Advanced Criminal Justice, Class #6, Period 1, 01.26.06

[OOC: I will be busy at the office all morning and probably be working against a deadline in the afternoon. Fun stuff. No clue how much I'll be able to reply udirng the day so Rory has permission to go crazy with the responses if she wants. Now ready for the usual scattered replies. Class Info Post.]

The Tick was behind his desk again, looking rather more rested. Lockheed was back on his usual spot on the bookshelf. And the mun was rushing this class liek whoa!

"Hello, class! A quick announcement before we get started today. There will be a quiz next Thursday. It won't be much to worry about and it won't be heavy on details from the class thus far. It will just check your ability to reason things out in the name of Justice!"

"Today we will be looking at the flip-side of Tuesday's topic. Where there are heroes fighting for Justice, there must be villains working against it."

"Today I would like you to tell me about a villain or a villainous group from back home. If you will, please discuss with the class what he, she, or it did to get labeled as so darn villainous and whether or not they have been brought to Justice yet!"

"And if the discussion goes well today, I may even share a story about one of my arch-fiends when the mun gets home from work so be sure to check back in at the end of class. It'll be the story of a guy with a chair for a head. Come on, you know you want to hear about him!"

"Please discuss!"

The Shift Key of Justice allows us to know the boundaries of our world, and not run off without pause or punctuation. Like the laws and rules which govern our interactions with others, the shift key gives us seconds to stop, reflect, and recognize where the Fun of Originality is over-run by the Pointlessness of Linguistic Chaos.

Parker pauses. She does not have a favorite defender that she feels comfortable writing about. That kind of thing, you never know who it'll get back to.

My favorite defender of justice is fictional: Agent Lana Mully, from the Z-Cases. She is a federal agent investigating crime with her partner, Wolf Lunder, but she is also a scientist and a rationalist. I aspire to look at concrete evidence in much the way Lana Mully does, without going off on wild goose chases or getting abducted by aliens for no good reason, like her partner.
