When a society's justice system breaks down, the society collapses.
When justice is corrupted, the society devolves into chaos.
The image of the masked lady of justice holding the scales is evocative: justice must be blind.
When people truly believe that they cannot get justice within the law, chaos inevitably ensues as law-breaking becomes commonplace - because there is no justice.
If "Equal justice under the law" means anything in this context, nothing short of a two-year $25-40 million Special Counsel investigation - the kind that runs 675 days, entailing 19 lawyers, assisted by 40 FBI agents, intelligence analysts, forensic accountants, and other professional staff, where 42 people are interrogated or are summoned before a grand jury, with 2,800 subpoenas issued, 500 search warrants executed, with 500 witnesses and 13 requests to foreign governments for information - nothing short of that would constitute equal justice under the law.
When there is no equal justice under the law, a society degrades into a Sodom.
There must be justice for Jussie Smollett, for Kim Foxx, and thus for our society.
