Illinois Bar Association,info???

Q: I'm not so sure. In fact, I'm coming down on the Illinois Bar Association's side on this one. Make no mistake, my Brothers and Sisters: as stated in The White Man's Bible, should the Jewish Occupied Governments of the world use force to violate our right to freely practice our religion; to peacefully assemble; to peacefully organize; to distribute our publications; to use mails and any other prerogative in promoting and expanding our legal religious organization and the full practice of our religion, then we have every right to declare them as open criminals violating the Constitution and the highest law of the land. They then obviously are the criminals, and we can treat them like the criminal dogs they are and take the law into our own hands. We hope that this day doesn't come, but should it happen, it will be clear from events and expressly stated either by myself or by my successors.

A: I had not come across this little tirade from Matt Hale before. It would indeed appear that Hale advocates "taking the law into his own hands" if he deems it necessary, which is contrary to everything a lawyer is supposed to stand for. That statement may be one of the "other reasons" I speculated about besides Hale's racism and anti-Semitism as possible reasons for the Illinois Bar Association's rejection of Hale's application. If Hale's stupid enough to put such things on a web site accessible to anyone, then what other writings of his may have been placed into evidence for his application to the Bar? Which just goes to show that even graduating from law school and passing the bar exam does not guarantee that someone actually understands the "highest law of the land." One wonders what Hale was doing during his years in law school that he would make such statements.

Discuss It!
