They simply note that some comments will be viewed as “cross[ing] the line from criticism to dangerous rhetoric.”

Wow. Legal opinions no longer allowed.
It's quite reminiscent of doctors not being allowed to speak out about Covid.
They have a lot to lose because they pushed the vaccine.
The key takeaways here are that the trial was definitely a sham, a hoax, and rigged; our justice system is corrupt and rigged; the judge was corrupt and highly unethical; and, that the jury was partisan and precooked. Many have observed that the trial was America’s first communist show trial.
Very nice of the Connecticut Bar to lay it all out so succinctly.
Sadly not the first show trial and definitely not the last. Trump's is certainly more mainstream but the Ross Ulbricht's trial also comes to mind, total mockery of justice, fraud and insane verdict. For better or worse sooner or later it will backfire and there will be call for revenge, America is up for a very wild ride
Let me get this straight, "some comments" are "reckless and unprofessional" but actions and behavior of a Judge are perfectly fine. The entire Bar Association in my humble opinion is acting like a backyard mob where you have to toe the line or we will think you are not fit to be lawyer , what a farce! Personally, I can't wait for the day when AI will take their jobs, it will do 100 times better service to humanity. AI can reference every case ever tried in the US history of court cases in 15 seconds flat, there will be no bias, no political affiliations, just facts.

Totally agree, but please wait until my license expires before that last part.
AI juries!
I hope you're not putting yourself at risk of being accused of "dangerous rhetoric".
We are along a road that started the first time a "hate speech" statute was declared constitutional. When I went to law school, a long time ago, the only speech that could be deemed a crime would be yelling "fire" in a crowded movie theatre. Things have changed.
Where is the hate crime?
Clockwork Orange

Marie-Thérèse Kaiser, a 27-year-old AfD politician from Rotenburg, Germany, has been convicted of inciting hatred against Afghan local workers[1]. The Verden regional court upheld a verdict requiring Kaiser to pay €6,000 in fines, which includes 100 day fines plus an additional €60[1]. The conviction stems from a social media post Kaiser made in August 2021, linking Afghan refugees to gang rapes and questioning Hamburg's acceptance of Afghan workers[1].
Kaiser's post was in response to Hamburg's mayor announcing the city would accept 200 Afghan local workers. She justified her concerns by citing statistics about Afghans' involvement in gang rapes in Germany[1]. The judge ruled that Kaiser's statements attacked human dignity and could not be protected under freedom of speech[1].
The case has gained international attention, with Elon Musk questioning the verdict on social media[1]. Kaiser plans to appeal the decision, expressing that her trust in the German legal system has been shaken[1]. She has received numerous messages of support and press inquiries following the verdict[1].

So, that's what they call 'freedom of Speech' in the US? Don't understand how 'rhetoric' can raise violence?
We are living in strange times.
The criticism for the decision against Trump isn't wrong at all.
They are covering their own asses. They all know it is wrong, they just dont want to jeopardize their careers.
