It takes a court challenge to establish this shit. If Slick has had his civil rights trampled as much as everyone says, his lawyer would have had this in court, getting an injunction back last wednesday or thusday when all the shit went down originally.

So, he either has a suck ass lawyer or he doesn't have a leg to stand on in his lawyer's eyes.

Why does everything have to be challenged in court? Like I said, money seems to trump what is right in many instances. OJ for instance. (just my opinion btw)
Maybe he can't afford a lawyer, but if he can and he has a suck ass lawyer, why should what is right always have to be determined by lawyers?
You want your freedoms defended by someone's suck ass lawyer who might lose a precedent setting case that affects your rights?
edit: Getting away with it is not the issue.

Only in your utopia is that true. In the legal world, getting away with it. unfortunately, is almost always the issue.

Should GW be impeached for the way he got the US into Iraq. Should he, probably. Will he, not on your life.

Should Ollie North be walking around free? No way in hell. Is he? Yeppirs.

And OJ is another case of it.

In a country run by the rule of law, only the lawyers win outright. A lawyer is a fancy ass con man for the most part and the one that can woo the court or a jury the best wins.

But, in reference to getting into a court and get an injunction, it costs $75.00 (or somewhere in that area, it was $75 in 1986 when I was involved in one) to get in front of a federal judge and request an injunction against something like the TOS being enforced. If it has even a crooked leg to stand on, a 5 or 10 day injunction will be imposed almost for sure.

If I know this, I think any lawyer offering advice in this biz would know this.
