- Sakazuki "Akainu"

He might be a dipshit but this quote is one of the realest quotes from One Piece.

What form of justice do you personally agree with? If OP was real which philosophy would you subscribe to?

Lol nah thats unrealistic. Humans cant just come into existence and think they're the progenitor of all things good and bad. the two concepts existed long before humans were around. It's not our place to decide that. Cause after all we're only a temporary existence

Terrible philosophy since righteousness changes with the culture.

It's not unrealistic, just because we have a temporary existance. We're trying to make life peaceful and safe for everyone. That's what laws are for, if someone breaks those laws then he doesn't deserve to live(amongst society atleast).

Why should the world take care of you when you're only out for yourself?
By choosing to be a criminal. You've disqualified yourself from life amongst other humans.
Probably something like Fujitora. I like him.
What was his justice? I forgot.

There are certain universal laws among humans that are the same for all nations, groups or tribes. Only the punishment may differ in those cases.

If you aint Living then u aint living
Live well, live responsibly, live passionately but above all, live righteously.

Saying someone who breaks the law or commited a crime does not deserve to live is not righteous itself.
The quote itself is way too black and white. A man can break a law or hurt others for the benefit of helping other people. He can lie to help someone else. He can steal to feed starving children.
If anything that quote just shows arrogance.

Laws are created to meet everyone's needs. If it fails to do so then the answer isn't to disregard it. There is no excuse for breaking a law, everyone has a reason for commiting an action. I can kill someone because I didn't like the way he looked at me and if reasons are relevant then mine would be just as good as yours.

The realest quote from One Piece is the one Doflamingo said in Marineford "Pirates are evil? The Marines are righteous? These terms have always changed throughout the course of history! Kids who have never seen peace and kids who have never seen war have different values! Those who stand at the top determine what's wrong and what's right! This very place is neutral ground! Justice will prevail, you say? But of course it will! Whoever wins this war becomes justice!"

"Laws are created to meet everyones need, but they don't but still don't break the law." ok?
Since the beginning of humanity all we've done is break laws and disobey when we were unhappy. Corrupt leaders were over thrown etc. There were laws in certain countries to turn in your neighbor if he wasn't Aryan so that he would be purged. My reason to break a Law? To keep my humanity instead of obeying rules that would hurt others. If theres a law in a country that you need to kill a man once a year would you follow it? I doubt it.
A righteous man or a Law abiding man. Pick one.

You obviously like anime and manga.
Watch Code Geass. Guilty Crown.

Movies :
The purge.
The hunger games.

Documentaries:
Just google:
Life in North Korea.
Escape from North Korea.
All in all, theres no such thing that exists in this world only if you think everything is black and white. Which i think you do.

I don't agree, the law is absolute and no one is above the law. Guilty Crown suck donkey ****, basically a ripoff of Code Geass.
No thanks, I got better movies to watch, no thanks I got better documentaries to watch.

As Aokiji said, justice is a largly subjective concept, it's God's justice that counts.
