[OOC: Handwave the final with an idea of how you did if you must, but you know you want to answer the questions, come on. A big thanks to rory__gilmore who has helped me out so much with this class over the entire fake school year. Have some cookies! Anyway, work is likely to be murderous today, so probably slowplay if you want interaction. Class Info Post.]

"Welcome to your final Advanced Criminal Justice session, students!" Tick said after everyone was in the room. "People who had stuff to turn in, please do so now so you have it off of your mind."

"In just a moment, you'll have six questions of Justicey goodness. Please answer them to the best of your abilities and then you're done with my class!"

"Before you leave, though, please say a farewell to Lockheed. He'll be leaving us next week for greener pastures. He seems to claim that his work here is done, whatever that actually means."

1. On the Tricycle of Justice there are three wheels: the police, the courts, and the prisons. The front wheel supplies the powers to move and steer. The rear wheels provide balance and a place for a passenger to stand. Describe where you believe each Wheel of Justice is located on the tricycle.

2. Please write a paragraph about what Justice means to you, using at least three of the following phrases:

- drawn from the weeds
- brave like soldiers
- falling down under the pale moonlight
- like a someone broken
- stand in the wind
- free like water
- warmth of the sun
- both been shaken

Using five or more will gain extra credit.

3. What is the most important thing that you have learned about Justice this term?

Extra credit will be given to those who write their answer in the style of Dr. Seuss.

4. Former Principal Bristow was famed to use a spoon to fight for Justice. Professor Tick uses the word "spoon" as a battlecry. How would you use a utensil - or the idea of that utensil - combined with your knowledge of Justice this term?

5. Does Justice work in Fandom? Explain your answer.

6. Please write a paragraph on one of the following scenarios:

A) A marmoset steals a pie from a mouse and retreats to a tree. You are unable to reach it, no matter how you try. How will you negotiate with the tiny miscreant and/or victim? (Bear in mind that these are magical animals who can talk, of course.)

B) A criminal is decided to be innocent based upon insubstantial evidence and a possible jury bias. What can the average person do as recourse in the case of this Injustice?

I believe the police are the front wheel and drive the courts and prisons. It's not an ideal system, because it gives the police more power than the other two, but it can only be changed by the people riding it.

I believe that Justice forces us to be brave like soldiers when we are like a someone broken. When it works, we can stand in the wind and enjoy the warmth of the sun and it when it fails we will be falling down in the pale moonlight. But as long as we try to ensure Justice is served, we will be free like water. and I hate you for making me use the lyrics from that song, OMG!

Justice is quite catching, you see. Like a disease.
It takes just one person fighting to starts others fighting with ease.
THEN you have a dedicated group of friends fighting the good fight.
And serving Justice with all of their might.

4. Former Principal Bristow was famed to use a spoon to fight for Justice. Professor Tick uses the word "spoon" as a battlecry. How would you use a utensil - or the idea of that utensil - combined with your knowledge of Justice this term?

Justice is a spork; a multi-use tool that can work for everyone.

5. Does Justice work in Fandom? Explain your answer.

I believe that Justice works in Fandom in the same unique way that everything else works here; by learning to rely on each other and working together.

6. Please write a paragraph on one of the following scenarios:

B) A criminal is decided to be innocent based upon insubstantial evidence and a possible jury bias. What can the average person do as recourse in the case of this Injustice?

An average person can conduct their own investigation into the situation by violating the privacy of everyone close to them examining public records for inconsistancies. They can accuse the people they love ask questions of people involved and find evidence to raise reasonable doubt and get locked in a freezer and set on fire by the real killer take it to the police.
