Nope. Not my intention anyway.
pit another way- today I got my ticket dismissed for lack of having insurance. Convinced said I wasn’t guilty and that was my sense as well (started another thread) and one of the thoughts I had was, if I was a black lawyer representing myself would the DA have dismissed my case. I have no idea yes or no, and the DA was Hispanic not white, but I’m pretty sure I had a ticket dismissed in my past that a poor person of color might not have gotten a walk on in Montgomery county (not that my situation was undeserving but maybe someone that looked different than me might have gotten less consideration for.
I would suspect that kind of research has been done.
Now, I seemingly in the total minority being white with almost everyone at the setting being Hispanic. It seemed like 1/2 the cases were dismissed today (Harris county inside the beltway) but that wasn’t my sense of how cases were handled in Montgomery county.
I never have practiced law beyond summer internships 20 years ago other than those two times representing myself so I have no idea how it actually works in practice.Everyone stop for a second and appreciate the fact that the person who wrote this graduated from law school at some point.

The virus came from somewhere in China, be it from a wet market or a lab. We need to figure out what happened and try to keep it from happening again.
The experience with the virus in the US was made worse by the fact we had a president who thought you could cure it by injecting bleach and shoving a UV light up your ass. We need to keep that from happening again as well.
These are not mutually exclusive.

The key part to this is he married her because at the time, statutory rape couldn't be filed if you married the girl who was pregnant. They divorced quickly (she was 18 or 19). Yeah, lots of shady shit there. Fuck this guy and fuck Florida.
Hey you are totally ignoring that girl's empowerment.

Per my understanding of this bill, a business owner has to verbally tell people they can't carry guns into their business and can't just post a sign. Why is my right to say what happens in a business that I own superseded by limpdicks like Armybrat and Johnny Sack who are so afraid of life they have to carry a gun with them everywhere they go?
Edited to add: This is what was in the initial bill. If I'm factually incorrect and this didn't make it into what Abbott signed, by all means please let me know.

Dammit. There's a happy medium between "OMG HOLY SHIT WE ARE PULLING EVERYONE OUT RIGHT THIS SECOND WITH NO PLAN!" and staying forever and bombing shit. Figure out a way to fold up the tents in an orderly fashion and gtfo.

If you think the Surly attorney collective has a high amount of self-regard, Deloitte employees say "Hold my beer."

HEB, Plano is calling you with a smoking deal on a large storefront property.
Hello.............I'm not sure how many people I'd kill for them to dump an HEB in there but it is more than zero.

Along with 3-4 triple fake Tigers during the e-brake on Friday.
Good grief the regular triple fake tiger is bad enough. Does that dork that calls in every week hang up, fist pump, and think "Nailed it again!!"?

How about they just hurry the fuck up with D4 and concentrate on not having a dogshit launch like D3 did.

Where did the rightwing doofuses pick up the phrase "gain of function"? They're spouting it like a six year old who learned a new curse word lately.
