He is a lawyer.

I know.

Am I supposed to take it as indicative of anything particularly relevant that he thinks he could convince his mother that multiple felonies were committed here?

Then I don't understand your comment. Sorry.

How do we know he is a lawyer? Because his profile says so? Maybe he's like so many folks who didn't know what to do with themselves but were pampered enough to get another four years of school dayz, got a law degree, then did something else? Sorry, but saying "I'm a lawyer" and debating people doesn't mean I have to respect your views on the law.

I am inclined to believe he is a lawyer. He sure sounds like one. I'll even concede him to be a better source of opinions pertaining the law than others.

Of course that means fuck-all in a discussion about ethics.

"but were pampered enough to get another four years of school dayz, got a law degree,"

What does your class warrior attitude have to do with anything? I'm not sure what country you are from but in the states law school is three years and the majority of students graduate with mountains of student debt. Its hardly what I would call "pampered school dayz[sic]."
