24. Win in court? Ha ha...good one. The legalized extortion which our
justice system has become,(both civil and criminal)don't need no stinking court. All anyone has to do is tell someone, "If you don't pay me a smaller sum of money, I'll sue your ass and you'll pay the same or more to your attorneys and still run the risk of paying me anyway." It works the same way in criminal cases, where the DA piles on all kinds of charges, real and otherwise, to scare the defendant, and then offers a plea bargain "deal" on one or two of them. SCO tried the same shit by claiming they owned the code for UNIX and threatening everyone with lawsuits if they didn't settle. Heil Amerika.
