I know, right? Even the side we're browbeaten into believing is 'good' has no respect for the law. And in a wonderful bit of irony, if the dead lawyer had had a gun in his desk, we would've been spared the rest of the film.

...and the lawyer would have been hailed a hero for taking down a gunman and saving the lives of everyone in the office.
