re: When did "no passing Harley riders wearing colors" become a thing?

I remember you talking about Iron Order. Best I can tell is this was some West GA thing that may have been a supporter club for Outlaws.
My wife: "wait, so he's like a grownup pledge for the motorcycle club"?...

Darth I saw an Iron Cross MC and prospect dude yesterday, I thought they were an extinct local MC in GA, do you know anything about them?...

I was doing VV OTGs for a while but moving to mostly Lulu ABCs
The latter hold up a lot better IMO....

Weird thread so far for several reasons -
- AU scheduled several decent programs last season and none other than Baylor ended up being very good. Holding that against Bruce/AU is very odd
- Bruce and Auburn traditionally schedule pretty decent opponents once he got the program humming, far be...

Maybe I'm just further entrenched in law than I think, but I just don't really think of it being a moral matter when it comes to sophisticated entities trying to get the upper hand in a negotiation or contract interpretation, etc.
I can see that more so for an insurance company screwing over some...

It's not really something I have to deal with. When I litigated, it was always a sliding scale of "fault" anyway, it'd be hard to thing of some bright line clear liability matter in my practice. But we would make judgments in taking on matters - I've got no obligation to represent scumbags and it m...

Posted by Pettifogger on 5/21/24 at 3:20 pm
Well first, you added the "at fault"/civil piece.
But second, for many of my cases that assessment wouldn't have made much sense. For example, if you're litigating some multimillion dollar lease termination provision with conflicting interpretations, is anyone really at fault - even the entity...

My point was that it's really unlikely that someone who spends most of his posts on this board railing about culture war stuff and how Western culture is dead has a real soft spot for the "Trump is a dictator and promotes fascism" narrative
Maybe that person exists, but yeah, I'm just pulling yo...

Well first, I do largely M&A
But second, even before I moved to 95% transactional my civil matters rarely had many questions of moral culpability to them, on either side.
I think there are huge swaths of the law where moral quandaries just aren't as prevalent as the public thinks. It's been...
