Two things form the bedrock of any open society — freedom of expression and rule of law. If you don't have those things, you don't have a free country." “Nowadays the job of the judge is not to do justice. The judge is more of a functionary .@UgandanLawyer@ug_lawsociety

Law and order exist for the purpose of establishing justice and when they fail in this purpose they become the dangerously structured dams that block the flow of social progress.

The rule of law is an integral part of all civilizations, both ancient and modern civilizations. For there no civilization without the rule. Take an example most modern civilized nations e,g. #USA , #UK use the rule of law as a yardstick to measure civilization.

The clearest way to show what the rule of law means to us in everyday life is to recall what has happened when there is no rule of law..@UgandanLawyer ,@ug_lawsociety@dfkm1970
In a world divided by differences of nationality, race, colour, religion and wealth [the rule of law] is one of the greatest unifying factors, perhaps the greatest, the nearest we are likely to approach to a universal secular religion.

In such a world, the rule of law maintains things as they are. Therefore, to begin the process of change, to stop a war, to establish justice, it may be necessary to break the law, to commit acts of civil disobedience, as Southern black did, as antiwar protesters did.

Civil disobedience, as I put it to the audience, was not the problem, despite the warnings of some that it threatened social stability, that it led to anarchy. The greatest danger, I argued, was civil obedience, the submission of individual conscience to governmental authority.
