When will the legal system
When will the legal system take a stand and discipline lawyers who put forward ignorant and oppressive arguments? While it may have been the defendant words ("He said the sex was consensual.

Lawyers shouldn be able to say nonsense like this without consequences from the bar.

More a survival story than a creation tale, Federal Express was down to its last $5,000 back in 1974 after rising fuel costs wiped out the roughly $100 million on which the company had been founded. Without enough cash left to fund the operation of his company's air fleet, Fed Ex founder Fred Smith took the money to Vegas and risked it all at the blackjack tables. He left town with $32,000 enough to keep his company in business while he scrambled to secure a sizeable loan.
