In four years of reading the IDS regularly, I’ve become accustomed to taking naive idealism with a grain of salt. I must protest, however, the glowing spotlight given to injury trial lawyers in the Feb. 27 issue (“Lawyer learned from upbringing”). In a justice system such as ours, where quality pageantry is as important as the merits of an argument, trial lawyers have proven a necessary evil. I implore other readers to remember that, as “Robin Hood” lines his pockets with money taken from innocent policy holders, he enjoys a purely parasitic existence in our society. Yes, it’s just that sleazy.
