    Judge Baskin: “Once again, Mr Bundy thinks he can simply say he does not need to be in court. Again, that is not how the rule of law works in this country.”

    Yeah, don’t you know that you’re supposed to file innumerable motions, continuances, and appeals, so that you never actually have to appear? Also, if you run for president, you can just do whatever you want.

          I’ve always found it comical lawyers and doctors want thousands of dollars in payment, with no guarantee of success, in the times your life literally depends on it

            Maybe that is because of this:

            in the times your life literally depends on it

            What are you gonna do, tell the doctor mid-heart-attack you don’t want his services?

            Oh, but make sure you call your insurance ahead of time to make sure he’s in network. And then shop around to make sure he’s the lowest priced one, too- can’t have your insurance spending too much on you, right?
