Non-Sequiturs: 03.20.12

* Really, it’s never a good idea to talk to a police officer unless you are accompanied by an attorney. [Legal Blog Watch]

* The more you dive into Florida’s “stand your ground” law, the more ridiculous it gets. [Recess Appointment]

* I’m not sure it matters if the ABA asks law schools to report salary information or not. Law schools will still collect it, and it will still be just as inflated as ever.

* Freaky lego thing where the lawyer is the cocoon and the artist is the butterfly if the whole thing were in the movie Alien. [Lowering the Bar]

* The last thing you want is Jerry Sandusky in your head. [The Legal Intelligencer] (subscription)

* Watch the employers squirm when they have to explain their gender pay gap. [LexisNexis]
