MLK Day 2014: A Call To Action

How are you celebrating America's modern civil rights hero?  I am celebrating this Martin Luther King Jr. Day by joining my voice with the chorus who recognize the “War on Drugs” is a racist construct that must be concluded for the sake of our nation's conscience and our continued freedom.  Many are recognizing the decades-old war on drugs as a racist conspiracy designed to unfairly incarcerate African American men, to profit government agencies via a silent and secret tax, and to funnel blood money to corporate America.   In an article in the Huffington Post, Dylan Ratigan and Russell Simmons wrote, “A...

Dealing With A Christmas Party DUI Charge

'Tis the season for Christmas parties and Christmas party DUI arrests.  If you are arrested for a Christmas party DUI you may be thinking, "What do I do now?"  Being arrested for DUI is a frightening and traumatic experience.  Our clients often struggle to deal with the stigma and shame associated with a DUI arrest.  Many strong people are brought to tears when telling a loved-one about their arrest.  Complicating matters is a palpable sense that everything is spinning out of control.  Charles Rowland and the staff at DaytonDUI have been helping people through this process for over seventeen years.  We want to...

Why Do They Call It Moonshine?Moonshine is as American as apple pie.  Prohibition did not stop people from wanting alcohol.  Prohibition did not stop people from wanting money.  Put those two desires together and you have the illegal production of alcohol called "moonshining."  "Moonshiners" is a term used for people who did their production at night to avoid the government agents (G-Men) and Treasury Agents (T-Men) who patrolled the hills of Appalachia looking to stop production of illegal hootch.Production of moonshine illegal alcohol required the use of stills.  The stills were heated by fires and produced tell-tale smells, sounds and...

The Trial Attorney Creed (from Don Quixote)

“It is not the responsibility of knights errant to discover whether the afflicted, the enchained and the oppressed whom they encounter on the road are reduced to these circumstances and suffer this distress for their vices, or for their virtues: the knight's sole responsibility is to succour them as people in need, having eyes only for their sufferings, not for their misdeeds.” ― Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote...
