"Practicing law without qualifications" is almost as vague as "legal advice" -- where applied to public statements, it is just as vague. Where does one draw the line between statements like "taking another person's item without permission is theft" and those like "John Smith, if you dance the Macarena before killing Judy Doe, you can not be found guilty of murder"? Where does one draw the line between sending an analysis (not particular to a given person or action) to a mailing list and representing someone else in court?
