Yes, of course. When Simon says, "Stand on one foot.", you stand on one foot.

My goal is not to fix the US legal system. I personally believe that having enough money is a greater factor in achieving a court victory than being technically correct or ethically sound. Therefore, I also believe it is pointless to speculate upon what the courts might decide as a guide for ethical behavior.

The only way to always win in court is to never be sued (or arrested).
