#3 Hmmm These attorneys who are facilitators of evil are about to get to the point where the advocacy nature of the legal system will end, and good old self-defense, and justifiable retrobution begins. When these slimeballs like Goetz act as a facilitator of evil, they become part of the problem. Some folks who lose loved ones in a 9-11 part II may take personal action against the likes of Goetz for his actions which led to such a tragedy. When the "murder" trial happens, an "OJ Simpson conclusion" for those "defendants" will be the result... But this time, there would be no outrage...

#4 "The muslim lawyer lied..." Shouldn't that mean that all lawyers are muslims, or all muslims are lawyers, or - my head hurts...

#5 The flying Imams! Why peanuts and a circus tent immediately come to mind?

#6 "The attorney for one of the passengers says the imams' offer comes only as congress is about to give immunity to those reporting suspicious behavior. "The offer is only made after congress passes the immunity provision with the threat of assessing fees and costs against parties suing those making reports in good faith.." which leads me to 2 possible conclusions: either they are doing this to show they are not bad guys and Congress drops the entire bill, in which case they turn around and say 'never mind, we changed our minds," or (more likely) they realized that they would not only lose but get countersued and lose their ass, plus the ensuing discovery would open a whole bunch of cans o' worms and expose funding souces they want to keep quiet (like SA et al).

#7 Don't be silly, M. Murcek. There are good people who practice law. Quite a number of Rantburgers are practicing lawyers, or formerly practicing like ex-JAG, or married to lawyers. Q.E.D. ;-)

#8 When Minneapolis law firm Faegre & Benson first offered pro bono defense services in any "John Doe" lawsuits, I telephoned Gerry Nolting and thanked him personally for standing up to this vile threat. He came across like a real standup guy.

I'd prefer not being surprised that Congress had the spine to pass this, but I am. I can only assume that after the immigration bill debacle more congressional politicians realize that the public will not tolerate any more of their treason.

I also think USN Ret. hits the nailhead with his observations about discovery. The Arizona imams are part of one of the first and possibly largest al Qaeda cells in America. Opening up that can of worms could have finally shed light upon some of our worst enemies on American soil.

#9 Waaah? Kobuchar changes vote at last minute!

Note the quote where she strongly infers that she wanted to vote against it because it would protect "middle eastern men".

"I was thinking about a case I had in Bloomington as [Hennepin] county attorney. A security guard reported a series of fires set by a 'Middle Eastern man, said Klobuchar".

WTF.

Actually her change of heart can be attributed to pissed off constituants and at least one Saint Paul Klobuchar staffer that thought the Senator's voting against Americans was questionable at best. Her DC office had a bit of a firestorm over that one and rightly so (ie: Amy's aid Joe). They got caught endorsing a Muslim terrorist funded (CAIR) lawsuit.

Klobuchar claimed that a talk with Lieberman help "alleviate her concerns". More likely she did that conversation to protect her from repercussions from fellow DNC traitors.

One strong part of this new law is (if I'm not mistaken) an allowance of the John Does to heavily sue back or at least some kind of fine involved against dry run Muslim sue happy terrorist. To which I say fantastic because it hits Dhimmi scum like Fred Goetz right in the pocket book!

By the way did you catch the look on Gerry Nolting's face? Talk about a lawyer knowing he's got CAIR up against the wall. Not only that but Nolting looked genuinely pissed.

Turns out that Gerry is friends and partners with the lawyers on Power Line (Rathergate fame).

Why did he do it? He said. “It seemed to me a calculated act, meant to intimidate passengers from reporting suspicious behavior. The judicial system should not be used to ‘chill’ people from performing their civic duty.”

An American man with honor and balls. Unlike the Muzzies and Fred Goetz. Which leaves one with a question. What is the one thing lower than Muslim terrorist and the liberals that defend Islam. Well that would be their lawyers, like Fred Goetz.

#10 Hoot! Zen I called Nolting's office too. If any other Burgers should choose to his office number is 800-766-7000. I might suggest just leaving a message as not to tie up Mr. Nolting.

God Bless him!

PS: Is there any chance we could declare today National Arizona Pork Day?

#13 TW, M.Murcek is right. Lawyers have destroyed the culture of America. As a group they are practically useless. If a doctor makes a mistake while doing a procedure, does a lawyer help make things right ? No, he sues the doctor causing damage to the doctor's attitude about the practice of medicine. Lawyers never actually do anything progressive, but they extract revenge. That's hardly a contribution to culture. They are also responsible for laws written in such a way that average people can't understand the law. This assures the continued need for lawyers, yet the practice should be outlawed, and would be in a logical society. Because of lawyers, a person committing a crime that he is unaware of, may be guilty unless he was not read his Miranda. Ignorance of the law is no excuse, but ignorance of your Miranda is grounds for dismissal.
Like I said, adds nothing to the culture, rather destroys it by degree. If you don't believe me, compare the lives of youth about 60 years ago when teachers could decipline children, and parents didn't sue over childish fights and misadventures, with youth of today. Lawyers are a part of that sorry decline. And they accomplished what ? Oh, yes, they made money.

#14 wx: I think you are using too broad of a brush to paint all lawyers the same color. yes there are ambulance chasers, but if you had a neighbor trying to take some of your property there are three ways to settle it, roll over (which is probably your first choice), counterattack with force which would get you in trouble with the law, and by your own admission an attorney would just accelerate your own personal decline, or third, you could use the laws that you don't understand to fight back and if your case had merit, you would prevail. yes the attorney you hired would earn some money but the other party would most likely be directed to pay.
Your argument is specious.

Full disclosure: my son is an attorney and he has yet to go chasing ambulances; instead he has fought for various property rights case, won them all, and is now working as a city attorney, putting bad guys in the slammer, thus preventing the decline in society that you evidently pin squarely on the shoulders of the laywers.

#15 As for me, I was joking. When I need a lawyer, I want one who reminds me of a pit bull in a three piece suit. America's strength remains everybody's right to stake out the stupidest position they're personally comfortable with, and sometimes that requires professional representation. Let's crush our enemies on the battlefield of their choosing with the righteous hammerblows of better ideas. (sharia advocates, I'm talkin' 'bout you...)

#16 whatever wxj or others may think of lawyers, it is a fact that, on net, American Lawyers are taking on jihad and doing serious damage.

Not just Nolting.

Lawyers have successfully sued jihad banks.

the lawyers for the DoJustice have prosecuted jihadis.

lawyers have taken pro bono work for people legally attacked by CAIR lawyers and done enormous damage to CAIR during the discovery

#17 These citizens should not need a law to protect them when reporting in good faith. That is a problem too many lawyers created. It's not the natural state of things.

#20 Elmilet LOL! Crusader thanks for the Goetz e-mail address. It might be interesting to prank him.

In the mean time CAIR backed down showing their soft underbelly. Counter suit. As USN Ret and Zen pointed out, the discovery process would destroy these porKoranimals. Just take a look at the CAIR lawsuit against AntiCAIR. If I'm not mistaken AntiCAIR got paid just to go away.

Like the desert cockroaches they are, the Islamic sue boys run like scattered camels when the shoe is on the other foot and coming their way.

Speaking of which it appears that the Pace student has got a small army of volunteer lawyers for his koran flushing arrest. At least two of the are members at Little Green Footballs.

Go team go!

#22 Thanks besoeker. "The flying Imams! Why peanuts and ..."

Major flashback to the Ayatollah flying in from Paris to Tehran while jimmah did NOTHING. On the brighter side, it does remand me that as bad as things seem today, we have survived worse.
