He Fouqkt The Law

摘要

Law is our language of natural justice which we use to speak for the strong and the weak. Part of its purpose is to protect us from the power of the state and the caprice of the police. The value of law beyond price is that it applies to everyone regardless of position or riches.Occasionally a case is decided which on its face is straightforward yet within the judgment it shows and shines a philosophical gem. A simple claim for a declaration on registration of bees could raise an issue ofconstitutional importance. It can at best show the court in action against an anarchic threat of abuse of the law by a beekeeper. No court in a democratic society could afford to ignore such highfalutin words lest they become deeds.
