Oh, no, I get that the preschool-running fuckup is the politician. And I understand resentment against career politicians. I often, though not always, share it.
What I don't get is the inclusion of lawyers in your comment when there's no indication that the fuckup in question is a lawyer or former lawyer. Maybe he is, but it wasn't in his bio on the House page and I didn't find him in the Arkansas Bar Association's "find a lawyer" database. Thus, your ire at lawyers seemed to come out of left field here.
Maybe it's because I am a lawyer, but I think it's a shitty comment that lumps me into a group with this asshat (which you've done by implication, even if that was not your intent).
Here's the context for your comment:
Asshat Harris, before his politics job, had job A. He is now a politician, which is job B. Many people who have job B previously had job C, lawyering.
And so here's what your comment implies:
Because somebody with job A got job B and is a completely horrible shitbag, we should stop giving job B to people who have job C because we all agree people who have job C and people who don't voluntarily leave job B are terrible).
Your dig at lawyers in general had no bearing on this situation. Heck, it makes more sense to talk about how much you hate all those preschool owners, and can't imagine why anyone would elect someone who ran a preschool to office.
What I don't get is electing a person to public office when the person has no idea how to carry out the function of that office. Ideally, when I'm sick, I go see a doctor who trained in medicine that works...I don't go to some weirdo homeopath. When I'm having shared-drive issues, I call IT. I don't call sales. When I'm electing someone to a public office that creates law, I'd like her to know how to do that. If she's not a lawyer then I'd like to know what lawyer she trusts, or what lawyer she's going to ask for legal advice when it comes to examining legal issues.
Many politicians tend to be lawyers because lawyers have some familiarity with how laws work, and it's nice to have someone doing a job who knows (functionally) how to do it. It's not because lawyers go into politics. It's because people who want to do politics go into law.
