We had an interesting discussion about justice in my class after yesterday's reading. Two examples were used from the book:
*Ben, who was Banished for trying to kill Thomas (when he was still recovering from the Changing).
*Thomas, who was given a day in the Slammer and elected a Runner after breaking the Number One Rule (and saving Alby's life...and probably Minho's, too).
Who determines justice? Were both decisions just? When is it okay to bend rules, and when shouldn't you?
