I will write...
Jun. 29th, 2004 12:03 amI'm going to write something this week, I swear. Majorly bad amounts fo work just hit me - problem with pro bono stuff? You have to do it and not get paid! How wrong is that?

But it would be a hell of a lot easier to do my public bloody duty if the bloody public weren't a lot of bloody idiots!
And on that note: It is NOT in my job description to give advice to a bloody homophobe who is worried the police are going to drag him in for assault and ABH because he beat up a 'fucking fag' and I CERTAINLY don't have to advise him on his ridiculous attempt to claim bloody PROVOCATION because the guy was a 'screaming queen and asking for it'. It isn't, screw lawyer impartiality, legal extension of the client and the right to access to legal advice - there are limits.
