mixeduppup Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I've found out more about laws in this forum then i have in my own real life experiences and i think that's just down the the fact that most other people have no idea about the law either.

Salukifan Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Thanks but you don't need to give me examples - I've actually had real life experience of standing in court and running such arguments before a judge. And you're still wrong - the law does not say you can use equal force. It allows you to use a reasonable response to prevent harm/ death. Gold Giving a lawyer a lesson in law was really quite funny! Tralee may like to convey the impression he has legal qualifications but to the best of my knowledge that's not the case. Anyone can represent themselves in court.

It can be. We gave the Ranger and the City Council Lawyers a lesson they won't forget. Lawyers are not God and some are not Saints. They also get things wrong, they're not exempt from human failings.

Ignorance is no excuse If you don't know you don't know. if people want you to follow the law then they should probably make it more accessible to you. Not everyone is going to spend their days trawling through legislations and acts to see if what they are doing is lawful or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tralee Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) The Law is like my Job. It interferes with my lifestyle. :laugh: Let's not list all the anachronistic laws that have been repealed because they were proven to be damaging. Divorce, child custody, abortion, homosexuality, need I go on? And they want to call us ignorant. The lack of humility beggars belief really.

So let me see, if you have friends who are lawyers you are qualified to teach law? So since I know Danois and Haredown by default I will absorb their law knowledge and be good enough to teach law, sweeeeeeeeeet! :rofl: Since I have already taught courses at uni it should be even easier for me than you, I'm going to make some calls tomorrow, teaching law here I come!

I don't have time to sit and read through then memorize the companion animals act. If they want us to obey obscure laws they need to provide signage as I won't be carrying the act around in my pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
