Was watching this video and it clicked that you could be fucked on a lie and can’t do shit but go to jail and wait for a judge - https://youtu.be/-4D5V19zqFc

I knew this before, but this video brought it home. Paraplegic accused of kicking down a door and dumbass cops not doing anything “but their jobs”, no common sense at all.

    I actually tried calling a few lawyers to establish myself with them before it’s needed, but none of the lawyers I talked to were interested. they all told me to just call them if I get arrested or something else happens. 🤷

      Yeah, I had the same thing. They were basically like call us back when you actually have legal problems.

      I think they just don’t want the accounting headache of reporting thousands of small retainers for no real purpose.
