Re: Can justice be served through injustice? (long)

The short answer is a big "NO." No justice can be served through injustice. Yes, justice may be served in some individual cases, but in a long run, justice via injustice hurts human race as a whole. Sooner or later, everyone would just take things into their own hands and start to impose their own version of "justice." It is a sure way leading to chaos.
It's true that some bad guys will slip through some legal crack, but to the society as a whole, it is not a bad thing.
What is bad is what we do as a nation. Internally, we at least try to protect liberty and rights etc; externally, we are the big bully. If you step outside of America, you will find very few people who like America. It is simply because we do things - horrible things that are only justified by our own greed rather than for the great human cause.
For the supporters of Ron Paul, the great American that I come to admire, have you ever read/heard what he said?

In reality, we are no more civilized than we were 1000 years ago.
