Why yes I would like a lawyer

Our 6th amendment right ensures that we get a speedy and public trial and along with that, an attorney to represent us in court. O.J. Simpson particularly enjoyed this amendment because Johnnie Cochran and the rest of his legal team got him an acquital. I think this is one of the more important amendment rights we have because very few people can represent themselves in court properly. And even though a public defender can sometimes be terrible, some representation is better than none. Heres the 6th amendment below for you to view whenever you need a reminder of your right.
