Often times, i find that The Cruciable is comparable to American society. We want justice by any means, even if the accused who is innocent is declared guilty. All we want is a sense of security at the expense of others
I agree with Seneca. People today don't even care if we actually have justice or not. We just want to feel secure in a way by seeing other people die from the crimes 'they have committed.'
i completely disagree, i believe that statement simply contradicted itself.To declare someone guilty although innocent for a sense of security is injustice. Moreover, when stated that "we want justice by any means" if those means are immoral then the conclusion of justice supposedly being served is corrupted by unfair acts.

ReplyDeleteIsn't it that we as people just want to know that the person who has done something "wrong" is punished no matter if it was a big crime or little .
ReplyDeleteThere's also the other end of the spectrum, where guilty people go free because of their status or previous engagements.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I mean in our society we want that security. But as anna said sometimes the guilty are sent as free. The government isnt necessarily perfect.
ReplyDeletewhat about innocent until proven guilty?
ReplyDeleteWell in many places, it's really guilty until proven innocent, especially with minorities and major vigilantes
