physics, there is a law against being really mean to people. It is called harrassment.

On the other hand, looking for justice in the legal system (where I spend my day job) is fruitless. I call it the Criminal Injustice system anymore.

I am reminded of words written several thousand years ago...

The kind man does something,
yet something remains undone.
The just man does something,
and leaves many things to be done.
The moral man does something,
and when no one responds
he rolls up his sleeves and uses force.

When the Tao is lost, there is goodness.
When goodness is lost, there is morality.
When morality is lost, there is ritual.
Ritual is the husk of true faith,
the beginning of chaos.

~Lao Tzu
