Justice, where art thou?

I’m in a catch-22 situation. With the developments of our world towards the sinister edge, now as peace loving individuals ideally what do we seek for? Is there a route to justice?

Do we hate these beastly humans to their crux and teach them a lesson, inflict on them an amplified version of all the pain and crime they’ve committed? But, undoubtedly that makes us worse than them. And, we perpetually talk about spreading love, so truly this alternative is inappropriate.

So does that mean we stand down, watch this whole melodrama and do nothing to help as if it’s a trifling matter?

Oh, how I wish there was a befitting solution.

  1. I think this has always been the predicament for many before yourself. You hear about many historical characters inflicting pain and suffering on others - only to be blamed by the story listeners later in life.."they are bad people" they say..

    I bet they also thought the following:

    "Does that mean we stand down, watch this whole melodrama and do nothing to help as if it's a trifling matter?"

    the ones who stood and watched never really made it to history books, so who are we to judge the ones who did...

    I guess what I am trying to say is that you are right Sahar, there is no right way to relay the discontempt. Whatever message you try to convey - you'll fall under either one of 2 titles: A) a criminal B) a coward.

    So, which personal message would you like to portray?
