Good thing I'm not a lawyer because I can't tie ANYTHING without this R thumb & an now wearing geezer slip on sneakers, i.e. Sketchers.

Randazza is one of the top first amendment lawyers in the country.  He started out repping porn companies, but has done a good bit of ACLU-worthy stuff too.

I guess he's a bit of an absolutist because he's repped some right-wing douchebags as well.  I don't think he aligns that way, though.

Coming back to this, didn't realize he was on Infowars.

That close an association with Jones does not speak well of him.  But, I'm sure he's quite used to dealing with lunatics and inured to it.  And that is a great place to drum up business from lunatics, which is sort of his stock in trade.

This from their website, which reflects what I said about being absolutists:

We went up against the government because they were trying to censor a guy who protested in favor of LGBTQ rights. Then, we used the same underlying briefing to support a woman who protested against Pride Month. We are Catholics who assist pro-abortion protesters and Satanists. We are Jews who fight for Nazis’ free speech rights. We are gays who fight for people who want to end marriage equality. We find the greatest purity in supporting speech we despise, because that is what freedom is about.

Sirens going off with this line. Someone starts going on about striving for “purity” and I put them in my jihadi/Crusader/Heaven’s Gate mental box. You can’t argue with it. 
 

“We believe freedom of speech is the most fundamental human right and guarantor of other freedoms, so we vigorously defend expression we find personally abhorrent.”  100 percent less crazy, open to debate and discussion, same general principle.

I mean, look at the OP, the guy is a little nuts.  Funny as it may be, there's really no need to go there in that particular way.  So yeah, he's nuts.  Also effective, apparently.

Lost a lot of respect for him representing Paxton in his impeachment.

Haha fuck him then but his 5th point is spot on. Last time I encountered an aggy lawyer he was wearing that stupid high school ring with an high and tight poorly done hair cut and I lost all respect for him and wiped the floor with him at a hearing. That was before they bought Wesleyan so it was a sad aggy undergrad. At SMU Law my favorite memory was when Prof. Dorsaneo had the Joe Jamail deposition from the Pennzoil case playing as we walked in, good shit lol.

The funny thing is he is describing aggy in 2 through 4 then just comes out and says avoid aggy at 5.
