I'm tired of left-wing groups like the ABA ruining people's lives.

True story, funny story, I was in a firm where they encouraged us to be members of and paid our dues for things like the ABA. I resigned after 1 year because I simply disagree with almost any position or action they take.

20 years later, I'm just fine without them.

frick the ABA.

TRUMP hates when men cry in a formal setting, but hopefully he makes an exception here. Not everyone can be Alpha and fight back with an evil twinkle in their eye and a smile (TRUMP) or with righteous indignation (Kavanaugh).

It takes all types to MAGA - even men who cry.

Lawyers like lots and lots of laws and regulations for them to interpret and argue.

Do the math (regarding their political leanings).

Preach it brother. Those fricks on the executive board are to the left of Che Guevara when you come down to it. I kid you not. I lasted a little longer than you with my membership. I actually got the impetus to change when a doctor friend of mine told me that most practicing physicians do not belong to the AMA. So I thought why waste the money when I find most of their positions to be counter productive to a functioning legal system.

I refused to join ABA or participate in my first firm's United Way basically mandatory annual drive, and I deselect my state bar's "charity" shite. I'll give my money to people I deem worthy.

I was a member of the ABA for a while. But, their CONSTANT emailing me with useless CLEs and ideas to get "woke" made me not renew.

Their judicial rating process is a shell of what it once was and has been boiled down to nothing but political hackery. They stack the rating committees with far left-wing reviewers and then claim their ratings are flawless.

I much prefer the Federal Bar Association and local, smaller organizations. I'll never join the ABA again.

Their coach, Bill Van Breda Kolff, got into the Sports Hall Of Shane for getting four techs in a single game.

They made sure to note that two techs is normally an ejection.

The AMA is just as bad. They declared guns an epidemic.
And they put all kinds of stupid stuff on verbal patient pre-op questions that a lot of nurses omit.
I have a lot of fun with that.
Me: "You forgot to ask me if I suffer from spousal abuse."
Nurse: 'OK! Do you suffer from spousal abuse?"
Me: 'Yes.'

frick the ABA. Those bastards called me every year to join after I graduated and passed the bar for at least 10 years.

I guess after my repeatedly blistering their arse over why I refused to join, they finally got the hint.
