Justice

Justice Try to picture this scene: your favorite movie stare is caught with drugs on his person after being stopped by the police. Before even being take to trial, your celebrity is treated as if he didn’t do a thing. The trial comes around and because of his status as an actor the charges are dropped. Now, this is obviously not fair if we keep in mind the celebrity was 100% guilty of the accused crime. Merely because the movie star hat copious amounts of money and influence on the public, fairness was set aside. Justice is said to be blind. Unfortunately in many cases, it simply looks only to whom the person is. As I mentioned before justice, although not always being so, should be blind. The law cannot be an emotional affair and must stay true to itself. A starving boy steals a loaf of bread; A common thief steals your television set. Both of these occurrences should be treated in the same way, regardless of circumstances. Call me cold and cruel, it doesn’t matter when it comes down to obeying the “letter of the law”. How can we have a fair society if we peek under the blindfold of justice to bestow should, law, justice, man, king, blind, way, trial, treated, strength, steals, since, set, said, public, power, one, influence, hand, government, go, fair, even, disobedience, creon, comes, civil, change, celebrity, case, believes, because, ‘antigone’, within, wisdom
