“Our legal system, including the police, is anti-Dalit and anti-poor. The death penalty laws' wrathful majesty, in blood-shot equality, deals the fatal blow on the poor not the rich, the pariah not the brahmin, the black not the white, the underdog not the top dog, the dissenter not the conformist. . . The law barks at all but bites only the poor, the powerless, the illiterate, the ignorant.” LawBlackWhitePoorDealsRichBloodDogShotsPoliceIncludingBlowIgnorantBitesPenaltiesPowerlessMajestyDeath PenaltyBarkUnderdogIlliterateLegal SystemConformistPariahsBrahmins Author:V.

To them we doubtless owe those four great pillars of Chancery jurisdiction, the injunction, the decree, the sequestration, and the commission of rebellion.” MenShouldStatesCharacterActionLawStarsProcessNaturalDealsCommonSecretFourDirectSatRebellionDespiseRoyalCouncilChamberPillarsDecreePromptsPrerogativeJurisdictionCommon Law Book:A Short History of English Law: From the Earliest Times to the End of the Year 1919 Source: A Short History of English Law: From the Earliest Times to the End of the Year 1919
