Chemical Spill and Opportunistic Lawyers

A truck near my house tipped over this morning, spilling some monomethylamine on the ground because it was parked on unstable and ill-maintained concrete in a residential area. Around 2 PM, I saw a lawyer ambulance-chaser ad by one Michael Hingle on the air, only hours after the spill! That stupid opportunistic tasteless fuckhead. I knew lawyers had no sense of ethics, but this is ridiculous!

Where did you hear the ad? on the TV or Radio? I don't think the lawyer would have control over when the ad is played. It's the network that arranges the ads. It could have been a coincidence.

On the telly. It had clear and unmistakeable references to the chemical spill (which now is estimated at 5 gallons total) within the ad itself only a few hours after it happened. needless to say I almost blew all my gaskets as my sense of ethics was violated like a cheap whore...

I see. It might have been a coincidence. If it was not the lawyer is obviously a scumbag with no sense of decency or respect.

Something tells me that lack of ethics in lawyers is not a phenomena localized in the Lousiana area....

No, but we do pride ourselves on being on the bleeding edge of unethicalness. We're No 1 damnit!

Yet you're located deep within the ultra-religious bible belt. Oh, the delicious irony!
