An impressive defense. Not that I had the faintest doubt! Ever.

This exchange says it all. Let's guess who's the lawyer here and who is yourself:

I am so flabbergasted that you can call yourself a lawyer and make this statement with a straight face that I can barely bring myself to respond to yet another version of the statement that "might makes right"

Good luck with that lawyer. If he expresses himself "coldly and rationally" to you in informal situations, you probably need all the luck you can get.

And you are sinking lower and lower in your desperate need to bite. A real lawyer would not make such an unsubstantiated assumption of intimacy, either.
