Week two: Response to question #1
This chapter presents that justice is injustice. As jesse goes back and forth between the past and present examples of injustice is being portrayed with those who are in jail. "As einstein had predicted, their souls and their futures would be completely unchanged, while the world around them had evolved and gone." The=e things that are described in jail represents how injustice the system is. Throughout this chapter justice is being portrayed as not applicable. Jesse being a defense attorney can also represent injustice because he may have to defend one who is wrong.I think the court system, those being in jail, and jesse being an defense attorney all coicides with justice and how it is not distributed.
week one : response
WEEK ONE: 1st RESPONSE- The analogy that Jesse makes of war and being a defense attorney is very appropriate. Jesse being a former veteran of the Vietnam War coincides with him now having a(n)occupation as a defense attorney. In a sense defending your country is relevant to defending those in society. One does not know why they are fighting exactly or why they are truly defending those in society, they just know that this is what they have to do and is what they have chose to do. I would be a defense attorney rather than a prosecution attorney because alot of innocent men and women go to jail because of crooked prosecutors who only care about winning and not displaying the truth.
