The Street Lawyer Part I

Mike did not believe DeVon  Hardy would kill them because all he was doing was threatening them and when he let out shots he would aim above their heads and during the time they were all held up DeVon did not talk all he did was sit there in silence. When Mike asked DeVon he would tell them anything, he did not ask for anything the only thing he really asked for was dinner and even then he did not harm any of the lawyers that were in the room, the only “harm” was rope burn from the rope around their wrist.

Clair and Mike do not have the best relationship, they do not really talk all they do pretty much share a bed every night. Their marriage is rocky because of that lack of conversation and because of their lack of conversation they do not really get along, they do not go on trips with each other or have time for each other. I do not think that, due to the fact that they no longer talk, Mike is contemplating to quit his job at the firm. I think it is because he sees that after what happened in the firm with Mister he can no longer "live" for his work and only his work. He is more into trying to spend time with his wife, Clair, and help out with the homeless people shelter.

Mike sees it fit because if it was a school or a theater then innocent people might have been hurt or worse. Instead of children or anyone else being held at gun point it was 8 lawyer that were held at gun point. To have men that could handle more of the pressure of a gun being pointed to their head while children or teenagers would be freaking out or instigating the shooter or there would be a panic and chaos.
