that he was completely psychotically mentally ill as well, and possibly dangerous, right there on the stand in front of the jury.
It would not at all surprise me if one or more of them were actually afraid of him at that moment.
If it had been the courthouse at the Old Bailey as seen on Rumpole, my client might have suddenly jumped into the jury box itself and wrought havoc!
It seems to me that I had that sense at the time myself, but was not worried that he would attack me, even though we sat right next to each other at counsel table.
I am certain that he had not been given medications he may have needed while in the jail, and so was even more psychotic than he otherwise might have been.
Then came closing arguments.
He was found not guilty by a jury, in about 10 minutes of deliberation.
The courthouse went into another uproar, given the circumstances.

ONE CAN ALSO THINK OF THE CLIMAX OF THE ENLIGHTENMENT AS THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE 1776
Maybe that works even better!
Friday, November 4, 2016
THE CLIMAX OF THE ENLIGHTENMENT
Palmer thought that the climax was represented both by the triumphant French Republic of 1798, and by the Republic of Terror of 1794, together.
This makes some sense. Yet I would refer to these, analytically as an aftermath, myself.
I would have placed what I consider the end of the Enlightenment as such as the eve of the French Revolution in 1789.
THE MENU
I got thrown a bunch of scallops tonight.
I don't sniff at scallops though I am slightly allergic to the little devils!
What to do with them?
I don't try to conceal their flavor, but something helps.
Leftover wild rice, but something else.
Bacon fat! This reminds me of the classic hors d'oeuvres of bacon wrapped grilled scallops!
No leftover wild rice, only some mildly Mediterranean seasoned pureed celery rabe potage. This was very good, even if I didn't make it! Gluten free tortilla! Could well have been a pita or other flatbread or sourdough roll. Or rice or pasta. I would even have dumped it on mexican black beans and payed the price!

Under these conditions, making hereditary slaves of any Muslims of either color, or of African negroes, Muslim or not, caught within the EU, makes a lot of sense, if the EU ends up rejecting Chinese and other Asian cheap labor products permanently, and rejects Hindu labor overtures as well, as they certainly should.
Enormous blunders if Europeans continue to mix with these inherent genetic religious and racial enemies now in a full migratory deluge into Europe.
If it gets much worse in Africa or the Middle East, shoot to kill at european borders all migrants, known infected or not.
Why? COVID 20 is probably already coming down the pike!

SHANGHAIED
The Shanghai lab that published the novel coronavirus genome on Jan. 11 was quickly shut down by authorities for “rectification.” Several of the doctors and journalists who reported on the spread early on have disappeared.
RUMPOLE ON CROSS TWO QUESTIONS YOU DON'T ASK THE NEXT THIRD OBVIOUS QUESTION UNLESS YOU HAVE VERY DAMAGING INFORMATION YET TO USE
Rumpole: Do you recall making statements reported here?:
'Shi and other WIV researchers have categorically denied this lab was the origin for the novel coronavirus.'
Shi: Yes.
Rumpole: Do you recall making statements reported here?:
'On Feb. 3, her team was the first to publicly report the virus known as 2019-nCoV was a bat-derived coronavirus.'
Shi: Yes.
Rumpole: No further questions.
The implications, so far, are themselves, rather obvious.
He saves these for his summing up.
...UNLESS YOU HAVE VERY DAMAGING INFORMATION YET TO USE. I have violated this iron rule of trial advocacy on many occasions.
Usually, I knew or could allude to something the witness either did not know, or could not anticipate being asked; and/or I thought I could turn a subsequent line of questioning against them anyway; or, worse still, my back was to the wall and I felt nothing left to lose. But it is dangerous.
The best thing to say is that if you don't have improvisational skills for this kind of thing, avoid it and keep known gains to forego unknown ones.

US FOREIGN POLICY LONG VIEW INHERENT FATAL WEAKNESSES
The best foreign policy analogy to the COVID 19 pandemic and previous SARS outbreaks all emanating from China, is how the US had handled foreign policy toward Bolshevik Russia, treating Russia as a friend of liberty against a decadent Imperialist West, and supporting the Soviets more or less throughout their early rise to power, then during the leftist US 1930s, helping them develop nuclear weapons both by loose security and a sharing of weaponry liberal ideology that proved disastrous, even to the end of WWII, when Stalin's true colors could no longer be fully hidden from the American people.
The analogy with Russia, of later US assistance and enormous concessions for China, especially after the Nixon Shock Pivot, but especially after 1980, is doubly striking, and heartbreaking, in retrospect.
US STATE DEPARTMENT CHINA CABLE WARNING SHOT IN ITS OWN LEG RE WUHAN
State said give them more support.
That has been the classic left liberal State position since Bolshevik days.
That has been the classic left liberal State position since Bolshevik days.
RESEARCH ON VIRUSES IN BATS BEING DONE AT WUHAN LAB HELLO
"... and even said he was looking into suggestions that the virus originated in a laboratory in Wuhan."
If you let China continue, managed or unmanaged, you are totally fucked. We have long been helping and funding this virology research, like giving your enemy the gun he shoots you with.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/04/14/state-department-cables-warned-safety-issues-wuhan-lab-studying-bat-coronaviruses/
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5708621/
The Chinese researchers at WIV were receiving assistance from the Galveston National Laboratory at the University of Texas Medical Branch and other U.S. organizations, but the Chinese requested additional help. The (US DEPARTMENT OF STATE) cables argued that the United States should give the Wuhan lab further support, mainly because its research on bat coronaviruses was important but also dangerous.
And it is not whether; it is now only a question of when.
They will continue work on germ warfare, and especially on vaccines for themselves, both for what they create, and for what they already confront, in their endemic and genetically diverse bat populations in China.
This looks, it seems, like a naturally occurring corona that skipped from bats to humans. That would be what you would want it to look like, wouldn't you?
As my colleague David Ignatius noted, the Chinese government’s original story — that the virus emerged from a seafood market in Wuhan — is shaky. Research by Chinese experts published in the Lancet in January showed the first known patient, identified on Dec. 1, had no connection to the market, nor did more than one-third of the cases in the first large cluster. Also, the market didn’t sell bats.
In November 2017, just before the U.S. officials’ visit, Shi’s team had published research showing that horseshoe bats they had collected from a cave in Yunnan province were very likely from the same bat population that spawned the SARS coronavirus in 2003.medcram
That is why I have said, smell the coffee, game over.
Here's a biggie: China poses a greater natural virology disaster risk for humans than the whole continent of Africa.

Political corruption and polarization do not rise in the absence of local papers......
That had been their meat and potatoes for their whole existence, since before the founding of the American Republic.

RE MR PATERSON EDITORIAL SAME OLD MEDIA HYPE TO SELL PAPERS: BUILDING A NATION OF KNOW-NOTHINGS; PROTECT PORNOGRAPHY AND VIOLENCE
Call it, after the later post topic, The Drew Pearson Fallacy:
The decadent American media feeds on federal, state, and local government. It has no higher mission or calling. Once in a while it even says so.
The print and television media have, over decades, in some respects since the beginning really, shown as little interest in taking up hard issues of political reform, of advancing from the political status quo, as have the politicians it covers for its bread and butter.
Just commenting on state (or local) government corruption or mismanagement, and pointing out self fulfilling things like how much time, proportionally, public officials must spend to try to cover up mistakes, while seemingly a good office,
(because officials know that the powerful and adverse media itself has nothing more constructive to do than seek out such things),
(and by implication, how little time, really, has been left over for substantive government administration and nuts and bolts government work),
has been what freedom of the press, and government in the sunshine, have been all about.
The bottom line, it doesn't get Americans 'better government'.
That's the dirty media secret, in all of this, decade in decade out, because better run governments, federal, state, local, or consolidated, that correspondingly would need or countenance less media coverage, and for which less media coverage, rather than more, would be well justified, is the last thing these old media darlings have wanted to hear.
They have been by far the strongest defenders of free press and open government, and have tirelessly lobbied the American people and bullied their politicians, because they have had the most powerful vested interests in such a laissez faire regime.
It is a corporate thing, not a good government thing.
That has been seen most clearly in the difficulties even most conservative Americans, and organizations, have had in instituting even basic protections from pornography, or pervasive violent prurient or obnoxious programming, or aggressive marketing of bad products targeted directly to children rather than to adults, and other things.
Politicians, of all people, are terrified to challenge freedom of press or sunshine laws, even though they, of all people, have long known, been rudely confronted by, and cowtow slavishly, to these truths.
The media even goes so far as to point out things like how successive administrations, in various states, recently NYT editorials re Illinois, long a snake pit of political vice, and here now New York state, fail to improve, over decades, without however drawing larger obvious positive conclusions or suggestions about the systems they cover,...... maybe state governments need radical overhaul, consolidation, a different political set up, whatever.
In this they have inadvertently indicted the media itself, because for what other higher reasons would one investigate, and report, such things, over and over again, decade in decade out, except in some hope, and with some suggestions, for fundamental changes.
Answer: to distract, to entertain, but above all, to appeal to lower interests causing the public to buy newspapers, etc.
They have been deleterious to the general welfare and political edification of Americans; helping keep already relatively weak governments, at all levels, weak, fragmented, unfocussed, and often on the defensive; while rendering media wealthy and powerful(ALTHOUGH DECIDEDLY LESS SO WITH THE RECENT ADVENT OF INTERNET SOURCES OF INFORMATION)
If you look at issues like truth and falsehood, the failure of media to self police, and the weakness of government to chastise it, has lead to the rise of demagogues, who themselves provide fodder for other media to contradict, even on basic facts.
This is a situation the media itself created, pundits like Limbaugh, and Fox News, and fodder of this type is what has always fueled the media.
The rise of these media sources spreading falsehoods, especially on the right, but on both looking back historically, is a natural product of the American media system, not a mere aberration. The fact that false statements and innuendo can flourish, can become the mainstream substance, is a commentary on the bankruptcy of American freedom of speech and press itself.
The Casanova hand of the unfettered, laissez faire, free market for news, yet again.

ONE CASE WHERE THE CLIENT WAS GRATEFUL
I represented an older black man (older than I back then) who had gotten, or been unwillingly pulled, into an altercation with another shopper, with racial implications, in a parking lot. Police were called, he had been charged with a felony, not the white other man.
He had no prior record as I recall, although that would have been uncommon, because black men usually had gotten charges seemingly by magnetism in our society.
Anyway, he was found not guilty, and I was very proud of that (trust me, you never ever really know how a jury verdict will turn out), more proud than of some more colorful exploits, because I thought he had been the wronged party.
It did not always work out that way for me or for anyone in my office.
He was grateful. That, in my career, was very rare.
FOR THE RUMPOLE FANS OUT THERE OF WHOM THERE ARE PROBABLY ONE
I once tried a case, very ugly allegations I won't even go into now.
The victim's father, later, after the jury verdict of not guilty...., was found, by law enforcement, to be in an absolute fit of rage doing doughnuts, in his truck, around the defendant's parked vehicle, in the courthouse or the county jail parking lot, I forget which lot. The state was, of course, livid about the whole situation.
I sometimes heard about stuff like this later, after a member of the state had cried on the shoulder of one of my colleagues, or had told me directly.
Defense lawyers did not get calls like this, directly from law enforcement, describing stuff like this, but the state often did.
I heard about things.....The pick ax in the eye, after my dangerous and not guilty client was released from jail..... Things like that.
By the way, I know some people have grateful, happy clients, that may even thank you, send flowers or chocolate, a card, stuff like that.
That was not my client group.
By contrast, Rumpole had three generations of the Timsons, South London villains, clients who generally were grateful, returned year in year out, things like that. That was not at all how it was here for a lawyer "on legal aid".

This is a fact he points out over and over again, example after example, just not quite in these primordial terms.

ONE MORAL OF DK'S LAST POST MATTEOTTI CIANFARRA
It just doesn't pay to be either a utopian globalist socialist activist, or an unsavory Italian journalist, Cianfarra.
George Seldes, the actual Chicago Tribune corrrespondent expelled from Italy, had been influenced by Cianfarra.
David F Schmitz, Between the Scylla of Reaction and the Charybdis of Bolshevism: Woodrow Wilson and Italy The United States And Fascist Italy, 1922-1940, fn 61.
it appears from the above that Seldes, the Chicago Tribune columnist, may have ratted out his seedy source, before being expelled from Italy, at the demand of his own government.
