It is much easier to say I want to be an attorney than actually be informed about the process.

However, I would disagree with him on this legendary quote.

In order to prepare myself, I chose to major in criminal justice, with the intention of becoming a defense attorney.

That bulge isn’t a cell phone, calculator, or brown sugar cinnamon Pop-tarts that a typical college kid would be carrying to a 9 a.m. class. This boy closely conceals a .42 caliber pistol.
