Professional COMM 10/1: Justice


“Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting a bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian” - Dennis Wholey

This is an interesting quote I found. Justice is one of those strange subjects that people so often disagree about. What does justice mean to you? What do you think Wholey is trying to say here with his unique blend of humor and philosophy?

Dictionary.com defines justice as:
1. the quality of being just; righteousness, equitableness, or moral rightness: to uphold the justice of a cause.
2. rightfulness or lawfulness, as of a claim or title; justness of ground or reason: to complain with justice.
3. the moral principle determining just conduct.
