“This is what I mean when I say that social justice isn't justice: justice is about a fair and impartial process, whereas social justice is about equal outcomes. Lady Justice is blind, holding equal weights, but Lady Social Justice would have open eyes, assessing the skin color, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, and other characteristics of each party and placing her thumb on the scales accordingly, in an attempt to rectify either real or perceived, past or present injustices against one party.” — Allie Beth Stuckey
