This word came with a question. So I assume my post should be based around that.
Should justice be served hot or cold?
I suppose the answer would entirely depend on the crime. If someone cheated at Scrabble or ate the last slice of cake, then yes, serve that revenge up cold.
However, justice and laws become complicated with the severity of the crime. I could go on about how I feel about police brutality, and how racism is rife in the “justice” sector, but I feel like it will be something I go on further when this month ends. Its wrong and it needs to be fair.
I feel like this word brings up more questions then answers. Like what gives you the right to be a judge? Should the current justice system be scrapped and a different system formed? Should the police be better regulated? That answer is obviously yes.
I’m sorry to who chose this word. This is the most you are going to get out of me because I feel I need time to give an adequate response to the question.
How do you feel about Justice? Do you have questions about it? Is it right? Please leave comments and share this post.
Tomorrow is K for Kittens
I’ve been pondering over this for quite a while. Like, when is taking a stand worth it? When is standing up for other people justified? What is the fine line between storybook ideas of bravery and real life practicality? Maybe I’ll write a post on this as well. Humans are complicated. Human issues more so. Kittens on the other hand, not so much. :p Thanks for the follow!

Great post! You raise some very good points. I consider myself a justice-oriented person and I believe in justice …. BUT I seldom see it being served adequately. Too often people that do heinous crimes are set free way too soon, only to commit more crimes. The one that really gets me when it comes to the justice system and that needs completely overhauled is how the system handles animal cruelty cases. Nothing angers me more than when someone perpetrates abuse and cruelty on a helpless animal only to be slapped on the wrist and given nothing more than a MISDEMEANOR! Some animal cruelty charges are considered felonies but then the punishment is so lame. I just don’t get it…

I thought I knew where I stood on this issue. But as time goes by, and I see how many people are so narrow-minded, judgmental and bigoted, I also start seeing that I, too, have some issues to deal with. I’m disappointed to find that I have my own prejudices and opinions and while I get upset with other people who don’t fall into line with what I think they should be open to…maybe I need to work on my own imperfect self first. Which makes me also question what my thoughts on justice are.
Ouch! You weren’t supposed to tax my brain today, Tyler!
Let’s get on to the kittens. I know exactly where I am with kittens!

Humans are the ultimate conundrum. Truthfully I prefer puppies, but kittens will do, I suppose! 😉 Regarding today’s post, well when I see the word Justice, I think of the Major Arcana Tarot card of the same name. Justice will always be served karmically, whether we see that result on the Earth plane or not… just throwing it out there!
