Let the Litigation Begin


Let the litigation begin!

Now that America has suffered roughly a dozen deaths, hundreds of injuries, and a billion dollars or so in property damage at the hands of rioters, looters, thugs and "mostly peaceful protestors," it is time to call Saul. Or Abe. Or Gloria. Or any member of the bar who has fallen behind on their country club dues.

My legal advice is worth exactly what I charge but here is a nugget that any dream team will endorse. If you received injury to person or property as a result of the civilly-sanctioned riots of 2020, talk to a hungry attorney immediately.

You see, taxation is legitimized by necessity...Public safety is deemed essential...Even if you pay no taxes, your safety is regarded as a constitutional right and if your constitutional rights are violated, you may be entitled to compensation...When an ego-driven mayor tells his police to "stand down" in the heat of battle, that might not be his decision to make...when a police station is sacrificed to "mostly peaceful protestors" it might not be a choice the mayor or police brass can legally render...not every decision is discretionary...

I know I used plenty of dots but trust me, a good lawyer can connect those dots for you. Oh yeah. If dots can connect, there is someone willing and able to make the figure take form.

Public officials are immune from litigation but not the entities they serve. The cities of New York, Seattle, St. Louis, fill in the blank, might have some huge sums to pay out. BLM is not immune from litigation. Antifa is not immune from litigation. Donors to BLM and Antifa are not immune from real or punitive damages.

To the three hundred officers wounded in NYC, the officers who were burned, shot or otherwise injured in St. Louis, as well as scores of other officers, you might think about seeking representation. Whoever bussed in the Rent-A-Riot crew shares in the liability for your treatment and recuperation. I hear Antifa and BLM have deep, deep, deep pockets.

So come on, my good-hearted Americans, let’s perform that most American ritual of rituals. Please, please, please.

Sue the bastards!
