Advanced Criminal Justice, Class 8: Quiz 1, Period 1, 02.02.06

[OOC: Quiz! For those not in the know, Tick's quizzes deal in general knowledge, hypothetical situations, and metaphor. Big shock, isn't it? Have fun. Please get them done by Saturday, but I'll accept any turned in before next Tuesday. All good? Good. Class Info Post.]

The Tick was standing by his desk when the class walked in. Lockheed was back in his usual spot, holding a cup of soup and slurping loudly at random moments. He of course kept this up until the last person handed in their quiz.

"Welcome, class! Congratulations on surviving after Tuesday's class. Today you have your first quiz for Justice this semester! Hopefully Karma is smiling at us in earnest and you'll all do just fine on the quiz and return safely to class next Tuesday. Good luck!"

Tick then handed out the quizzes.

1. Bugs Bunny: What is his deal, in terms of Justice?

2. Imagine two puppies quarrelling. Would your usual methods of negotiation/force to stop the fight still be applied? How would things change?

3. Explain the difference between Vengence and Justice with a metaphor involving the common farm animal of your choice.

EC. Please write a brief descriptive paragraph using a comparison between Justice, squirrels and the color blue.

1. Bugs Bunny is a vigilante. He is clearly trying to enforce what he believes are society's morals and laws, but does so in a haphazard and dangerous fashion without consideration for innocent bystanders or the laws of physics.

2. No, they wouldn't apply, because the puppies are (presumably) not capable of reason or higher thought after all, it's not as if they're cats . In that case, I would find something to distract them, or pull them apart if I knew they weren't going to bite me. I also might be willing to let them fight it out, because fights for dominance are natural in the puppy world.

3. Vengeance is a wolf that attacks the sheep of Justice, eating away until the flock no longer exists.

EC: Blue is one of the three primary colors from which all other colors are made (except in light, which uses magenta, cyan, and amber through additive color synthesis). Squirrels, on the other hand, very seldom make anything other than little squirrels and can't be said to do anything strictly useful. Justice is much more like the color blue than it is like a squirrel because it is the basis for having order in society and our system of laws and does not make other little squirrels.


Sam may have gotten a little confused about the extra credit question, but the metaphor had made her head hurt.
