    wow, you actually came back for more? You are proving my point about revealing yourself.

    “Better lawyer on retainer” — You see, if this is true, it means you have probably have criminal legal proceedings to deal with or family law issues. The vast majority of lawyers who do civil work (meaning non criminal law, not polite) charge an hourly rate as work is performed (or in the case of personal injury, a contingency fee arrangement) and do not require an up front retainer.

    Generally speaking, The lawyers who require a retainer are the ones who work on criminal cases or family law issues. The up front retainer is needed because those practice areas tend to attract deadbeat clients who don’t pay after the fact, so the lawyer needs to get it up front. I hope you hired a good one. And that person is almost certainly better than I am at criminal and family law because I do civil law.

    I already apologized to @raining threes about the issue as I'm part of the problem. Maybe all white nationalists need is an apology from people like us because it seems like raining threes ceassed mentioning the issue. Maybe the issue is resolved for him.

    Is that a correct assessment @raining threes ?

    As a brown person myself I’m not apologizing for my existence or that I was born and continue to live in America.

    I’m not trying to troll raining threes. I do want to hear why they think this is an issue.

    I think they're worried about a dissolution of American cultural identity as we integrate more and more "ethnic" people from other countries. "More brown" is, to them, a literal visual marker for this trend. They associate skin color with an otherness to be feared.

    And they probably wouldn't disagree that the above sentiment is a kind of racism. This is from a conversation I had with them on here a few years back:

    Raining Threes is part of the uneducated problem in this country.

    So scared and afraid of a skin color - when we are all the same on the inside.

    Just sad.

    Does your lawyer have a soul? Or is that part of the retainter? How much extra do you put down for a soul retainer?
