Terence Hallinan (born December 4, 1936) is an American attorney and politician from San Francisco, California. He is the second of six sons born to Progressive Party presidential candidate Vincent Hallinan and his wife Vivian. Hallinan was educated at the London School of Economics, University of California, Berkeley, and University of California, Hastings College of the Law. He currently works in private practice in San Francisco. ==Early life== Hallinan grew up in a 22-room mansion in Ross, CA. At age twelve Hallinan fell off his horse, fractured his skull, and spent five days stranded outside Yosemite before being rescued by helicopter. As a young man Hallinan developed, in the words of California Supreme Court Justice Raymond Peters, a “habitual and continuing resort to fisticuffs to settle personal differences.”〔(''Hallinan v. Committee of Bar Examiners'', 421 P.2d 76, 65 Cal. 2d 447, 55 Cal. Rptr. 228 (1966). )〕 Hallinan became a ward of juvenile court in 1954 when he took a case of beer from three sailors after he and his brother had run them off the road on Point Reyes and beat them.〔 The juvenile court banned Hallinan from Marin County so he had to get a job in a warehouse in Sacramento before clerking for the Longshoremen's Union in Hawaii.〔(Justice Policy Institute and Children and Family Justice Center, ''Second Chances: 100 Years of the Children's Court, Giving Kids a Chance to Make a Better Choice'' (1999). )〕 Shortly after turning eighteen Hallinan pled guilty to battery for punching the proprietor of a Lake County ski lodge. In 1957 Hallinan punched a fraternity brother who denied him admission to a private party. Hallinan was indicted in 1959 after he broke a man’s jaw during a brawl at a Greenbrae bowling alley. While at UC Berkeley Hallinan boxed for the Golden Bears and spared with Cassius Clay in the 1960 Olympic boxing team eliminations.〔 Due to a perceived skill at knockouts he went by the name “Kayo” Hallinan. Hallinan’s propensity for fistfights continued in law school. When Hallinan and his brother were picketing in San Francisco against the House Un-American Activities Committee, some of their classmates arrived to picket the Hallinans.〔 Strong words ensued and a fight was arranged in Golden Gate Park. Initially Hallinan was part of the crowd of UC Hastings student onlookers but he soon began a brawl with one of the opposing spectators. Hallinan is also known to have engaged in fistfights at a Young Democrats meeting and over a woman while at UC Hastings.〔 As a student Hallinan also became interested in nonviolent resistance. While attending the London School of Economics Hallinan was arrested with Lord Bertrand Russell during a Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament sit-down demonstration in front of the U.S. embassy.〔(Note, ''Admission to Practice Law: Civil Rights Arrests and Numerous Fist Fights Do Not Evidence the Type of Character Deficiency Which Excludes an Applicant From Admission to the Bar'', 55 CALIF. L. REV. 948 (1967). )〕 When he returned to America Hallinan joined the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee and spent the summer of 1963 in Mississippi.〔 Local authorities jailed Hallinan twice but the U.S. Attorney General and the National Council of Churches intervened to secure his release.〔 Back in San Francisco Hallinan helped organize the W.E.B. DuBois Club to support Communist Party USA.〔(Thirteenth Report ) of the California Senate Factfinding Subcommittee on Un-American Activities to the 1965 Regular Session of the California Legislature (1965).〕 In the fall of 1963 Hallinan became involved in the Ad Hoc Committee to End Discrimination and participated in sit-ins at the Sheraton Palace Hotel, Mel's Drive-In, and the Van Ness Avenue Cadillac showroom. Hallinan’s civil disobedience in the city resulted in six arrests and two separate criminal convictions.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Terence Hallinan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
