下面是电影《Godfather》片头Godfather和Bonasera之间的一段对话。讲的是Bonasera的女儿被人殴打致残，打人者被判缓刑当庭释放的案例。不合理有名的案例还有几年前O. J. Simpson案。Simpson被控杀妻但被判无罪。

很多人因为肖案判得不合理，就丧失斗争的勇气和信心。他们不知道或忘掉了一句话：不正是因为黑暗，因为没有出路，所以才要斗争的吗？

I believe in America. America has made my fortune. And I raised my daughter in the American fashion. I gave her freedom, but I taught her never to dishonor her family. She found a boyfriend; not an Italian. She went to the movies with him; she stayed out late. I didn't protest. Two months ago, he took her for a drive, with another boyfriend. They made her drink whiskey. And then they tried to take advantage of
her. She resisted. She kept her honor. So they beat her, like an animal. When I went to the hospital, her nose was a'broken. Her jaw was a'shutted, held together by wire. She couldn't even weep because of
the pain. But I wept. Why did I weep? She was the light of my life ... beautiful girl. Now she will never be beautiful again.

I went to the police, like a good American. These two boys were brought to trial. The judge sentenced them to three years in prison ... suspended sentence. Suspended sentence! They went free that very day! I stood in the courtroom like a fool. And those two bastard, they smiled at me.

Then I said to my wife, "for justice, we must go to Don Corleone."
