Lawyers (as expected) say that in Henry VI, “Dick The Butcher” wanted to get rid of the lawyers because they were noble, courageous, and virtuous patriots who might stand in the way of his revolution.
Only a lawyer could twist Dick’s meaning that way.
In fact, Dick’s statement “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers” is his expression of the first thing to do in an ideal world.
I’m sure there is a noble lawyer somewhere, on some distant planet, in some parallel universe.
Yeah, not only that but who would know how much of crook lawyers are but Dick the Butcher? A crook KNOWS another crook!
