of watching the movie "Law Abiding Citizen" / Chen'er
When justice is reluctantly put on a "cruel" mask and exists openly, many tragedies that could have been avoided are performed one after another. The law cannot give justice to the soul, so we can only seek this kind of "justice" that can be comforted by our own weak strength. Even if the method adopted is so brutal and so devoid of people's hearts.
I watched the American movie "Law Abiding Citizen" in the afternoon of the weekend, and I sighed infinitely. Clyde could have had a happy life with a beautiful wife and lovely daughter. But he lost everything when two thugs broke into his home and raped and murdered his wife and daughter without getting the punishment they deserved under the laws of the United States. Including the most important "conscience" of human nature, he used his profession for ten years to create a perfect revenge plan. He wants to use his power to avenge those vicious thugs and the entire government and American law wearing the mask of "justice". But how can the strength of an individual overcome the impregnable laws of the whole country, so in the end, he failed, and at the last minute, the whole plan and the entire "confrontation" of his life were destroyed. The raging fire at the end of the film seems to herald Clyde's inner anger. Burning so vigorously, but burning so helplessly. . .
Clyde is guilty of "justice" law, and he is also a thug. He hurt innocent people to achieve his purpose. As for "human feelings", he is worthy of sympathy, and even a role like him is worthy of reflection. People are not born to be "thugs". When they can't get the balance of their minds in the social environment, they don't get the recognition they deserve, and they despair of things that were originally trustworthy, they will do the ultimate "bad things". To a certain extent, this kind of "repressing violence with violence" is worthy of reflection by anyone, including the superior "judiciary system" and the superior "national civil servants".
No matter who they are, they should pay the corresponding price and shoulder the corresponding responsibility for whatever they do. Even if you think that no one knows, don't forget "people are doing, God is watching". In the movie, the lawyer Nicole did something that the client Clyde hated for a lifetime because of the "legal" procedure and of course he wanted to improve his "win rate". So later he was constantly threatened and feared. Nico is not the villain, in the whole movie, he is the representative of the positive "judicial system". In terms of "human affection", he is also helpless. So when his subordinates asked him if he should reflect on doing so, he began to understand. When he chatted with his boss, he also revealed that he seemed to understand Clyde's behavior. It's just that it's too late, and all persuasion is useless when the heart of hatred is endlessly "perverted". In the end, Nicole had to "violate" the legal process to end Clyde. This approach brings back the theme of the film, the law is just but also "cruel and ruthless".
The recent news is about the violence on campus. In an era of panic, the state has issued policies, and each school is equipped with "security guards" to prevent the recurrence of violent incidents. This is worth cheering, the country is thinking about safety for the people and the flowers of the country. Can such an approach prevent violence from happening? Can we put an end to the revenge of "perverted" people in society? Is it feasible to have security guards in the long run? Is it feasible to treat the symptoms but not the root cause in the long run? Why do these phenomena occur, and why do "perverted" people appear? If everything is fair in this society, if the law can be "excusable" within its inherent procedures, if those "national civil servants" with heavy responsibilities are upright and honest and serve the common people sincerely, if everyone If you can do things for the people with a clear conscience and don't go sideways without taking money from the people and the people are equal, then there may still be "perverted" people in the society?
When I was young, I couldn't understand some social phenomena. My father once said to me, "If you can't change, just adapt, because your little power cannot change the whole society, as long as you have a clear conscience." . . When I heard about these school violence incidents recently, my heart was aching. When I learned that these "perverts" were sentenced to death, my heart was happy at the same time. I wish I was a super "psychological instructor" who could cure all the mentally ill people in the world. I also hope that I am an almighty "Superman" who can save all the people in the world who are out of balance. But I can't, I'm just a little common man, all I have is a little power of prayer. I just hope that those who see my article's psychological "unbalance" can see my father's words: If you can't change, just adapt. . . I also hope that those who are "high above the ground" can feel their conscience and "serve the people" when they see my "little prayer". . .
May the soul be at peace. . .
