I do not have a problem with Cash being a social justice warrior. You obviously do.

I do not care for much if Willie’s music. I recognize his song writing skill. He is still a pot head who did not pay his taxes.

Look at the post;

President Trump we agree,

Iraq Invasion (not Afghanistan) we agree,

Lack of value for human life we agree,

Christians giving you a hard time about your non married girlfriend we agree,

Congress not caring about people who do not donate to them in large amounts (we generally agree),


Death penalty eligibility for people who kill children we agree. The difference is I helped do something about it. You just run your mouth.

And I do not give up.

One last thing. I am 34. Married once for 12 years. I have no mortgage. I paid that before I was 27. I am not a child. I am the highest level trial prosecutor in the state.

Lawyers across the state call me for help. I grew up as poor as anyone here from a home you cannot understand. I paid for my education with my grades. I never had to take a student loan. All things are relative. Some call me rich.

I will be the next Judge here if I want it.

I have the Dem Governor and the GOP Senate President personal phone on speed dial.

There is not a catastrophe on my region that does not have my personal response.

I am not your kiddo. I let a lot slide. Not that. The person I was a kid to died when I was 17.

You start living what you preach. You talk about respecting people while dehumanizing these people.

You want to live in relative idol in Alaska away from the “problems.” Good for you. That is your choice. I made mine.

You seem to talk about me a lot for someone who does not care.

I do not care about JTex opinion about me. I care about his stupid positions as detailed in previous threads including this one.

Science he says. What about the science that says gender dysphoria is a condition treated by transition when appropriate? That is always ignored by those who hate trans folks here.

At the end of the day, from my point of view it does not matter. She has caused you, me, Jtex, no harm. However, he feels empowered to insult her. He can go straddle a Billie goat.

He sure does worry about trans people a lot.

I too was once a young professional. Graduated Magna Cum Laude from TAMU College of Veterinary Medicine, Board Certified in Equine Surgery on first testing etc etc. I became a partner in a large practice at 34. I was sought after to speak at all major meetings (still am) and in the hierarchy of the major organizations.

I was staunchly pro-choice at the time, had the answers to all world problems (in my own mind), and thought of myself as a financial whiz and business guru as well. People used to tell me all the time…”you are a nice guy but you are anything but humble.” They meant it in a jokingly way as I was a go to guy for tough cases.

At 59, I am pro-life. And I see that a lot of things “I used to know”…were wrong or at least not 100%.

You may not be a “kid” but you still have a lot of mental maturation ahead of you. You can lash out at me for saying this as I did when people told me the same. But when you are near the end of your career and reflect back…you will see I was correct.

One problem arises when you collectively can’t agree on truth. Usually it’s related to judgement calls.

In his field, if he’s wrong, you have a dead horse. Very binary in your facts.

The legal field (IANAL) seems to be shades of gray that people want to be black or white. So lawyers tend to have very different perspectives than scientists or engineers.

The obvious exception would be long term renter working. None of us were that.

Here is a something I am very proud of.

In the 4th grade we had an assignment to make a list of what we want to accomplish with our lives. It was after the class took us to local businesses, officials to ask questions about their careers and how they got those positions. The list was the homework to that assignment. I went to the Commonwealth Attorney.


Go to college debt free,
Good score on the LSAT,
Go to Law School (debt was not conditional, but I did that debt free),
Not live on the community I grew up in,
Make 6 figures,
Own a home (no debt),
Travel overseas (no where specific),
Become an assistant Commonwealth Attorney (The Commonwealth attorney has to be elected. Elections. People from Mud Creek do not get elected. Lack of control to make it happen)
Marry Well.

I have minors do this that come into the Court system when appropriate.

As far as peaking, physically that was 24-27.

Intellectual, ask me in 2 years after this murder trial.

When I was 45, my legal skills as a trial lawyer were at their best. I was good at it, and was confident or arrogant enough to have gone to trial against any lawyer in the country. I knew the evidence rules, including the 25 exceptions to the hearsay rule, by heart. I could control thousands of documents, and dozens of witnesses--keep it all in my head for calling up when needed.

When I retired from lawyering at age 59, trials no longer challenged and interested me much. I'd seen too many incomprehensible or unjust results. I settled cases more often, on the best terms possible for my client. I tried to avoid the clients who refused to settle, while bitching about their attorney's fees. I advised clients that if we went to trial and won, they might never collect. Or the amount they win could be less than their costs. I believed that most all civil cases can and should settle.

So, Ledvm, I'll concede you are partially right: wisdom does come with age. But wisdom isn't everything.

LHeym is probably approaching the peak of his skills as a lawyer. I enjoy reading his legal analyses, and you know what?

He's usually right.

YOU have real problems, in the West.

You have started glorifying the unacceptable in human terms.

Your universities that have been so great in the past, don't allow anyone a free opinion any more.

Blacks who have never been slaves, are demanding payment from white who have never owned slaves.

What an utterly fucked up society yours have become!

A freak is upset because he wants to be a woman, but has a dick and balls, and doesn't know whether to go to the ladies or gents toilets??

Fucking hell, what next?

Serving shit in 5 star restaurants?

More like most take it as the blowhard blathering of a guy who does kind of have a point that they are treating him differently than they have others in the past.



A private company hires a spokesperson who has done no crimes and harmed no one. However, it has 700 plus views
A public spokesperson is a representative of the company. While you might not think the representative has done anything illegal or wrong, you might not want to associate with folks who think it’s what they want people to believe they think they associate with. Would you buy something from a company that uses DJT as a spokesman? Me neither.

We have real problems. This topic is not one.
I disagree. The fact that companies see a need to use controversial people as spokespeople is a sign of trouble in our society. I don’t see it as a legal problem, but rather a sign that marketing has become too pervasive and intrusive. Would anyone have known about this if it wasn’t being sent out for public use?

What is clear is a very large part of our listers care what others do with themselves, what private companies fo from a hiring standpoint.
If the company wants to niche market, there is a downside as well.

Those are not very libertarian or conservative positions.
I don’t see it that way. If you make a corporate statement, it has the likelihood of drawing a response. If you don’t want blowback, don’t niche market targeting population groups.

Gaging at gnats while choking down President Trump calling for suspension of the Constitution and his reinstatement as President.
You don’t see the relationship between these? Would Trump have gained traction if modern niche politics were not so confrontational?

Scott King: There is no blathering when you challenge to my credentials is checked.

If you wish I can send my appointments to you. I have others on here.
I have no doubts you do what you claim. Your statements support your claims in all ways but one… that of lack of proofreading.

I am also a state Commissioner that regulates for profit schools in KY. Ask and I will send it to you.
Not doubting you at all, but why in blue blazes are they putting prosecutors in charge of schools?

You want to call me a kid. No, I will not let my life’s work be made trivial by you.
Here you seem a bit touchy. Being referred to as young is hardly trivializing your work. It does raise questions when you get touchy about it as to why…. Could it be rejecting your viewpoint? Seems we hear “Whatever, Boomer” all the time.

You have no superiority to me or anyone else here.
Superiority, no. Perspective difference, yes.

So, take your condensation, your attitude, and go complain about the church that looked down on you for an unmarried girlfriend.
Look at it this way. Lots of successful folks here. Scott is one. You seem to be belittling him because he’s not a highly educated type… so what does that say?

What I am. I am. I will gladly stay here ruining your day apparently.
Hell, if interactions here ruined anyone’s day, WTF are they here for?

The only thing I have to do to live the life
you wanted to live is not die in my sleep.

I don't think most of us take offense at cross dressing, but we would like some kind of say so when it comes to the where, when, why and how our offspring are exposed and introduced. I've feel no need to explain or be forced to explain cross dressing to my six year old. I have that authority. They have no reason or authority to force otherwise for example in a drag queen story hour.

If by any tradition, societal norm, custom, cultural practice or opinion women have not had to share team sports or bathrooms or clothing departments with men, I certainly think change or different practices could be good but a bit of discussion and wisdom well in advance seems called for. Over the past several decades it seems the majority agree that blackface is a performance that is not appropriate in our culture. I don't care for it nor would I participate as an audience.
If men are to be allowed in womens sports and other gender exclusive venues it also should have well thought out and very broad public support, not because we don't want to hurt Sandy's feelings. It seems at this time many women athletes and sportswomen don't like the male intrusion.
