"There is no crueler tyranny than injustice which is exercised under cover of law, and with the colors of justice …."
United States vs Jannottie, 673 F.2d 578, 614 (ed Cir. 1982) Do you agree? The more I read about this profession , the more compelling it gets. Especially with criminal law, and false imprisonment, and the evasion of accountability for grand theft to the rich, even attorneys who have not rightfully earned their money. Whats your take on this topic? Is the justice system in america severely flawed?

Interesting answers but it appears that it is many a lawyer does not have all the facts, has investigative skills subpar to a highschool level thinking, accepts high paychecks lives very comfortable while the price of their lack of diligence is paid from the pocket with the life of its victims. Second, how come fraud is a billion dollar business in the united states, because fraud brings in money, and money brings in power, and power brings in injustice. I think that any lawyer who even considers to accept 250 an hour for services and does not earn that money, it is theft. Yet, a person can go to jail for stealing a candy bar?

i agree lawyers don't do anything. they get paid the big bucks and you can be innocent and find yourself prison bound. that's what's criminal.the only reason this judicial system is in kaos is because of lawyers. it's absolutely corrupt it's criminal. until the injustice happens to you, either you've trusted the government or you really don't know what's going on. criminalizing society has been a great revenue scam for awhile. the lawyers have no problems helping you make a deal, but fight for your innocences? they don't have a clue? it's criminal what the judicial system has done and continues to do to great citizens of this country.

No, I don't think it is. It's one of the best I've seen. The flaws are human flaws (flaws of the people involved in the system), and I don't know any justice system that can do away with those, unless we automated everything... but then you'd have to worry about the flaws of the computer programmers, the people maintaining the machines, etc. etc.
The best thing I can say about the justice system is that, usually, if an outcome doesn't seem right, you either don't have all of the facts or you disagree with the law.
And I don't know what the first responder is talking about. Lawyers sue other lawyers. It's why they carry malpractice insurance. And they usually lose when they're sued.

Adultery is immoral, yet not unlawful. working an unlicensed, unregistered nevertheless to make untaxed moonshine is illegitimate ... yet not unethical or immoral. in uncomplicated terms a pair of examples to coach that criminal, ethical, and ethical are 3 distinctive issues.
