The only thing worse than a lawyer is an armed lawyer, and the NYT reports that the latest fashionable craze among wealthy Manhattan professionals is to hit the gun range.
Michael Kim, a partner of the law firm Kobre & Kim LLP says:
"We do very aggressive litigation and trial work... So we prefer an activity that dovetails nicely with that aggressive culture, and hitting a little white ball on the greens doesn't do much for us."
Chip Brian, president of Comtex News Network Inc., says:
"At the end of the day, it's all about getting to know your clients better... and a shooting trip is one of the most unique ways to do that... There's a huge difference in taking clients out to dinner, with nice music playing in the background, as opposed to taking them to a sporting event, which is much more exciting... A shooting trip takes that to the next level - it really makes a lasting impression."

It's called the guy with the gun idea, the fact is most of the lawyers in that part of the country work for gang-land-guys many from mexico and other places where drug deals happen all day long, so using a big time MG is just part of the job. oh yes many judges also have MG And apc's to come to work, normal in a third world system.
