DC Lawyers – Show Solidarity for Our Colleagues in Pakistan

I rarely discuss politics here, but the ABA’s planned rally to show solidarity for our colleagues in Pakistan is not an issue of politics, but law – and what lawyers are sometimes called upon to do in order to preserve the law. In our own lives as lawyers, few of us will ever experience more than ridicule, perhaps a contempt charge, for our own efforts to enforce the law. The very least we can do, then is show support for those lawyers across the world who are doing just that.

The rally will be held on November 14, 11:30 in front of the the Supreme Court in Washington D.C. For more details, visit rally. To all fellow bloggers located in the DC area, please make a point of posting this information at your website because as of today (11/11/07), I don’t see any information about this at the DC Bar website, which means that many DC Bar members may not learn about it.
