Throughout history there has been a constant debate whether it is justifiable to break the law. As we all know laws have been created to keep our society under control and to avoid chaos,corruption, theft, murder, etc. However under certain circumstances it should be justifiable to break the law. Situations where it should be reasonable to break the law would be when one has to defendthemselves from an aggressor otherwise known as self defense.

In other words this rule states that even if we are being beaten to the floor we CANNOT hit back, we can only cover ourselves and take the beatingin order to not be suspended. So pretty much we have to go back home with a black eye and a school reputation of being a coward, but at least happy because at least we’re not suspended? Does that...
