Just becasue you can't see the eyes, doesn't mean it's blind.

Tell me what you see.

Justice is not fairness.

"wait," she cautioned, "just because he is slow and impaired, does not mean he is broken or unable." They listened to the muffled sounds of his movement. The man was a glacier, unaffected by his own coldness, he moved like an eon and then without warning he would shift, with a snap.

in breaking we mourn wholeness. in wholeness we ache after change.

Can't see the eyes? There are eyes everywhere in this one!

The gas mask is very much like the one in the Doctor Who eps about the aliens who change everyone to child forms during the Blitz. With the repetition of "sense", there's a strong feeling of 'as above, so below'; the balance being used is a brass technician's one. I also notice the lines from above that look like marionette strings.

Who is judging the judge? Who is balancing the balance? Is higher justice interfering with lower justice, and if so, why?

(I don't have many thoughts on the fedora, except that it's veering toward a porkpie Frank Sinatra 1950s style, and I don't really want to think of the Rat Pack in connection with this card.)

It looks like a Wizzard hat, just at an odd angle so the longer pointy/bendy bit is bent away from us.
Agreed on the partially-face look to the mask (the Who reference).

who's fooling who?

The law is not the only route to justice.

Justice

Justice has eyes, but doesn't see as you think it would nor do those eyes appear as you would want them to. There is always a balance, there has to be otherwise there would be no reason to met out justice and is that fair?

Which do you want fairness or justice? Do you have common sense while denying your similarities?

Frivolity and formality. Sense and whimsy. Power. Justice must be sought after, searched for, detected. Not everyone is smart or clever enough to be that detective. Justice is dangerous and can suffocate you, so you must be prepared to handle it. Do you have the proper gear and teaching to handle justice?
