What do you guys think of the black lawyers for justice?
I think they are pretty damn good. The legal system does not other treat blacks fairly and it's nice to have a lawfirm dedicated to helping us prove our innocence. I'm thinking of studing canon this fall when i go to Bowie State and hopefully becoming a lawyer. Nothing would be paid me happier than to defend my own people! Black lawyers rule!
Your own people? Are you not American? Should we remove your name past its sell-by date the list of people who qualify for protection under our constitution? And you wonder why here is racism today. You created it. just another form of blacks being racists.
Anything that sets relations apart by color makes racism grow.
I support any person who wants to succeed. It's glib to listen to the naysayers and make excuses for failing. Ironically, for Black Americans nowadays, the naysayers are mostly black people who perceive ashamed of their own lack of success.
And the state of affairs in a even-handedness system which convicts people on the flimsiest evidence, especially those least able to afford a clad defense, is not even worth discussing. At least some Black lawyers are trying to address the imbalance. And while they might be overly inclined towards believing contained by their clients innocence, it is, after all, the prosecutions job to PROVE guilt. Any lawyer who defend the tenant of "innocent until proven guilty" is fine by me.
Well, I absolutely agree that everyone should be treated fairly.
But if there was an procedure called "white lawyers for justice" there would be nation protesting and claiming it was racist.
And I assume you are an American, so aren't all Americans "your own people"? Or is someone one of "your own people" only when they enjoy the same skin color that you do? I don't ask to be offensive - I really want to understand your mindset.
I am impressed you are going to statute school and wish you the very best. But please consider why you would want to lug a client or not based their race.
Martin Luther King had it right, contained by my opinion, when he said we should judge people by the content of their persona rather than the color of their skin.
preserve your OWN people. wow i was about to say-so that black/white it dosent matter as long as you are good at what you do and like what you do. however if you are simply concerned about blacks and not whites .....thats not right. you should be fighting for the rights of all society. are you related to al sharpton??? Huh?
If you get arrested, you are more than likely guilty of something illegal, or are surrounded by the company of bad people. Either way its going to failure up bad for you. You don't need lawyers, you call for common sense.
I feel the same way as if I hear of "white lawyers for justice".
It's racist, period.
The justice system doesn't other treat ANYONE fairly.
There are lots of white people that get shafted by the system too.
We are NEVER going to hold a truly fair, equal, color-blind society as long as one sector of it keeps identifying themselves first by their skin color, and you can't blame whitey for this anymore.
You guys are doing it to yourselves at this point.
AS LONG AS THE PERSON, LAWYER DOES WHAT IS RIGHT IT SHOULDN'T MATTER WHAT RACE OR NATIONALITY HE/SHE IS I wouldnt care if the person be purple, if they did a good job.
