	Description:		Above the Law The Ethics of Taking the Law Into Your Own Hands We are blessed today to live under a system of laws that enables our orderly and peaceful society to function. But what are we to do when the proverbial long arm of the law suddenly seems to shrink -- when a situation seems to call for us to take the law into our own hands to correct an injustice?
