I've seen for sale in mercados T-shirts that say 'Comemos los Ricos' and 'Comemos los Güeros' - 'Let's eat the rich' and 'Let's eat the Blondes/Whitey' .... funny to some perhaps, but definitely in bad taste imho and almost certainly illegal, as it should be.

Shakespeare had a character say 'first we kill all the lawyers' in the context of a play, it was i believe topical to the politics of his day ... take it out of that context and apply it generally, and it becomes useless and ignorant.

The most savage condemnation i've ever heard of particular lawyers came [in private] from the one of whom i spoke - also the highest praise of particular others ... the man has my respect completely, and by extension, so do other quality players in his profession .... three or four years ago i was insisting he take on one thing, he refused, saying 'no, this other guy is better, it's his specialty' ... it wasn't because he didn't have the time, and he was right, i realised later.
