Yeah, the idea is that lawyers are the guardians of law and order, so killing them spreads chaos and makes tyranny easy. That’s why I quoted it here in response to that quotation from a Trump supporter about the need to “drain the swamp of judges”. It’s precisely the same statement, for precisely the same reason, made by a real, live, contemporary person, instead of a Shakespearean villain in 16th century England.
