Arbitrators of Justice
"Those who break the law to uphold the law, uphold nothing."-not sure who said this before as went looking online for a quote..until I find out who I'm taking credit for it :P I am reminded of this fact everyday when I see the truth of our equality of citizens. That certain figures within our society are allowed to break laws and suffer no real penalties for their crimes. Police officers are allowed to speed and cause accidents; but do they get in trouble for their actions, rarely. I call that unjust and perhaps I'm wrong or perhaps I'm right. I also don't think it's right that cop's word is considered stronger in a court of law then my own. Our words in a truly equal society should share the same weight. But that is not the case. And that's one of many ways our laws are not just and fair or truly about equality. But I could go on forever on this matter. But I'll end by again typing, "Those who break the law to uphold the law, uphold nothing."
