Does "Right" and "Just" (justified / Justice served) equate?

Asked by Yellowdog (12216points) March 5th, 2017

Two wrongs don’t make a right, or so some people say.

And, I guess, what is ‘legal’ (another concept actually, but it plays a role in most people’s definition of “Right” —because most people believe breaking the law isn’t right)

But sometimes, I feel, if the law is unjust, or if someone “screws” you and you can’t GET justice from the law…

Sometimes, we are in the predicament of having to take or get whatever we can. Or make up for it sometimes.

If we can evade or sneak around the rules or the law and not harm any innocent person—are we justified?
