justice

Justice is the concept of moral rightness, and can pertain to law, culture, behavior, and just about anything else.

While "doing the right thing" seems a simple concept in theory, in practice it is inevitably complex. That's why you'll find numerous watchdog blogs, each dedicated to certain areas of society, who agitate, analyze and advocate regularly in order to keep the world fair. Some brave souls dedicate their lives to reporting events both fair and unfair, raising the public consciousness and allowing a wider public debate on justice in practice.

Blogs using the justice tag can be liberal, conservative, or independent, targeting civil liberties, law, the environment, human rights, animal rights, race, and a bevy of other issues. While some of them veer toward punditry, most are dedicated advocates of moral and ethical correctness, working to protect and enforce their rights and the rights of others.
