LADY JUSTICE
Long ago and far away, someone asked me why do I think Lady Justice is blindfold. I hestitated, thinking , looking around the room gathering my thoughts I carefully began to answer.
Well first of all i said Lady Justice is a female, whomever blindfold her told her that there are some things, or facts you see and facts, or things you don't see.
The scales are unbalanced for the reason of she can't see. How can you balance the scales of Justice when she's blindfold. She's wearing a sword to fight injustice, however she has no idea which Justice she's fighting Justice or injustice, simply because she can't see. How is she going to fight Justice blindfolded.
Bottom line Lady Justice has to depend on her hearing, that is if she can hear, if they blindfolded her, it's possible some arguements, or facts she can't hear either. Lastly I said you know it seems that everything about Lady Justice is implied, rather than fact.
My friend looked at me as if he was astonished, he then said in all my years of Law School I've never heard that question answered this way before. My professors would often ask the class this question, no one came even close to answering this question the way you did. He laughted, and laughted the entire evening.
