LAWYERS ARE LIARS

On Thursday the State of Texas executed Kenneth Mosley, for the 1997 murder of a Garland police officer. Officer David Moore, a 10-year police veteran and father of three, responded to a 911 call placed by a bank employee who recognized Mosley as the man who robbed that bank a month earlier.

Mosley was standing in line when Moore approached and asked to talk to him. Instantly, Mosley pulled out a gun and shot the officer four times.

His attorneys contended that the murder was accidental, insisting that THE GUN WENT OFF FIVE TIMES as Mosley was trying to give himself up.

That contention constitutes more PROOF THAT THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LAWLYER AND A LIAR IS THE SPELLING.

Accidentally went off five times? How can anyone keep a straight face while making an absurd statement like that? A gun can discharge accidentally once. There is a remote possibility that it can discharge twice. But three, four, five times? Come on, let’s get real.

It never fails to amaze me when time after time lawyers, including the most prominent ones, blurt out blatant lies about their clients to the media. But then, that’s what they get paid to do.
