    No. Justice would not be him in a cell getting 3 square meals a day. Justice would be him broke and alone, trying to survive out on the streets without any of the social services that he and his ilk are ripping away from people right now. Justice would be him getting by on what he can fish out of the dumpsters behind his favorite fast food joints.

      I think you’re conflating justice with karma, and in that sense you aren’t wrong. Cosmic justice would be as you described, but that’s not the pillar upon which civilization is founded. Justice is a function of society where humans try to impose a sense of fairness and order. Justice is a consistent and dispassionate. We tend to confuse justice with vengeance, and it’s one of several critical causes of our current societal collapse.

      That would be comeuppance… justice would be him just jailed… I on the other hand care little for justice I am tired of “they go low we go high” mentality… they go low I say you knee them in the face! Fucking cut all his funds and take a fucking thumb for good measure.
