2. Because that's how it works
It was a great deal, and it brought it to an end.

Very, very smart.

A nothing charge. About as bad as spitting on the sidewalk.

Rush won this one, and the ACLU helped, I'm glad to say.

4. Someone should call in.
And ask him if his opinion of the ACLU has changed.

Or, even better, call to complain about them, but say "At least they helped you beat the rap."

9. And the charge will
be dismissed in 18 months. The same as "innocent" for all intents and purposes. $30,000? chicken feed. Even I could come up with it if it meant staying out of prison. And I am not rich, in fact I'm holding on to the middle-class by my toenails.

6. It was his only recourse. Roy Black avoided looking like the
fool. IWO they had the nuts on Rush, and Black found Florida willing to play fast and loose with the law. Just my take....:shrug:

10. Lots of "INNOCENT" people plea out by paying the piper
Our Justice system sucks. It basically has become a revenue / jobs industry.

Rush has the ability to pay no matter how "innocent" he claims to be.
