    Do you hate lawyers ?
    Why ?

    there seems to be an odd love-hate relationship between the ordinary citizen and lawyers. They're happy if their spouse, or children study to become one, or are one, but they're not thrilled about them in general ?

    Please post any experiences with lawyers/legal system you wish to share..

    Lawyers are like hired guns that can legally kill people. They are respected and feared.

    There is no hypocrisy.

    You dislike them when you do not need them but love them when you are in jail.

    I don't hate lawyers, I hate those that practice it badly, it's not the profession, it's the person that doesn't belong in it that causes the problem.

    Bells, as you know, I have my very own HRL beside me, not quite a hippy but trippy none the less.
    I love her and hate her at once.

    Nope, I don't hate lawyers. I am trying to influence my younger brothers to become lawyer (to study law) and policeman, so they can protect my family and friends far away in home country

    But I think it'd be really nice to have a direct family member who is a lawyer, police, or medical doctor. Engineers family members are boring

    (except IT or computer engineers). Like, what for is a geologist family member?

    I volunteer for HRW and I don't consider myself a hippy or trippy. I am actually a legal conservative, but am very left leaning politically.
