Have you ever attacked a person? Like emotionally? So emotionally that you needed a criminal defense lawyer? How about doing that in one shot. Like drive to a random city, find someone you've never met before, and say something so emotionally striking that you actually get taken to court over it. I'm not sure if that's possible. Try it. Drive to Pittsburgh, roll down your window and just let every repressed emotion out onto the first person you see. If you end up at a Pittsburgh Criminal Defense Law Office, let me know.
That is the great thing about language, you can attack people with it all day and you'll never go to jail for it. (Well, at least if you're not married to the person, or if they're not your kid, or if they don't work for you, etc.)
Of course, while you may not get put in jail for trash talking people, and you may never need a criminal defense lawyer, you may still get the crud beat out of you. In fact I'm pretty confident if you run your mouth long enough, in enough places you're going to pay for it. Maybe not in jail, but somewhere nonetheless.
