True story: existentialism and the law as quoted from Chief Justice Earl Warren.

When I was in college one of my roomates started a fire in our apartment (he was a sociopath-lol-true!). And not my friend. I had nothing to do with it, but I was the only one sued.

The apartment building's owners brought in a full cadre of big lawyers and I had a public defender who had just graduated from Santa Clara law school. They are near the bottom of law schools.

The judge took one look at the case, the cadre of big time lawyers and dismissed the case quoting Earl Warrren: In the words of the great Earl Warren: "it does not matter if it is the law, it matters if it is just".

He said that! How could I ever forget those words.
