Someone mentioned Ken Cuccinelli about 80 posts upthread (I had to play catch-up). He just popped up again:

Virginia attorneys start firm to defend good guys with guns

Former Virginia attorney general and 2013 gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli has created a law firm to “defend those who defend themselves.”

The Virginia Self Defense Law firm is dedicated to providing legal representation to law-abiding gun owners who use their firearm in self-defense or find themselves being harassed by law enforcement for exercising their constitutional right to keep and bear arms.

Essentially, the way the firm works is that gun owners can keep the firm on retainer for less than $10 per month, which covers the cost of all legal fees related to the case except for expert witnesses and bail money (if applicable).

“A legal retainer with Virginia Self Defense Law costs as little as $8.33 a month — less than half the cost of a hunting license,” states the website. “Don’t be a victim! Don’t let these realities become your family’s fiscal nightmare!”

For Cuccinelli and his partners, the service is there to prevent gun owners from going bankrupt due to the high costs associated with fighting for one’s 2A rights when they are challenged in court.

Monthly retainer fees for in case a CCW permit holder has to shoot someone. That smells fishy to me.
