No....I'd say that like many others here, when someone comes in with a chip on their shoulder, we have to decide whether to knock it off, or just ignore 'em. Most choose to ignore.
You walk into a courtroom and present to a judge like that, I'd say you'll quickly find out how much you have yet to learn.
No doubt I have more to learn. Life is an endless process of learning I expect. I think when I do go to court (have been prior representing myself over infractions and won them all) I would be concerned with what I believe to be a proper interpretation of the law, and I would want to make sure the judge understood my position, not just what I think, but why I think what I think. It's served me well in the past. Of course I realize there's more to it than that, especially when dealing with cases other than infractions, but still, the philosophy remains I think.
I hope people on this board aren't assuming that all new members must defer to longer standing members when in disagreement, or virtually bow down to them rather than speak freely. This isn't the military, it's a public discussion forum.... and it's not the first time I've been a member of one... subject being firearms or otherwise.
There's no chip on my shoulder when it comes to anyone here. I don't know anyone here.
I would however appreciate your take on some of these things, being a working attorney. It is, after all, a field I have great interest in and something I am somewhat passionate about in the absence of the motivation to be interested in things I used to care about.
