What is your definition of justice?

Answer 1

Where the infringement of rights, or an actions against the law, is answered with the proper sanctions and remedies.

Answer 2

Justice is a tricky thing. Because a lot of people confuse it with revenge or street justice. Justice under the rule of Law and Order is balanced with Mercy. Getting the bad people off the streets and into prison or into the maximum sentence is the most important part of justice we have. sometimes bad people get cut deals and leave families of victims wondering was justice carried out. I say this to people in this situation. Look at Sammy "the Bull" and other snitches they live in their own hell or end up dead. What comes around, goes around.

Answer 3

Justice: adj.,n, v,- the meticulous process by which a crime is punished, not to be confused with vengeance, malice, kangaroo court, lynching, or just walking up and beating the teeth out of someone's mouth. Justice is wonderful...but it is not always served. And sometimes it preys on the innocent who cannot defend themselves...even with the assistance of a public defender.
