Without law we have anarchy, we have the devil stalking the earth, picking us off one by one, the weak and strong alike. We are all vulnerable at times. It is not only justice; in the end it is survival itself.
Without law, who will protect the mother and child who are tomorrow's strength? Who will protect the geniuses of the mind, the inventor, the artist who enriches the world but has not the power of money or physical ability to defend himself? Who will protect the wise who are old, and might fall victim to the powerful and foolish?
Indeed who will protect the strong from themselves?
— “Farriers’ Lane” by Anne Perry
Just awesome, donna! Thanks.
I don’t think anyone here is against law
We’re against itchy finger cops and cya mode
Suspicious of it
We may yet be proved wrong
Questioning authority is not indicative of preferring anarchy
Put me on record opposing anarchy
