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

[bugofjustice.livejournal.com]

[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. In terms of Justice Mr. Bunny seems to be something of a gray hare area: On the one hand he seems to be victimized in many circumstances. In others he gleefully attacks others. Mr. Bunny is most like someone who needs to be hit over the head with the Great Mallet of Decisiveness before his place in the Scheme of Justice is settled.

2. Being bigger than they are would make things easier to stop the puppies, as I would simply separate them by force immediately. However the language barrier would make things more difficult, as -- unless it was obvious -- it might be difficult to tell what the fight was about. Plus, their youth would argue for a certain level of tolerance and understanding. Ultimately I'd probably end up swatting them on the nose with the Rolled-Up Newspaper of Time-Out.

3. ZOMG Dirty! Justice is the patient, well-trained camel who bears the loads of Truth and Protection on its back, able to go many miles between drinks of Applause and the crunchy grass of Recognition. Vengeance is the poorly trained camel who spits the saliva of Rage in the Face of Justice and refuses to rise from the Sands of Obsession.

EC. Justice is like a blue squirrel against the Sky of Life. On Clear Days of Happiness it can't clearly be seen, but on Dark Days of Trouble it stands out clearly against the Storm Clouds of Fear and the Jagged Lightening of Wrongdoing.
