I don`t believe in law
Good afternoon, honorable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen.Today I want to share my view on law.
To tell the truth,alhough I am a sophomore major in law,I don`t believe in it.I mean when acting we ought not to put \"lawful \"first.Because in my mind,things that worth believing in are supposed to be noble and nice.They believe the world could be beautiful through arousing and strengthen kindne of man.But law is our last baseline and insurance,whose presumption is that human are wicked.They keep a watchful eye on the weakne of human nature,so it aim at fighting against us.Just when we have no other ways to recover,will us appeal to it.As a reasonable person,how can we regard the last resort as our faith?
In addition,we will realize that law itself has got bogged down in ineffectivene and injustice while reviewing the current events.
It is not the first time that food safety iues,which have catched great attention of the whole society in China,become the central topic of the public.With many years` paing by,statute enacted to resolve this series of problems is constantly improving and continuously pxpending .However,it has`t eliminated even discreasad the eruption of those existing problems.Today more and more poisonous substances
come into the market and turn into our foods under the supervision of law and regulations.I can`t help expecting to ask:how the law function?
Facing the rough administrative enforcement of legislation by urban-management officers,XiaJunfeng,a hawker ,killed two enforcers in self-defence.He was sentensed to death again by the judgement of the last resort,upholding the original verdict.During these trials,in support of the official,courts excluded all the testimonies of legal witnees regardle of the rights and benefits of the defendant .It is distinct corruption and a violation of law.The urban management system is obviously irrational,what`s worse,this case makes me feel that confronting unreasonable mechanism,individuals have no choice but to be sacrifice of it because of the unfair judgement.
In order to handle these social problems ,most people appeal for \"sound rule of law\".As far as they are concerned,law can offer solutions to every problemsimply and efficiently in a world struggling with rapid industrialization.
Neverthele,is legislation the source of the scandals and fundamental solutions to them?
Kant haw ever said:\"There are two things make me deeply shocked in my innermost being:the starry heavens above me and the moral law within
me.It is morality that the measurement for one`s conscience and the primary rule we ought to abide by.The requirements of morality is much stricter than those of statute.For this reason,one could be legally innocent but morally guilty.Only be strict with yourself under this discipline,shall we prevent ourselves from breaching law and regulations easily,which would be binding then.In a word,rule of morality should be underlying.Law is not everything,but just as what hooks and rope to climber ,.we can`t live without it.I am sure that a true harmonious society will be built as long as rule of law and rule of morality be joint with each other to shine over our heads.
