    I agree to disagree - most times I have ended up in court I could have made choices to stay out, on balance I feel that even when I have won in court by preparing and going I still lost overall and so, most times those were bad decisions to go, fight and win.

      Sounds like you’ve had unusual experiences with the courts. I can’t force you to base your opinion off of more typical experiences, in large part because you haven’t lived other people’s lives (or looked into their court cases).

      Back to my metaphor, if a seat-belt trapped me in my car, I wouldn’t decide that must be normal and I should never wear a seat-belt again.

        I agree about seatbelts - though if I lived 3 or 4 near-death experiences where seat belts made my outcome worse instead of better, I’d probably say to hell with the odds…

        I know a lot of people who have spent time in the court system, other than ambulance chaser backed situations, I don’t know many happy with the outcomes.

          I’m not saying you don’t have cause to be a bit silly about this, I’m just trying to get you to realize you’re being a bit silly about this.
