H on Civil Rights
H: What is jury duty?
M: Well... [insert lengthy explanation tailored specifically to the understanding of a precocious 3 year old here]... So that's why we have jury duty.
H: [Shaking head] No. Only bad people go to jail. [After a thoughtful pause] Remember that lady who got put in jail by the two policemen?
M: You mean Rosa Parks? She wasn't bad, was she?
H: Yes she was! She didn't follow the rules.
M: Right, but the rules were bad. Just like you talked about at school. Sometimes it's ok to not follow the rules if they're not fair.
H: But she was still bad. She didn't wear her seatbelt! On May 09, 2016 at 06:59PM
