Difference Between the Protection of the Law and the Protection of Us All.


Protection by the law may seem to do justice, for all the immoral actions and words spoken. This is not the case, people still have hatred for the color, and laws don't protect hatred. Our world has moved forward, and freedoms were granted all. Remember, we are one nation, united, after all. We all have rights in the law, and protection from discrimination. This does not prevent people from saying what they think and hurting those who fall. The law can surely protect us, but the law does not stop hatred. And that's the difference between the protection of the law and the protection of us all.

Even though laws protect us, people still say what they please and that is never justifiable.
