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.
WEEK TWO RESPONSE: Q1. 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 two I think the ideas about justice that are presented in this chapter is justice is never truly served because like Jesse said life is like a war. " There are seventy - five wars going on in this world right now.."(vea.p63)If there are wars going on 24/7 when is there even time to think about justice.I think the point Jesse made about war ties greatly in to justice because how can justice be severed is the world is a war. Also most of this chapter is set in jail,which shows jail is not showing justice for anyone because jail doesn't rehabilitate people and change so the can be better. its just a place where they are looked away ,and that defiantly does show any type of justice.
week one QUESTION 1: THE analogy Jesse made between working as a defense lawyer and war was very appropriate.With him being a veteran from the Vietnam war it was typical for him to compare his job a defense attorney to war. the comparison was very appropriate because as describe in the text the work of a defense attorney is grimy like war. I would be a defense attorney because i want to keep people out of jail and that is what they do. i would also like to be a defense attorney because they make more money then a prosecution attorney
