I thought the question was, "Is the thread poster a lawyer"? To which I replied, "I have no idea. Do you?"

Also too, I answered your second question (OK to be fair it was rather cryptic) but apparently you would rather ignore that part.

Have a nice evening.

be supplying the extraneous apostrophes and extra letters as part of the process?

Honestly, that “joke” sounds like something old people send when they learn how to use email.

at the expense of an entire profession.

I recommend you up your game and move on to ethnic humor.

Because there's more of them and you don't feel as bad when they die.

On edit: A lawyer told me this joke, although I know I'll still get flamed.

Some folks feel better about themselves by pointing out imagined flaws in others.
By trying to bring others down they think they elevate themselves.

Sad.

Lawyers fight for us and protect our rights, they never do anything wrong and are always fighting for the citizens.

Sometime I say and do things I shouldn’t, probably got that from spending to much time in the military.

I didn’t mean to insult anyone on D U.
