@Hebro_Steele @Hebro_Steele has helped me to understand the evils that flow from failing to see every person as a human being, created in the image of God but corrupted by sin, and who is accountable for his or her choices. It’s incredible how the evils compound geometrically. God have mercy.

@SeanTrende Her view is a complete rejection of the Biblical teaching that we are all sinful and the cause of evil in our world. Christians (I’ll let others speak for Jews) should absolutely reject her view as being contrary to our most fundamental beliefs. Romans 3:23.

@RandyEBarnett Typing was one of the classes I took in high school when I didn’t graduate a year early (Dad wisely said don’t be in a rush). I also learned to 10-key, which still occasionally causes me to misdial my phone.

@MikeJShowalter @DavidLat These law professors?

[Orin Kerr @OrinKerr]

Law professors sue over petty things and they usually lose, study finds. https://t.co/KV6WqNb5qW (via @ericgoldman)

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@MikeJShowalter @DavidLat As much as I respect tenured law professors, they are not routinely solving novel or complex legal issues for clients. As a group, I would take partners of high level law firms over tenured law faculty. With due modesty, I believe I’m qualified to have an informed opinion.

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@MikeJShowalter @DavidLat This reminds me of the hype some years ago no one would be driving their own cars by a date that is long past. It won’t happen that fast, if ever.

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@DavidLat @MikeJShowalter The things that are clear cut may be largely left to AI, but bright younger lawyers can still develop novel solutions to a client’s legal issues. The work that remains will be more interesting. I agree that it will take fewer lawyers, but there will be much work to be done.

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@DavidLat @MikeJShowalter I’m not so sure. If that’s right, then judging matters of law will be similarly reduced. But legal work is often not so cut and dried. A significant part of what I do as a lawyer is to consider the overall context and make sophisticated judgments about how to proceed. 1/

@adamcarolla Or they could move closer to balancing the budget.

@mattyglesias Let me guess. Two of the three Republicans left in the field were already booked and the third is about to retire.

@MorenoffDan Now we know what “seminarian” was hiding.

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@LegInsurrection Now we know why he is described as a “seminarian,” a rather peculiar description for someone in his late 30’s. He’s been hiding that he’s been working as an educational consultant for the 6 years before his campaign started, championing extreme views in our public schools.

@jacobkornbluh @bdomenech Is his gentile chief of staff staying?

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@Legal_Fil Yes, but you & I have a moral grounding.

[Laura Ingraham @IngrahamAngle]

🚨CBS BIAS EXPOSED?

"I saw Scott Pelley sit at that conference room table and ask the pollsters, 'How soon can we call it for Hillary Clinton?'"

@bdomenech says Pelley's conduct on election night 2016 showed exactly why Americans stopped trusting the legacy media.

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@bonchieredstate Pelley’s not blind. He’s just extremely nearsighted in that he only watches until he sees what he wants. Having found the evidence he wanted to support his preordained conclusion, he quits looking. Like wanting to call the 2016 election for Clinton quickly. See link in comment.

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@dilanesper There are some high profile cases that have reversed other high profile cases, and those should be considered on their individual merit. But reversing precedent is always swimming upstream, and more so with conservative judges who reject “legislating from the bench.”

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@dilanesper As a practicing attorney for over 40 years, stare decisis is still a strong part of our common law. Attorneys still research the case law and advise their clients on what the law is based on that research. Judges are usually more interested in prior cases than brilliant argument.

@MorenoffDan “Trump”?

[Philip Lindquist @phillindquist]

@mattmosley This is what happens when schools don’t teach the importance of meeting deadlines.

@Doug75360657 @StatisticUrban DFW is much like Los Angeles, but without the geographic barriers to growth.
