O.J Simpson’s lawyers should take note. The govt never told him it was illegal to take people hostage and rob them at gun point. That kind of class was never offered at USC.
And I’m sure Hitler received no training on how it was wrong to kill 6 million jews.
Filner may have a point here.

“He is disabled….”

So now if some citizen gets caught shoplifting from a store can they use the “I didn’t know because the government never trained me” excuse?

As a hard core cynic I am greatly amused by Filthy Filner’s antics and at the same time disgusted with the legion of idiot voters who put world class creeps like this in public office ad nauseum. It always gets back to the same problem, the existential problem of any democracy. The ruling class are cunning, unscrupulous, highly ambitious, well educated, intelligent (relatively speaking) highly organized and manipulative. The voters are ignorant, gullible, disorganized, complacent, distracted and often just plain stupid.

The alleged virtues of the common folk are largely a myth and every election proves it.

I saw that yesterday.

If ever there was a statement worthy of both laughter and tears, Filner’s attorney provided it.

He is disabled…..turned himself in for treatment…..there is a judge and a court out there….his argument could prevail!
