LAWYERS

As a young man determining a future career
I always considered becoming a lawyer but felt that I was too passionate for
the frequently common occurrences of injustices that occur in today’s legal
system. I considered the profession
because it was a place where I could exercise my need to help the meek and
overwhelmed. If you are familiar with my
stories then you know my passion tends to want to make things better… One large problem with becoming a lawyer is
the company one would have to keep as in some of the other lawyers. As a lawyer one can be a great thinker who
methodically processes the laws of legislature combined with the laws of
mankind while being largely seasoned with the laws of nature. The problem with some lawyers and the legal
system as a whole is that you have renegade lawyers and judges who just feel
that they know what is right when in fact, they don’t. These particular lawyers are as blind to the
laws they are upholding as the Statue of Justice they put in legal halls. The
Statue of Justice is blinded by the blindfold that they put on.
What solidified my decision to not enter
the law, a decision I do regret, was a movie I saw in my earlier decision making
years called, ‘And Justice for All’. In
this movie a judge knowingly and frivolously leaves a man in prison for a
broken tail light over a technicality.
The young man eventually takes his own life in prison over the injustice
he can no longer gather the need to live through. Although this situation was hypothetical, I
arose from the television knowing it does happen and that I myself could
probably end up in prison if I witnessed a judge do such actions to one of my
clients. I had to pass on the law for my
own safety. I decided to take the same
blindfold the statue was wearing and pass.
I later met a woman who came to call
herself my stepmom as I lovingly refer to her as my stepmother who happened to
be an attorney herself. I was once in a
car with this attorney stepmother and she absolutely lost her mind and went
completely off her rocker. She went
completely ballistic and pulled an all out Anthonystjoseph. She started yelling, just like me. She started foaming at the mouth, just like
me. She started making sense, just like
me. She didn’t care what you thought,
just like me. She was completely
passionate about her stance; JUST LIKE ME!
Dang! Maybe I could have been a
lawyer? No, my decision was correct; my
stepmother was pulling a temporary Anthonystjoseph while I’m living a permanent
Anthonystjoseph…
Just recently, a judge named Kathleen
McHugh in a Florida court sentenced an athlete to THIRTY days in jail for
patting his lawyer on the rear end when he was prompted by her and asked how
the he felt about his lawyer. The said
athlete was in court over a domestic violence case which is a very serious
topic and should be taken very seriously indeed but an at-a-boy butt slap to
his attorney is not an offense warranting jail time by any means of the
law. In her sentencing of this athlete to
thirty days in jail for the ‘at-a-boy’, it says more about Judge Kathleen McHugh
then it does the defendant or the offense.
When a judge or lawyer makes the law or their decisions about them and not the law then that judge or
lawyer has clearly lost their way and should permanently leave the courtroom
and put on a blindfold to practicing the law because they are committing
malpractice in a gross way.
Generally, when a gross injustice is
handed out publicly in the legal system the wagons are circled and all the
legal practitioners involved say nothing.
In this Florida ‘thirty day’ sentence of incarceration for an at-a-boy
butt tap, the case has become different.
Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi has publicly stated that Judge
Kathleen McHugh’s actions shed more of a light on Judge McHugh’s ‘Judicial Temperament’
then the subject matter that was before the court. I would like to personally go on record
stating that Pam Bondi is a lighthouse in the den of blindfold producing
practitioners of the law. Legal
practitioners like Judge Kathleen McHugh should be tarred and feathered and run
out of the courtroom and away from traumatizing people’s lives due to their own
personal issues, agendas, wants, and desires.
As a judge or lawyer you are there to think, appraise, deliberate, and
decide in a thoughtful manner devoid of your personal baggage. Where is my blindfold?
And by the way, the Statue of Justice
would like to thank you for blindfolding her to the atrocities that are
committed in her name in your walls of so called justice.
