     They say it's public safety, but it so that they can control people through their lawyers, and also so that they can control the evolution of law by controlling who can argue, what can be argued, and how it can be argued.

     It's really a bizarre thing. It's kinda like being in a cult. There are a litany of rules that have to be followed and if you don't follow them to the T, that's your license. And not all of it is bright line btw, and some of it is downright fucked. A lot of lawyers are egotistical about being lawyers, so they become the ultimate cultist, and will justify it at every turn.
     
     I get why a lawyer should get his licensed yanked of he embezzles his clients money, but making us snitch on each other or controlling speech in out of court advocacy is bullshit. If the client can say it as a pro per, why can't I? (I get in court speech and decorum, but that also applies to pro pers).
