I am no longer on the list. My "Policeman Inside" broke out. He won't let me be associated with silly salad talk, mission orientation, and Levi-Smithing. ~Aimee

Criminal defense has already been criminalized in hard to enforce laws such as the drug laws, with a various lawyers being busted on charges of providing competent and relevant defense for the accused.
Government propaganda is already appearing to justify such punishment. While channel surfing I saw a fictional show about a bunch of lawyers who are in danger of being disbarred for taking drug traffickers as clients, and they are suffering orgasms of liberal guilt about how much they deserve punishment for accepting such terrible clients. Presumably it is still OK for the moment to defend rapists and murderers.
